2024 Honda Prologue | Consumer Reports

The all-electric 2024 Honda Prologue SUV uses the same basic platform as the 2024 Acura ZDX and is the Honda brand’s first U.S. model that’s solely powered by electricity. It’s based on the General Motors Ultium electric vehicle platform as part of a partnership between Honda and GM.

You forgot to mention this is a one off partnership! Honda has already abandoned this platform for the next EV..

[@jazzfan7491]

This car is too big

[@Graeaeae]

You just convinced me not to get it. Thank you

[@chriszawertany5242]

Honda Blazer-its a GM Jack.

[@wholeNwon]

Too much $$$ and would I trust GM components?

[@42luke93]

I went in it today and then even had the same chimes of GM. I could tell right away, but this is a good move on Honda since they don’t really want to invest in this.

[@thejake8099]

So does the price and GM components mean you won't be purchasing?

[@michaelp.3485]

Imagine buying this thinking you are getting Japanese quality, only to find out later it is a GM...

[@slipstreamvids7422]

Imagine someone saying this in 1970

[@NeoFGD]

“There are some Honda Elements…” Pun intended?

[@junehanzawa5165]

This is what Honda gets for not believing in EVs from the start. They are forced to rely on other auto manufacturers to catch up. And GM is not what you call a leader in electrification. Any company that kills its own EV1 and sells the technology to an oil company, is not a company you want to rely on with electrification efforts.

[@adampowell3503]

Frunk? Spare tire?

[@mikerepairsstuff]

Can’t wait for the anniversary edition of the Honda Prologue.

[@theodorpeters974]

Why is the gear shifter on the wheel? 😭

[@anotheran]

This is going to be as awesome as the Toyota bZ4X

[@grriceman782]

This is late to the party and it’s a GM … double whammy. Remember Honda’s collaboration with Isuzu … pathetic!

[@Buc_Stops_Here]

Comments are brutal. GM's powertrain is proving to be pretty good. The software is the problem. Fortunately, Honda is doing its own software, so they are avoiding all the problems with GM's EVs. The fact it has Apple CarPlay/Android Auto is a good start because GM's software does not have that - but Honda's obviously will. Gm's lame excuse that their software is better and safer just does not hold true - and Honda is evidence of this.

[@kippaseo8027]

Not since they they were selling re badged Isuzu Rodeos has there been a more unholy alliance. I'm glad I'm a Toyota guy

[@artdarnell]

Me too

[@arcanondrum6543]

I take it that you never heard of the Prizm?

[@hereigoagain5050]

Looks great! Glad it doesn't have the goat-horns tail-lights from the CR-V

[@Tzoid1]

Nice Honda advert. They on CR donor list also, like Ford?

[@BTC909]

Ultium is known for "all over the place" charging rates when DC Fast charging.

[@angeloflowers2006]

I would sit in this thing for the first time and still dream it was a 2021 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera- Brutal Coupe

[@tpop3723]

My local Acura dealer is crapping their pants because they are only going all electric.

[@gene978]

218 BHP and $48K to START? Yeah, I’ll pass

[@danhoang6335]

If I was to buy an electric car, I buy a used Tesla now from Hertz. I priced out a used 2022 with 80k in mileage for 23 thousands dollars. Factor in 4k in rebate then I get an established electric car brand for less than 20k. Why try an expensive unproven electric car that will certainly loose more than half of its value in three years?

[@thejake8099]

Go buy the Hertz Tesla, every manufacturer was unproven... including Tesla, and have you seen their resale value? Well, if you're looking at Hertz, obviously you have.

[@TheDigitalGuerrilla]

Good luck with the software

[@johnnylongfeather3086]

Haha

[@LuisUrbieta]

Hi​@@johnnylongfeather3086

[@42luke93]

It's insane All electronic the engine compartment

[@michaelmackey754]

That kind of sucks that they got in bed with General Motors

[@naegwut]

😮

[@Tokamak3.1415]

These comments are brutal. Maybe Honda caught on that they lost track of their user base and made this is a one off collaboration. The bezels on the upper screen are wider than those on my 2008 Odyssey. My 2008 Odyssey had electrical issue but I can only imagine this Prologue is going to be a magnitude wore.

