In 1978, Honda introduced its first car with a moonroof, the Honda Prelude. This two-door coupe was used by the Japanese manufacturer to introduce its sales chain, the Honda Verno. It was produced until 2001, when production was stopped with the arrival of the fourth-generation Integra. Now, 22 years later, there is a possible comeback of this car.
According to the latest information and speculations, Honda seems to be making a comeback, as the company trademarked the name Prelude. If we look at it with optimism, we can start to wonder if the Japanese manufacturer is really preparing the return of this iconic model.
There are many questions, but few answers. Many are wondering if it will remain a coupe with an internal combustion engine or will it become an SUV with an electric drive? So far, Honda has not made any announcements.
Following the competition, Honda must start producing new or return old models as fully electric. Currently, the Japanese manufacturer has announced the arrival of its first all-electric car, the Honda Prologue, which is expected to hit the market next year.
Honda previously announced that the company’s long-term plan is to produce a Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) and Fuel Cell Vehicles (FCV) lineup by 2040. That may be too late considering that competitors have announced a transition to all-electric cars by 2030. Ten years is a long time, but maybe Honda has an ace up its sleeve.
