Power That Packs a Punch

The Honda Prologue Elite EV doesn’t whisper—it roars. The AWD model I drove has 300 horsepower and 355 lb-ft of torque. That’s a significant boost from its predecessor. It’s quick off the line and confident on the highway.

Range That Impresses

Honda has upped the ante. The 2025 Prologue now boasts a top-class EPA range rating of 308 miles. That’s a 12-mile increase from last year. Even in freezing conditions, the Prologue holds its own. It’s a road-trip ready EV that doesn’t shy away from long distances.

Charging: Quick and Convenient

On the go? No problem. The Prologue supports DC fast charging at rates up to 150 kW. It can add 65 miles of range in about 10 minutes. However, that’s less time than it takes to grab a coffee.

Please note that this doesn’t happen in the freezing cold. Therefore, I can’t wait to test this summer.

Driving Dynamics: Smooth Operator

Behind the wheel, the Prologue feels composed. Its suspension is ok and it was also AWD. It really did handle quite well in many different terrain. It’s not trying to be a sports car. Instead, it offers a comfortable, confident ride that Honda drivers will appreciate.

Tech-Forward Interior

Step inside, and you’re greeted by a tech lover’s paradise. Dual 12.3-inch screens dominate the dashboard. Google built-in comes standard, as does wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It’s a a connected cockpit that keeps you in touch with the world.

Honda Prologue Elite EV Price Point: Competitive but Not Cheap

Starting at $47,400 before incentives, the Prologue isn’t cheap. Yet it’s the Honda EV on the block! It’s a Honda feel and everything. However, it qualifies for the full $7,500 federal tax credit. That brings the effective starting price down to a more palatable $39,900.

      

The Verdict: A Solid Contender

The 2025 Honda Prologue is more than just Honda’s first serious EV effort. It’s a well-rounded electric SUV that delivers on range, performance, and technology. While it may not be the most affordable option, it offers a compelling package for those ready to make the electric leap.

In a rapidly evolving EV landscape, the Honda Prologue Elite EV stands out. It combines Honda’s reputation for reliability with cutting-edge electric technology and a Bose stereo system. It’s not just keeping up with the competition—it’s charging ahead.
