The Honda Prelude is Back

The Honda Prelude is back—and better than ever. After a 25-year absence, Honda has reimagined its legendary sports coupe for the hybrid era. Now available at our dealership in [Your City], the all-new Prelude combines striking design, advanced e:HEV hybrid technology, and exhilarating performance, delivering a driving experience like no other.

Whether navigating city streets, cruising the motorway, or enjoying weekend drives, the new Honda Prelude 2026 offers responsive handling, premium comfort, and cutting-edge technology. Every detail is designed to maximize the joy of driving for both driver and passengers.

Hybrid Performance with Honda e:HEV

At the heart of the new Prelude is Honda’s advanced e:HEV hybrid system, pairing a 2.0-litre petrol engine with two electric motors and a lithium-ion battery. Together, they deliver 184PS and 315Nm of torque, allowing the Prelude to accelerate from 0–62mph in just 8.2 seconds.

Honda’s innovative S+ Shift system simulates eight-speed gear changes, giving drivers a sports-car-like experience even though the hybrid doesn’t use a traditional gearbox. The e:HEV system automatically selects the most efficient mode—EV, Hybrid, or Engine Drive—ensuring smooth power delivery, responsive acceleration, and impressive fuel efficiency in every situation.

Sleek Coupe Styling Meets Aerodynamic Precision

Inspired by the grace and simplicity of gliders, the Prelude’s exterior features flowing lines, slim adaptive LED headlights, a full-width rear light bar, and sculpted body panels. Standard 19-inch alloy wheels with bold blue Brembo brake calipers complete the look.

The aerodynamic design isn’t just for aesthetics. Carefully engineered body panels and integrated vents enhance stability, grip, and handling at all speeds, making the Prelude as dynamic as it is stylish.

Driver-Focused, Premium Interior

Inside, the Prelude combines sporty design with everyday practicality. Highlights include:

  • 10.2-inch fully digital driver display with customisable graphics
  • 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
  • Unique front seats tailored for driver support and passenger comfort
  • Premium materials and tactile switchgear throughout

Despite its sleek coupe styling, the Prelude offers four seats, a hatchback tailgate, and up to 663 litres of luggage space, making it practical for daily use or weekend adventures.

Agile Handling Inspired by Civic Type R

The new Prelude delivers agile, precise handling with GT-level comfort, thanks to:

  • Adaptive dampers for responsive control
  • Multi-link rear suspension for stability and smooth ride quality
  • Agile Handling Assist (AHA) for enhanced cornering performance
  • Tuned electric power steering for excellent road feel

This combination makes the Prelude fun to drive on twisty roads while remaining comfortable and composed for longer journeys.

Advanced Safety with Honda SENSING

Safety is at the forefront of the new Prelude, featuring the latest Honda SENSING. Key features include:

  • Adaptive Cruise Control
  • Lane Keeping Assist
  • Blind Spot Monitoring
  • Traffic Sign Recognition
  • Cross Traffic Monitor

Combined with a reinforced crash structure and 10 airbags, the Prelude provides comprehensive protection for drivers, passengers, and pedestrians.
