Video Summary
Here's a summary of the YouTube video review of the Honda Prologue Electric Car:The Honda Prologue shares its platform with the Chevrolet Blazer EV and is built in the same factory in Mexico. It has dual motors, producing 288 horsepower and 333 pound-feet of torque.
It offers 294 miles of range with the AC or heat on low. But it reaches 75 mph slower than a Toyota Corolla and only provides lane keep assist, not lane centering.
The taller tires and thicker sidewalls on the Honda offer enhanced practicality and rim protection from potholes and curbs. However, with these thicker wheels comes the need for higher tire pressures for better performance.
The Google Assistant integration isn't optimal, as the driver can't view the battery percentage while driving. And a paid subscription is required to take full advantage of the Tesla charging stations, so in the charging menu you must select that it is being used for a Chevy Blazer and not a Honda in order to make sure the connection and charging processes are as smooth as possible.
Compared to the Blazer, the Prologue has a toned-down exterior, and it's less sporty, despite the two vehicles sharing many components. The vehicle serves mainly to get Honda into the EV market prior to a full rollout of the Honda Zero series. The federal tax credit is gone, although some lease cash may be available as a capitalized cost reduction from Honda Financial Services. Overall, the Honda Prologue is simply approachable but is as bland as any food item from Starbucks.
One of the biggest complaints is the use of the "Omni" stalk, which is something that you would see straight out of a 70’s era Chevy and is considered outdated at this point.
