Honda reveals Prelude Concept as a sporty hybrid-electric car to preview upcoming production models.
, and turns out, it's not fully electric. Instead, it's powered by a hybrid-electric powertrain, so expect an engine under that long hood and some unknown array of electric motors, as well. Our original story has been updated to reflect this:later clarified that the Prelude you're looking at here is powered by a hybrid-electric powertrain.
It's still very much a looker, though. The pointy nose, flowing curves and wide fenders all look clearly sporty. And what's interesting is that it looks surprisingly production ready, even down to the flush door handles. We wish we had more details about the Prelude Concept's underpinnings, although we know that it will feature a hybrid-electric powertrain now. Based on the body proportions, we're also very willing to bet that front-wheel drive will be the layout for the car. Not only would that be true to the model name, but it also fits Honda's performance front-wheel-drive wheelhouse.
"The word 'prelude' means an 'introductory or preceding peformance," said Honda CEO Toshihiro Mibe during the car's press conference."This model will become the prelude for our future models, which will inherit the 'joy of driving' into the full-fledged electrified future and embody Honda's unalterable sports mindset."
Whether that means it's a preview of future models or the first of those future models through the door is open for interpretation. Honda does have a long history of presenting"concept" and"prototype" cars that then arrive ata couple years later, however. And with how realistic this looks, we wouldn't be surprised to see the same thing happen, here.
