    Since the start of this year, Honda, the automobile manufacturer, has been quietly making plans to enter the electric vehicle market with their first offering. They aim to fulfill their commitment to achieving 100% carbon neutrality while competing with industry giants like Tesla. In April, Honda partnered with General Motors to develop this new electric car, but details were scarce until now.

    Recently, Honda revealed the name of their debut EV: Prologue. The name signifies the beginning of Honda’s venture into the EV segment and pays homage to “Prelude,” Honda’s initial sports coupe from the 1980s.

    “Our objective with the Prologue is to deliver a competitive product that meets our customers’ diverse needs,” stated Dave Gardner, Honda of America’s sales chief, during a press briefing.

    The Prologue is one of two EVs jointly developed by Honda and GM, with the second model designated for Acura. While specific details about the Prologue remain scarce, it is rumored to feature GM’s innovative Ultium battery pack as its main power source. The vehicle is scheduled to be launched in 2024 and marks the initial phase of Honda’s ambitious goal to achieve complete carbon neutrality by 2040.

    Gardner acknowledged that Honda may be lagging behind in the race for highly efficient electric vehicles but emphasized that the company possesses considerable experience in the electrified vehicle sector. “Although we may not have been seen as frontrunners recently, we are not novices in the electrification arena,” Gardner affirmed.