[@thejake8099]

These posters were never going to buy an electric vehicle anyway. Can't afford it and are scared of being left behind..

[@itox85]

the name proloque is just like saying "hi i am an experimental product", i know i might sound stupid

[@BTC909]

2024 Chevrolet Prologue

[@someperson7]

Meh, I would buy a Honda to not have a GM. Way too expensive and you are getting charged extra to cram that car with features I don't even care about or actively would want removed. Dislike. Do not want.

[@GoldenDragon-ox2mc]

Price will decrease in within two or three years

[@AR-nz1yh]

Ouch starting at 47k Me myself being a Honda guy. I will buy Tesla before that.

[@fatbart8551]

I’ll take a used Tesla over a new Prologue.

[@BTC909]

This is a 2 year vehicle and already planned to be replaced.

[@FLJAMESFL]

Why I’m the world would Honda do anything with GM? Total GM junk 😢

[@je9237]

No!

[@FrankGallagherr]

Tesla is the best car company ever! No gas stations, No oil changes, No smog check, No corrupt dealership, No catalytic converter and as fast as a $650,000 Lamborghini.

[@DANIEL_eltravieso]

Too pricey 👎

[@saabreplay7553]

Hell no I would never buy that pile of crap. You gotta be kidding me. I would buy a Toyota long before that crap

[@nataphotoOfficial]

Toyota does not have a reliable competing product for this or any BEV category. In the Asia market, there are comments on the Hilux BEV but is based on the prototype Hilux BEV of previous shows to competitive with the highly popular Isuzu DMax, not really a reliable source. Regarless of the power source, one thing is sure, the future IS electric and... they are (all traditional OEMs) are laaate! 😮

[@carlsmith5545]

The Honda Prologue offers a range of only 260 miles with a starting price of $47,000, though it will be possible to push the price to around $60,000 fully equipped. That's a lot of money for a short and shitty range of only 269 miles. This would not be the automobile for the serious traveler as i am. With over 6000 miles of traveling i do a year, i need range. So instead of buying a car for $47,000 to $60,000 for a range of only 260 miles, i paid $41,000 dollars for a car that provides me with a range of 570 miles. 3 to 5 minutes of downtimes and not 20 to 30 plus minutes of downtimes and paid off at 41K. EVs definitely needs to be improved before i buy one. If china can come out with EVs that offer ranges of over 600 miles, trust me so can the United States of America. Till then, I'll keep my jaguar XJl and leave well enough alone......

[@iron-gamerstv]

Another high $$ EV money grab, nope.

[@kneawah]

Dude. Stick price is higher but cost of driving is so cheap. I went from a 2009 Subaru Impreza 2.5i to an Audi Q4. The price tag felt pretty high but i did get a pretty good deal. Anyway my wife and I used for spend $350 on gas. Now my “gas” bill averages $20 a month. I was going to buy an Outback instead until my Mom told me it costs her around $65 to fill up. That would have increased my gas bill even more than what i was used to. The car payment on the Outback was $150 less than my Q4 but factor in my gas saving and I’m getting a better value. Another option is used. My mate got a used ioniq 5 with 18k miles for $30k before oregon rebate. Ended up costing her $22.5k. Battery was at 100% health. She swapped from a Ford Fiesta, commutes from Portland to Vancouver everyday. She charges at her apartment 2 times a week for under 20 cents a kwhr. Factor cost of ownership and ev’s are less of a premium than people think.

[@josmo5770]

Looks great sadly it's electric

[@yummytummy88]

Over price for a Japanese EV.

[@Noah_E]

It's not Japanese. It uses GM's Ultium platform, which means it will have a ton or recalls and problems caused from poor quality control and cheap engineering and materials.
