I work at a Honda Dealership here in Jacksonville, NC! I think the Prologue is a very good looking SUV, and will attract attention for sure!! The price is a little on the high side for some buyers and will slow sales in some markets!

Honda has a winner here and will sell as many as they can build. Good luck buying one at MSRP.

Looks great but the partnership between GM and Honda has ended which spells doom for this model, wouldn't buy... Great review btw!

Another great review. It would be interesting to know how the charging capacity when doing long distance trips. I recently travelled in an EV with a supercharger capacity, it was fast and kept us on the road relatively quick. Does the Prologue have the capacity for high speed charging? Actually Ford will or has alreay introduced supercharging capabilities on some of their EVs.

as the review said - Honda has its own supply chain on this, so it should be just fine and it is nice to know that GM will continue on with the platform for many years apparently if you do hold onto it for a long time - with EVs many lease as a mitigation to most being in a evolutionary track and its uncertain for most looking to the longer term ownership.

I would really like it if, in these 'utility' vehicles, you provided more detail on the cargo space, including a standard metric like the number of golf bags or say, toilet paper. Also, I was born in 1971 and live in Québec, would really really like you to provide the space figure in litres. I have a rough idea of what a cubic foot might be but boy I know what a litre is, and I think anyone who has bought a 2 litre of pop in N America understands how much 100 of those bottles are etc. Excellent review and man I hear you that the Ariya is a better choice but the Prologue has a certain something.

I’m hoping you’re wrong about the time frame and that Honda gets access much sooner. Otherwise, it’s off the buy list until then.

Prologue looks a lot better than those four alternatives you named, in my opinion, much cleaner styling. Well done Honda! Partnering with GM on the platform brings it to market sooner, that is a good thing. If you don't trust GM, fair enough, there are alternatives...

You can get a CRV Hybrid for $15k less, more cargo and interior space, similar power, farther range, and it’s made 100% by Honda. Not to mention I think this is VERY expensive for what you get. Low range, cheap materials from GM, and an exterior the size of an Odyssey with an interior of an HRV?!? Insane. I truly think this will be very unsuccessful.
