2024 HONDA PROLOGUE ELITE AWD: A BETTER CHEVY BLAZER EV

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Honda Prologue Elite AWD is presented as Honda's first EV, built in partnership with General Motors and sharing components with the Chevy Blazer EV and Cadillac Lyriq. The reviewer expresses a preference for the Prologue over its GM counterparts, highlighting its refined suspension tuning unique to Honda, a more traditional and cleaner exterior design, and the inclusion of wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a significant advantage over GM's native system. The interior is described as a nice, comfortable place with good build quality, though it features a fair amount of gloss black plastic. Positives include the intuitive manual charge port door, comfortable heated and ventilated seats, ample storage solutions, and a smooth, compliant ride thanks to the low center of gravity and Honda's suspension tuning. The reviewer notes a real-world range that meets EPA estimates, alleviating range anxiety on longer trips. Key criticisms include a comically small rear window and rear wiper, leading to compromised rearward visibility, and the lack of physical controls for lighting. Despite these drawbacks, the Prologue is deemed a solid, well-built vehicle that is easy to live with daily, making it a compelling choice over the Blazer EV.
