A Legend Returns Soon: Reserve the 2026 Honda Prelude
The 2026 Honda Prelude is coming soon. It will arrive at Casey Honda bringing sleek styling, hybrid-enhanced performance, and a revived spirit from one of Honda’s most beloved nameplates. While the model has not yet arrived, now is the ideal time to explore preorder options, register for updates, and secure early access to information as Honda prepares to launch this exciting new coupe.
Power and Performance
The 2026 Honda Prelude boasts impeccable performance credentials. In fact, it’s the first Honda model to pair the automaker’s award-winning two-motor hybrid-electric powertrain with the high-performance chassis of the thrilling Honda Civic Type R. The result is an incredible combination of power and efficiency, via a 2.0-liter Atkinson cycle direct injection gas engine and two robust motors. This system not only achieves 200 horsepower and 230 lb-ft of torque, but also delivers sterling gas mileage.
The next-gen hybrid powertrain equipped on this new Honda car pairs with the all-new Honda S+ Shift® system. This groundbreaking innovation simulates a performance-transmission experience, complete with virtual rev-matched downshifts and enhanced engine sounds – everything required for maximum driver-car engagement. And along with Honda S+ Shift, the 2026 Honda Prelude comes standard with additional premium performance features such as 19-inch Berlina Black wheels, Brembo® brakes, and four driving modes.
Infotainment
A full slate of leading-edge infotainment technology complements the incredible performance of the 2026 Honda Prelude. The “face” of this high-tech system is a 9-inch touchscreen with Google built-in™. It’s complemented by sought-after infotainment amenities such as Wi-Fi® hotspot capability, wireless phone charging, and an 8-speaker Bose® premium sound system. Also standard is a new, Honda Prelude-exclusive 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster that boasts terrific display options such as a multi-information screen and a big tachometer.
Cabin
The cabin of the 2026 Honda Prelude isn’t just high-tech – it’s also supremely driver-focused. Visibility is outstanding, and a thick-rimmed flat-bottom steering wheel is the perfect instrument for taking turns. This performance coupe is also the first Honda model to incorporate asymmetrical bolstering for the driver and front passenger seats. This equates to a firmer and more comfortable ride, and a more secure seating position for the driver.
Safety
Like every new Honda model, the reimagined Honda Prelude benefits from the leading-edge Honda Sensing® suite. If you haven’t visited our Newport News, VA Honda dealership before and are unfamiliar with these cars’ safety features, we’ll get you up to speed with an introduction to next-gen safety features such as Forward Collision Warning, which can help you avoid or mitigate the impact of a collision, and the new Post-Collision Braking System™, which can help lessen the damage caused during multi-impact collisions.
