The 2025 Honda Prologue marks a significant milestone in Honda’s electric vehicle journey, offering a blend of enhanced performance, advanced technology, and refined comfort. With improved power output, extended driving range, and a distinctive design, it has become a compelling choice for electric vehicle enthusiasts looking for a reliable and stylish alternative in the budding sector.
On the performance, the Prologue delivers notable improvements. The front-wheel-drive (FWD) models produce 220 horsepower, a modest increase over earlier iterations. All-wheel-drive (AWD) variants step it up with 300 horsepower and 355 lb-ft of torque, pushing acceleration times to under six seconds from 0 to 60 mph. Range figures also impress, with the highest-rated model achieving up to 308 miles per charge. EPA-rated AWD versions range between 283 and 294 miles, depending on configuration.
Built on GM’s Ultium platform, the Prologue provides a sophisticated, quiet ride that emphasizes comfort over sportiness. Honda has chosen a more conservative approach to EV dynamics, resulting in handling that is smooth but cautious. Despite its composed driving experience, early owners have reported minor mechanical issues, such as clicking CV axles and occasional brake noise—nothing severe, but enough to warrant attention.
Inside, the Prologue blends intelligent functionality with understated elegance. The cabin features two large screens measuring 11 to 12 inches, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, wireless phone charging, and a choice between EX, Touring, and Elite trims.
While not exceptionally spacious, the raised seating position, abundance of USB ports, and clever use of the center console create a sense of thoughtful design. Storage is adequate, though it trails competitors like the Tesla Model Y in both cargo volume and rear seating room.
Top-tier trims elevate the experience with premium features including a panoramic moonroof, a heads-up display, advanced audio systems, and DC fast-charging capability up to 150 kW. Honda’s safety suite, Honda Sensing, comes standard, enhancing driver confidence and support. These additions position the Prologue as a high-tech but pragmatic EV with a focus on reliability.
Feedback from early owners has generally been positive, especially regarding the vehicle’s quiet cabin and dependable performance. However, concerns remain around battery efficiency in colder climates, subtle acoustic inconsistencies, and isolated hardware glitches. Some buyers also feel the Prologue is priced slightly above what its feature set justifies, especially when compared to more dynamic EVs boasting superior charging infrastructure.
