Honda Rumored To Revive Prelude Title For Future Electrical Coupe

If I owned a automotive firm, I’d give attention to beginning out with one good automotive. It must be sporty, to ascertain the model’s character and act as a halo product, however nonetheless comparatively inexpensive — if nobody’s shopping for your first automotive, you don’t have the funds for to make a second. I’d attempt to mix the completely good appears to be like of one thing just like the fifth-generation Honda Prelude with the entertaining driving expertise of the fifth-generation Honda Prelude. In fact, it must have reliability on par with the most effective of them, benchmarking a automotive just like the Honda Prelude, however I’d make it electrical — like… the Honda Prelude? Dangle on.

New rumors out of Japan say that Honda might revive the Prelude badge for a GR86-fighting electrical coupe. Is that this all wishful considering? Most likely! Does that imply I need it any much less? Completely not.

Greatest Automotive’s rumor states that Honda will comply with the outgoing NSX with an all-electric mannequin, one thing even Acura’s higher-ups have hinted at. But it surely additionally talks about an entry-level compatriot to the halo automotive, a extra attainable electrical two-door to reach close to the top of the last decade. We might have to attend till then to see if Greatest Automotive acquired it proper or not, however don’t be shocked if the rumor doesn’t pan out.

Although, don’t be shocked if it does, both. Honda’s been a little bit of a laggard to the EV sport (no, the EV Plus doesn’t depend), and its Prologue crossover is closely based mostly in GM’s elements bin. If the Massive H needs to deliver its enjoyable-driving character over to EVs, it may do rather a lot worse than a brand new Prelude.
