One detail elevates this Honda SUV above its below-average test numbers.
so remarkable is what it doesn’t do. So little wind and tire noise is reaching the electric SUV ’s cabin that we’re having trouble believing this is a Honda , as general interior racket has long been a brand drawback. Thing is, you’ve never seen a Honda like this.—the Prologue has a completely different exterior design, an updated driving experience, and software revisions. Honda fans can wait for the home-grown EVs to come, or they can jump in now with the Prologue.
Single-motor Prologue models make 212 hp, but our AWD dual-motor test SUV is rated at 288 hp, which is more than enough for all but the most jaded” instant launch feel isn’t as pronounced here as in the Tesla Model Y or Hyundai Ioniq 5. Acceleration from 0 to 60 mph happens in 6.0 seconds, which not surprisingly matches that of its dual-motor Chevrolet Blazer EV RS AWD cousin.
Bottom line: The Honda is merely adequate from a fast-charging perspective. Again, though, if you have access to Level 2 home charging, this won't be an issue most of the time.Road-Trip Range Test, which records how far you can drive an electric car using 95 percent of a fully charged battery at 70 mph, the Honda makes up some ground. The SUV's 230-mile distance is about the same as the Model Y and farther than the Ioniq 5 .
Space in the Prologue’s back seat is decent, though taller passengers should watch their heads entering models equipped with the glass roof. Overall, however, despite its tidy exterior dimensions, the Prolouge isn’t exactly huge inside. The smaller Tesla Model Y and Hyundai Ioniq 5 are both similarly spacious and offer more cargo volume than the longer Honda. Even the Blazer EV has slightly more space for your stuff behind the rear seats.
