I am Driving The New Honda Prelude Tomorrow, What Do You Need To Know?

I am at the moment in beautiful Oceanside, California, for a multi-day occasion Honda has placed on so automotive journalists like myself (clearly one of the best, coolest one) can drive the facelifted Pilot SUV and, extra importantly, the brand new Prelude coupe. I am driving the Pilot immediately and getting behind the wheel of the Prelude tomorrow, which implies I’ve acquired time to ask you what you wish to find out about it, and you have got time to offer me some solutions. So, what do you wish to know concerning the new Honda Prelude?

As a refresher, it is a two-door coupe utilizing the powertrain of the Civic hybrid, however with chassis parts from the Civic Sort Rand distinctive options like Honda’s S+ simulated shift system. The Prelude additionally has a nicer inside than the Civic, with superior houndstooth-patterned seats, a again seat that is usable for kids, and a fairly large cargo space accessed by a liftback hatch.

There’s been a number of on-line discourse across the Preludeto place it mildly, however I am fairly rattling excited. I feel the Prelude seems actually good, and we already know its hybrid powertrain is nice, plus we all know all these chassis bits are actually nice. It may not be the type of Prelude Honda stans have been hoping for, however I feel it is a very interesting bundle. I imply, who does not need 45 mpg from their comparatively inexpensive sports activities automobile?

The Prelude solely is available in one absolutely loaded trim, and it looks as if all the vehicles that Honda has for us to drive are within the vibrant Increase Blue Pearl coloration with the white and blue leather-based inside, which is the colour scheme I would need anyway. So there’s not a lot so that you can ask about in that regard. However do you wish to know concerning the design particulars? The way it drives? What it is like as a freeway cruiser? One thing tremendous nerdy that I would by no means consider? Let me know within the feedback beneath, and I will do my finest to reply them in my evaluate subsequent week (or, should you’re fortunate, as a direct reply again to your remark).
