Driving modes

This sporty coupé offers three driving modes to cater for any driving style and conditions.

  • Comfort mode – relaxed, softer suspension and subdued engine sounds.
  • GT mode – responsive yet smooth.
  • Sport mode – enhanced throttle response, chassis stiffness and steering sensitivity. 
S+ Shift technology

S+ Shift selects the optimal gear and keeps the engine in its most effective range for smooth, responsive performance.

Full hybrid powertrain

Featuring Honda’s next- generation e:HEV hybrid system, the Prelude seamlessly switches between electric, hybrid and engine modes to deliver the ultimate driving experience. Plus, there’s no need to charge – the regenerative braking system tops up the EV battery on the go.

Adaptive damper system

The adaptive damper system ensures consistent tyre contact when driving over uneven road surfaces and lessens road vibrations, ensuring a smoother, high-quality drive.

The evolution of the Prelude

First launched in 1978, the sixth generation of the Prelude has returned after a 24-year break in production. Originally serving as a benchmark for innovative technology, the new Prelude is just as forward-thinking as its predecessors, combining thrilling performance with smart hybrid e:HEV technology.
