Highlights

Honda recently presented us with its ambitious electrification plan with which it wants to reach 2050 by being a carbon-neutral company at a global level, a plan that, as we know, will be even more accelerated in Europe, where the company would have up to three new electrified models in 2023. However, in the United States, things are also getting interesting, especially after Honda and General Motors sealed an agreement to jointly develop mass electric vehicles. Well, the first model resulting from that collaboration is here. It is a 100 per cent electric SUV and is called the Honda Prologue. A model that is already beginning to be shown with this first image and its first data before a premiere scheduled for the year 2024.

We know that for next year Honda had prepared a new electric SUV for Europe known now as the Honda e: NY 1 Prototype. However, both because of its origin, with a design made between teams from the United States and Japan, its DNA from the American GM, and above all its design, this seems to be a different model. Honda has confirmed that General Motors will manufacture it out from its plant in Ramos Arizpe, Mexico. That will be in 2024, but Honda has already dropped a road map with a total of three phases for its North American electrification plan.

Unlike the European model, this 2024 Honda Prologue electric SUV is presented with a somewhat more retro appearance, in fact, it is partly reminiscent of the style of the Honda:e, with stylized rectangular headlamps attached to the closed piano black "grille" area and Honda badging to form a long, dark horizontal closely integrated into a clean and sleek looking front end. However, its design is also functional since it seeks to offer improved aerodynamics, and not only that, but it will also make the most of its electric condition with a long wheelbase and short overhangs.

With all this, Honda hopes to sell some 5 lakh electric cars in North America by 2030.
