The Honda Prelude is back for 2026 — and it’s not just about nostalgia. This all-new hybrid-electric sports coupe blends a two-motor hybrid powertrain with chassis hardware from the Civic Type R. With 200 hp, 232 lb-ft of torque, adaptive dampers, Brembo brakes, and the debut of Honda’s innovative S+ Shift system, the Prelude promises a true grand touring experience.
In this video, we’ll break down everything you need to know: design, powertrain, S+ Shift, Type R suspension, interior tech, and safety features. The Prelude hits U.S. dealerships in late fall 2025.
