Alyssa, your camera work is top notch! Love that you back away and zoom in so the car is proportionate. So many people rely on .5x eliminating the ability to truly see the vehicle. Props! Thank you!! 🙌🏼 👏🏼

And Alyssa stayed admirably calm while Kyle was testing the Prologue's stability by throwing it abruptly into cornering... watching him driving reminded me of me at 16-17yo.

Have a Rivian and love the front trunk..groceries, camping gear, dirty stuff, etc.

[@AnonymousFreakYT]

Yep, I've used the front trunks on all my EVs. (BMW i3, Tesla Model S with that glorious original monstrous frunk, Ford Mach-E, Rivian R1T.) They're great for dirty things, for "store things like charge cord, first aid kit, etc that I don't want rolling around the cargo area," and for groceries!

I don't know about that. My first EV was a Hyundai Ioniq classic 28 KWh. No 12 Volt issues about that. Recently, for 2 months, I own a Kia e Niro 64 KWh and also no problem with the 12 Volt issues again? If I have to side in the car for 10 minutes or so, I turn off the lights and let the EV run normally. Or I turn it totally off and wait in between the times. You can't wait in your car if it runs only on you 12 V battery. It drains like crazy! And also turn on automatically support charging 12 V battery mode!

I personally drive an ICE Honda currently and looking in the near future to move to a BEV. But this is a GM vehicle with all of the issues that go with that. You cant currently beat the Model Y RWD for pricing, quality and features. This vehicle is a no for me. Thanks for reviewing and providing insight.

[@MountainManGuy]

Don't listen to @Cjdergrosse. I own a '23 MYP and it's anything but cheap. It's a quality machine and built really well. I've been underneath this thing and removed the underbody panels, and I've removed some of the interior panels when wiring an aftermarket amp. This thing is put together very well. Much better than a lot of other vehicles I've worked on.

Tesla's did indeed used to have their issues with build quality when they first began, that's expected from a brand new company, but has since been resolved as they improved their models generation after generation. Their latest Model 3 Highland shames most legacy vehicles at that price point. Yes, very expensive luxury vehicles such as Mercedes in the $100,000 range still have better premium builds, but that's why you pay all that extra dough.

The front trunk is brilliant in the cold when you have leftover food from a restaurant or refrigerated or frozen groceries. Plus your restaurant food won't make your car smell like it

The front trunk is useful to store valuables while parked.

[@jorgecintron9674]

I love the front trunks on both of my EV’s. I always put take out in frunk so I don’t stink up the car. Also the door to get into the house from the garage is right in front of the frunks, perfect for groceries. I don’t have to back in or walk around to the back. Great for when it’s raining too. More storage is a must for us. These young reviewers don’t have kids so I can understand why they don’t care.

[@marioseoul]

Funny, I distinctly remember one of the first times I saw a Model S about 10 years ago, a guy came out of a Pagliacci Pizza branch in Seattle and put the pizza in his frunk. "The pizza goes in the frunk, eh?" I asked in admiration. Yeah, he replied, the smell wafts in through the whole cabin. Guess compartments have been separated a bit more since then. ;-)

10:58 - I love using the front trunk on my Model Y. There are many things I use it for. * If I need to be able to use something without having to unload the cargo in the back of the car to get to the underfloor storage. (IE: Charging cable, tire inflator, etc.) * For holding food without having to worry about it smelling up the cabin interior. Also, if it spills it's easier to clean up. * For storing valuables that you don't want other's to see. It's easy to smash a window and grab a laptop bag from the backseat, but thieves won't bother trying to rip open the front trunk.

Side note for Ultium vehicles. They will connect to a hotspot and use that connection exclusively for everything from infotainment to navigation to supercruise data, etc. So even if you let the data connection subscription lapse or 4G gets phased out it will still connect to a 5G (or 6G at that point) hotspot. I already do this now with a verizon 5G hotspot because AT&T sucks where I am.

My only concern is if local Honda dealerships will be knowledgeable enough about this to service it in 5-10 years. Not only is it a niche EV, it's from an entirely different company/manufacturer that they've already said they won't continue the partnership with.

[@EUC-lid]

Honda techs are familiar with series hybrids, which are essentially EVs with more complexity. Although, if it’s anything like when Honda sold the old Passport (an Isuzu Rodeo), they’ll just have a porter or tow truck take the car across town to a Chevy dealer to let the local Ultima techs deal with it. I worked as a porter at a Honda dealer in the late 90s and would drop off Passports at the Isuzu dealer several times a week. They were huge POSs that enjoyed frequent major failures and long-time Honda owners were complaining about cheap truck ‘features’ (leaks, creaks, rattles, terrible handling, etc).

