The Honda Prologue Gets Better For 2025

This crossover goes further and has more power than last year's car, but the price stays the same.

The 2025 Honda Prologue can now go up to 308 miles on a charge in single motor FWD form.
Power and torque levels on both FWD and AWD models have increased.
Pricing remains unchanged for 2025.

The Honda Prologue has been a surprising hit for Honda. It might not be the most exciting, efficient or interesting EV on the market, but it’s been resonating strongly with buyers. This right-sized, right-priced crossover did so well in 2024 that it outsold its Chevrolet Blazer EV cousin by around 11,000 cars. For 2025, the Prologue is back with more range for the same price. Honda’s not messing with the formula that made the car such a success.

The crossover’s updates are largely mild mechanical upgrades. The dual-motor all-wheel-drive model now offers a nice round 300 horsepower, with 355 lb.-ft. of torque, up 12 hp and 43 ft lbs of torque from last year. The front-wheel-drive single motor now has 220 hp and 243 lb-ft of torque, up 8 hp and 12 ft lbs of torque compared to the 2024 model. These numbers are identical to the Blazer EV, which was updated for the 2025 model year.

Like it’s Blazer cousin, range is also up for 2025. In FWD EX trim, the Prologue is rated for 308 miles, up from 296 miles. The AWD models also get sizable bumps in range, too. The AWD EX and Touring trims are now up to 294 miles, and the Elite trim is now at 283 miles. These are bumps of 13 and 10 miles, respectively. Peak charging speed is still the same, at 150 kW. No word of a native NACS port yet, but the Prologue will be able to use Tesla Superchargers via an adapter by the time this car is on dealer lots, Honda says. Its Chevy brother can already use the Tesla network.

Thankfully, Honda has kept the price identical to last year on all trims. As before, the Prologue’s base price is still $47,400. The destination fee is still the same $1,450. The Prologue still qualifies for the full $7,500 EV tax credit (so long as it keeps existing), which could bring the price to just a hair under $40,000. Technically, this isn’t the cheapest EV or crossover in the market, but the Prologue’s size and range give it a serious leg up. The base version of the Ford Mustang Mach-E, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Volkswagen ID.4 can’t crest 300 miles. The Chevrolet Equinox EV may be one of the few cars that best the Prologue, but its lack of Apple CarPlay could be a dealbreaker for some buyers. Also, it’s a pretty similar car to the Prologue underneath.

The EV market may be in a bit of a state of limbo right now, but the Honda Prologue could be a ray of consistency for drivers looking to electrify. If Honda keeps up these prices and competitive lease deals, perhaps the company will someday dethrone Hyundai, Kia, and maybe, eventually, Tesla. Especially if the protests against Tesla and Elon Musk continue to grow. But the company has a long way to go before that, and much of it will ride on its forthcoming home-grown 0 Series EVs.
