Honda is Ready to Roll Out Its Newest Machine: The Prologue

Honda is set to introduce its newest machine, the Prologue, an all-electric SUV that showcases the company's commitment to electrification. This latest addition has been co-developed with General Motors (GM) and serves as a stepping stone for Honda's entry into the electric vehicle market. The Prologue's name aptly reflects its role as a pioneer in Honda's electrified future, and its design is the result of collaboration between Honda's LA-based design team.

The Prologue's design takes inspiration from the Honda e, with clean and simple lines that have been applied to a larger and more mainstream machine. The exterior features a panoramic roof and 21-inch wheels at all four corners, giving it a sleek and modern appearance. In terms of dimensions, the Prologue rides on a 121.8 inch wheelbase, which is eight inches longer and five inches wider than the new 2023 Honda CRV. This increased size allows for more interior space, similar to that found in the Passport.

The interior of the Prologue boasts an 11-inch digital driver display and an 11.3-inch infotainment screen as standard equipment. The layout is reminiscent of other fresh Honda models, such as the Civic, and provides a clean and organized driving experience. The powertrain for the Prologue has been developed in conjunction with GM's Ultium platform, which also underpins the Chevrolet Blazer EV. This shared technology means that the Prologue will be available in various drivetrain configurations, including front-wheel drive (FWD), rear-wheel drive (RWD), and all-wheel drive (AWD) options.

Honda has revealed plans to begin selling the Prologue in 2024, with further details expected to emerge over the coming months. In addition, the company will introduce a new lineup of more affordable electric vehicles in 2027, marking an important step towards its goal of becoming a completely carbon-neutral company by 2050. To achieve this ambitious target, Honda aims to launch 30 new electric vehicles globally by 2030.

The Prologue represents an exciting milestone for Honda as it embarks on its journey towards electrification. By co-developing the vehicle with GM and leveraging their shared technology, Honda is able to gain valuable experience in the rapidly evolving electric vehicle market. As the company continues to invest in this area, it is clear that the Prologue will play a significant role in shaping Honda's future.

Honda's plans for an all-electric lineup by 2040 and carbon neutrality by 2050 are both ambitious and achievable goals. The introduction of the Prologue marks the beginning of this journey, and with its impressive features and design, it is sure to leave a lasting impression on potential buyers. As Honda continues to push the boundaries of innovation and sustainability, the Prologue serves as a beacon for the company's commitment to electrification and reducing its environmental footprint.
