Why Choose an Electric Vehicle?
EVs are becoming increasingly popular for many reasons, including:
No more gas costs
No need for oil changes
Zero tailpipe emissions
Instant torque
Potential federal and state tax incentives
The Honda Prologue EV
The Honda Prologue EV stands out due to its excellent range, responsive and smooth driving experience, and accessible MSRP. Under the body of this EV, you can find an advanced Honda electric battery with 85 kWh of capacity and the ability to travel nearly 300 miles on a full charge.1 This SUV is as intuitive as it is eco-conscious with Google built-in services and future-forward tech, like the HondaLink app.
Battery Information
The latest iteration of the Honda Prologue comes in one of three versatile models, each with the same 85 kWh battery capacity. You'll also have access to a regenerative braking paddle, which allows you to control how much energy is captured and applied to the battery when you decelerate, increasing the range and decreasing wear on your brakes.
Range
The Honda Prologue EV can travel hundreds of miles on a fully charged battery, but the exact number varies depending on the drivetrain and trim:
- EX & Touring with front-wheel drive: 296 miles1
- EX & Touring with all-wheel drive: 281 miles2
- Elite with all-wheel drive: 273 miles3
Charging
You can charge on a Level 1 charger at home, which can top off a few miles overnight. You can have a Level 2 charger installed in your home, which will boost your Prologue up by about 34.1 miles for every hour of charging.4 Level 3 charging from a DC fast charging station is the most ideal when you're pushed for time, allowing you to power your Prologue battery from 20% to 80% in just 35 minutes.4
Interior
Slip inside the Honda Prologue, and you'll be met with a user-centric cabin with rich standard appointments like heated front seats, two-zone climate control, and a 10-way power driver's seat. Available upgrades include a leather-wrapped steering wheel, memory settings for the driver's seat, and a Head-Up Display.
Specs & Performance
The performance and specifications that a Honda Prologue offers depend entirely on the drivetrain of the model. With front-wheel drive, the Honda electric vehicles make 212 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque. With all-wheel drive, that horsepower rating gets bumped to 288, and you'll get a boosted 333 pound-feet of instant torque.
Cargo & Dimensions
With five seats, the Honda Prologue is spacious. Behind the second row is up to 25.2 cubic feet of cargo room for your groceries, luggage, or shopping bags. If you don't need the rear seats, you can fold them down and get a maximum of 57.7 cubic feet of cargo room on the base model.
How Does a Honda EV Work?
Honda electric vehicles function using a single-motor or dual-motor setup instead of the familiar gas-combustion engine one may expect to find under the hood. With this Honda EV technology, the model can operate with either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, but you can always expect instantaneous torque.
When properly charged with a Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 charging solution, you can expect your Honda electric SUV's battery to work in tandem with the motor or motors to produce its impressive range, horsepower, and torque specs. Plus, its regenerative braking technology and paddle allow you to improve fuel efficiency.
Honda EV Charging
Honda EVs produce hundreds of miles of all-electric confidence that gets replenished efficiently in a few ways: a Level 1, Level 2, or a Level 3 DC fast charger. Level 1 is generally the slowest method to charge your EV but can be an easy way to add a small amount of range overnight via a 120-volt wall socket. With a 240-volt system, a Level 2 charger can boost the speed and convenience of charging your EV, allowing you to power up at home or in a public location.
A Level 3 DC fast charger is the speediest option when traveling, as you will generally be able to power up your EV within minutes, not hours. These are unavailable for home use, but there are thousands of nationwide public charging stations, thanks to the growing network of EVgo and Electrify America, that are available to refill your battery on the go.
Honda EV Battery
At the time of this writing, Honda EV models come equipped with a large lithium-ion 85 kWh battery pack that allows for long-distance travel and excellent charging times. Looking toward the future; however, Honda engineers are now taking steps to leave a net zero carbon footprint by developing and utilizing solid-state batteries in their Honda EV cars. This shift in the making is anticipated to enable a safer battery with higher capacity and output.
