At this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, Honda revealed the Prelude Concept, continuing a story that began in the late 1970s. It was the first two-door coupe of the Japanese manufacturer, which will officially return to the European market after 25 years.
The new Prelude has a new design and, except for the name, almost no similarities with its predecessor. The front part is reminiscent of sports cars, thin headlights connected with an LED bar, black side mirrors, a roof line that descends towards the rear part is reminiscent of the design of the Porsche 911 and Hyundai Ioniq 6. The rear part has a black lip spoiler, a black bumper and an LED bar which extends along the entire length. The design of the interior is still unknown.
“The Honda Prelude is a legendary name, and the latest model will continue that legacy with our hybrid performance and the latest technology. Not only will it deliver excellent efficiency, but it will also offer the fun-to-drive performance that this model is known for. We are excited to bring it to Europe.” “, said Hans de Jaeger, senior vice president of Honda Motor Europe.
When it comes to the powertrain, Honda said the new Prelude will be all-electric and that a hybrid option is also being considered. They also confirmed that it will come with a new transmission .