[@joshreed1216]

odds are this will be a short run vehicle. 5 years tops. It will be replaced with something honda built from scratch. This was only a joint venture to get the tech with GM. There is a reason the venture has been cut off before the car has been released. GMs EV track record is not good. Could you imagine if the prologue came out before blazer and it was the one that ended up with a stop sale. It would be bad for their first ev to be a horrible PR run. Its already concerning how much this things launch is being pushed back and that they wont let them charge them on the test drives.

[@sparkysho-ze7nm]

Points to ponder

[@Nickkenf1]

I was a Honda person for many years before switching to electric. My concern is that GM doesn’t have the greatest track record for quality and longevity, we’re on the opposite end Honda has a track record similar to Toyota where you see many of them driven to 300,000 miles easily. as a Honda person for most of my life I would never consider purchasing this vehicle knowing that it was GM underneath, I would consider purchasing Honda underneath… with GM switches, because I’ve had multiple Hondas that I’ve driven past 250,000 miles.

Your ideas regarding Honda vs GM quality are 20-30 years out of date.

Except for they’re not. GM is shit, Ford is even more shit and for the last 30 years Honda can drive three times longer than either of those brands with 10% of the issues. But we all have our opinions.

Seems very comparable to the ID4. But with the ‘24s coming out it doesn’t seem like there’s anything the Prologue does better. It’s got a bigger battery so it’ll have a little more range but I don’t see any other area where it outperforms the ID4. I guess it does have a 120v outlet which I don’t believe the ID4 will have.

[@jerrycoleman4970]

You missed (glossed over, actually) one very important feature the Prologue has that the Blazer does not have: Car Play. I drive a Bolt, my son drives an i4, and my daughter-in-law drives. Polestar 2. Neither of us, nor anyone else in our family would even consider a Blazer, Lyriq, Equinox, or any other GM Hybrid because GM does not offer Car Play on their EV’s; whereas the Prologue features Car Play. I can’t speak for Android phone users, but not one single iPhone user I know would ever give up Car Play.

[@dcam456]

I personally think Honda is wrong that current Honda owners will transition to this, especially once they learn it’s really a GM product. Devoted Honda owners will know something isn’t right as soon as they sit in it. Honda owners buy “Honda” vehicles not a GM vehicle with a Honda badge.

They bought the old rebadged Isuzu Rodeo (Passport) back in the 90s. We had a lot of Honda faithful folks angry over it. I wouldn’t be surprised if it sent some of them to different dealers/brands.

[@joshreed1216]

Agreed. Honda loyalist buy them because of reliability. This is an expensive vehichle and has no HONDA guts with GM having a bad track record with EVs. There is no guarantee on reliability here. This will be a very short run vehicle most likely.

@@joshreed1216 love the negativity. Thing has not even hit the showrooms and the whining already starts. I doubt Honda would put their name on it when it was total garbage.

[@randomcheese1719]

Honda wouldn't sell it if they didn't think it was a good product.

[@EUC-lid]

@@heiner71 did you not watch the review? If you did, did you ignore every negative? Did you ignore the overheat warnings or the fact that reviewers weren’t allowed to charge them?

A lot of the early "issues" with Hummer EVs was the trucks sat for 3-6 months in a lot in Flint and the 12V batteries were dead and likely ruined from an extended discharge.

my favorite part is the filthy hand print on the c pillar

Glad I picked up a Bolt EUV while GM works out the bugs of Ultium over the next couple years.

[@jackryder6732]

Great review I feel cabin is noisy and suspension is it soft as crv?

[@Sasparillafizz]

They said it was quiet during the drive on the highway.

The extra space in the front might be for heat and airflow management.

[@JoeyBlogs007]

Looks good, but the touch screen interface needs improvement.

[@JoeyBlogs007]

It is only pre production, so difficult to have a firm opinion.

[@michaelmlt]

38:38 time stamp - the homelink support website indicates a GM product. 😂

[@steveinoz8188]

Does the Honda version have "software" problems too?

[@umphstein4629]

manual charge port access is a great ideain case you are totally out of charge as you pull up, that will happen to someone and it will be at the most inconvient time lol.

[@enriquecorredera4441]

The combination of frunk and dog mode is extremely useful on the Model Y. Say you have your dog with you and you have to make a couple stops on the way back from the grocery store. You can put the groceries in the frunk without risking the dog getting to them, or driving him insane cos he wants them so badly.

49:00 The Honda Passport was super popular back in the day. This might do well even though it’s someone else’s badge engineered product.

[@tommyto212]

Most eVs' Nav/Ente should have Swype onscreen keyboard like the Android Keyboard

[@BarryObaminable]

You will be able to use Comma2 Self driving on this.
