❗️The Honda Prelude is back for 2026, but not in the way purists expected.

It debuts as a hybrid-only coupe making 200 hp and 232 lb-ft from a 2.0L engine with dual motors.

Honda borrowed the Civic Type R chassis tech, dual-axis struts, adaptive dampers, Brembo brakes, but softened it for grand touring.

The most talked-about feature is S+ Shift, a system that fakes gear changes, rev-matching, and engine blips for drama.

Underneath, there’s no real gearbox, just direct drive to the wheels.

The design blends modern coupe proportions with a liftback profile and 19-inch wheels.

Inside, it gets a digital cluster, 9-inch touchscreen with Google Built-in, Bose audio, and premium trim.

Sales start in late 2025 in Japan, with U.S. launch soon after.

Pricing is expected around $42K, making it a stylish hybrid GT with Type R bones, but simulated thrills.
