Matthew Guy drove the 2026 Honda Prelude last week. Reading/editing his review, I kept thinking that my own feelings about the car remain mixed.
As always, I reserve judgment until I drive a car, but I am not sure I love the idea of the Prelude being a hybrid with no available manual. The 0-60 time seems a tad high for a sporty car — the new Prelude comes across as a grand tourer more than a true affordable sport coupe.
On the other hand, if the car shares bones with the Civic Hybrid, well, Honda could do worse.
I toss it over to you. If you haven’t already expressed your opinion on the first-drive post, or if you want to chime in yet again, well you know what to do.
Sound off below.
