About the Honda Prelude

Perennially regarded as one of the most respected and celebrated nameplates in the history of the Honda brand, the legendary Prelude is back after over 2 decades missing from the model lineup. Returning for the 2026 model year, the sixth-generation Prelude is equipped with an advanced dual-motor hybrid powertrain that combines efficiency with performance. When it first arrived back in 1978, it was immediately evident that the Prelude was far from your ordinary sports coupe. This tradition lives on in the next-gen Prelude as well. Painstakingly engineered to push the boundaries of performance, the Prelude remains remarkably comfortable thanks to its 2+2 seating configuration. Infused with revolutionary technology and the confidence of driver-assistive innovations, the Honda Prelude is ready to steal the hearts of a new breed of enthusiasts.


What the Critics Say

The Prelude’s strong front-end grip shouldn’t come as a surprise, given that it uses the Civic Type R’s dual-axis front strut-type suspension and a slightly quicker version of its steering rack. The shared hardware, which also includes the Type R’s brakes and adaptive dampers, means the Prelude’s steering feel is every bit as communicative as its racier counterpart’s.” – Car and Driver
While the Type R with which it shares some components is focused on high performance track attacking, the Prelude was never meant to that type of car. Think of it more as a tuned-up Civic Hybrid coupe. The focus is more on handling and a smooth ride in a 2+2 with the same track width as a Type R but a shorter wheelbase.” – MotorTrend
