Honda Shares Photos, Certain Specs for 2024 Prologue Electric Crossover

• Honda showed the first official photos of its Prologue all-electric crossover, which goes on sale in North America in 2024.

• The ute is sort of the size of a Passport, with a longer wheelbase that promises loads of interior room.

• It's all part of Honda's stated goal of carbon neutrality by 2050.

Honda released several photos of its first mainstream, full-production electric vehicle today, the Prologue crossover utility vehicle, set to go on sale in North America in 2024.

It’s about time. Just as cautious and conservative Honda came late to the SUV and minivan party decades ago, so too is Honda arriving late to the electric-car revolution, well behind many competitors like Hyundai, Kia, Nissan, Volkswagen, Chevrolet and, of course, Tesla. Heck, even Mazda sells the MX-30 EV with 100 miles of range. But while it depended on partnerships with Isuzu to start its SUV and minivan lines a generation ago, this time Honda is launching its own Prologue crossover, designed at its styling studio in Los Angeles.

While specs like battery size, range, and power were not released, Honda did lay out the Prologue’s exterior dimensions:

• 121.8-inch wheelbase

• 192.0-inch overall length

• 78.3-inch width

• 64.7-inch height

That wheelbase is one foot longer than the Passport but just three inches longer overall. The Toyota Highlander is three inches longer overall and almost a foot shorter in wheelbase. The Chevy Equinox is more than a foot shorter, and the all-conquering Tesla Model Y crossover is also shorter than the Prologue.
