Honda Goes Electric: What to Know About the Honda 2024 Prologue

EVs on TVs 

Anyone who watched last month’s Super Bowl will probably remember a common theme across the ads, which is that most of the car commercials were for electric, rather than fuel, cars. 

According to this New York Times article, most major automakers are investing a lot of money in electric vehicles, while fuel cars, and industries dependent on their production, are seeing a decline because of this development. 

Though it may take some time, automakers will be putting in more and more effort into making electric vehicles, or EVs, a major source of revenue. 

It is pretty safe to say that electric cars will not be a fad, but will actually become a viable transportation option for many people in the future, so it is probably appropriate that Honda is naming their new electric SUV the Prologue. 

Honda’s Next Step 

Many of the electric car efforts in modern times are the result of partnerships between automobile manufacturing giants. For example, Mazda partnered with Toyota to establish a manufacturing plant in Huntsville, Alabama, where the first fruit of that loom is an electric car by the name of the Mazda CX-50. 

Honda has partnered with General Motors, or GM, to develop the 2024 Prologue. 

A mid-sized SUV that is likely to have a high-quality 100-kWh battery, with which you can expect to get about 300 miles per charge. 300 miles per charge should be ample distance given that the United States government has been investing in charging stations nationwide through a $5 billion plan to help states build EV charging stations. 

A big draw of electric vehicles is that they are environmentally friendly compared to the fuel car alternative, and the Prologue is no exception, boasting a zero-emissions drive. This makes it the prologue to Honda’s plan to have a completely zero-emissions lineup of cars by 2040, as stated on the page for the Prologue. Like it or not, EVs are here to stay.

When to Expect the Prologue 

As of now, you can probably expect to learn more about the specifics about the prologue, such as the specific under-the-hood details, sometime in late 2023. 

Slated for a 2024 release, you can be assured that Honda is working carefully to create an EV that will stack up to the high-performing EVs on the market right now, which includes the ever-popular Tesla.
