Jump Links$39,900 MSRP$44,200 MSRP$50,400 MSRPHonda has a reputation for building reliable and fun gasoline vehicles as well as a competent hybrid powertrain that's both powerful and efficient. However, when it comes to the electric vehicle, Honda hasn't really had a signature model to represent that brand's electric lineup. That, however, changed when the Honda Prologue was launched back in 2024. Not only is the Prologue the first electric Honda offered to the entire US market, it's also the first electric Honda SUV to ever go on sale in the US.While it's no news that the Prologue shares its roots with Chevrolet's Blazer EV, there no getting over the fact that it is a stylish-looking electric Honda with the space and range to stay competitive on the market. Here's an overview of the Honda Prologue and its cost for 2026, in case you are interested in purchasing an electric Honda.This article examines all the Honda Prologue trims available in 2026 and their fuel costs according to EPA. All information has been sourced from the manufacturer, and all prices listed exclude destination fees and any offers; pricing and specs are correct at the time of writing. Automakers reserve the right to update pricing at their own discretion and without notice. Honda Prologue: The Only Electric Honda In 2026 The 2024 Honda Prologue Elite 3/4 front viewThe only electric Honda on sale in 2026, the Prologue sits between the CR-V and alongside the Passport, providing more options for customers who are looking for a Honda SUV in 2026. While the Prologue is essentially a rebadged Blazer EV, you wouldn't really notice it from the outside due to its simple and stylish exterior design. This is because, despite what's similar underneath, the exterior of the Prologue was completely reworked by the Honda Design Studio in Los Angles to create a clean, modern-looking SUV. The interior of the Prologue is also spacious and loaded with plenty of modern features that you would expect to see from any current electric vehicle, such as a Google built-in infotainment system with wireless CarPlay and Android Auto.The handsome-looking exterior and generous interior space are just some of the main selling points of the Prologue. To be able to survive in one of the most competitive segments in 2026, the Prologue also performs relatively well, providing decent range and a comfortable ride. The 2026 Prologue is available with two different powertrain options. The single-motor front-wheel-drive model provides 220 horsepower and an impressive 308 miles of range, while the dual-motor all-wheel-drive model offers 300 horsepower and 294 miles of range. There are three trim levels available for the 2026 model - namely Honda's traditional EX, Touring and Elite trim levels - each providing a good value for their respective price points. The 2026 Prologue also receives a cheaper MSRP for all trims due to the elimination of the $7500 federal EV tax credit.*Excludes options, destination, and offers Honda Prologue EX $39,900 MSRP Honda The EX trim provides a good starting point for the Prologue. Despite being an entry-level product, it still comes with plenty of features as standard. To start with, Honda didn't compromise on the safety features at all. The EX trim gets the whole Honda Sensing suite, which includes features such as automatic emergency braking, blind-zone steering assist, adaptive cruise control, and numerous features that keep an eye out for you. The EX model is also available with a dual-motor powertrain as a $3,000 option, should you require more power and traction on your daily drive.The cosmetic part of the EX trim is what sets it apart from higher trims. Starting from the exterior, the lack of fog lights, roof rails and 19-inch alloy wheels can easily distinguish it from the rest of the pack. The same applies for the interior, with the EX trim receiving cloth seats as standard. The smaller wheels and a lighter weight benefit the annual cost of owning the EX. According to EPA, the electricity cost of owning a FWD EX model will be around $732 yearly, with a monthly cost of $61. The AWD model will be a bit pricier due to its heavier powertrain and extra motor, the yearly cost will be $767 and $64 monthly. Honda Prologue Touring $44,200 MSRP Honda The mid-spec Touring model is arguably the one that offers the best cost-performance ratio to customers. You still get the option to choose between a FWD or an AWD powertrain, but the Touring adds a handful of premium features as standard that the EX trim can only dream of. The biggest difference lies in the interior, where leather-trimmed seats, a panoramic moonroof, a Bose Premium stereo, and a power-lifted tailgate add both luxury and convenience.While the Touring still retains the 19-inch wheels as standard, the smaller wheels also meant better fuel mileage and better efficiency for the drivetrain. Which we can see from the fact that the Touring model shares the same fuel mileage as the entry EX model. The same also applies for the owning cost, as the Touring has an identical fuel cost as the EX model, with a yearly fuel cost of $732 on the FWD model and $767 on the AWD model. Honda Prologue Elite $50,400 MSRP Nicole Wakelin/CarBuzz/Valnet The top-spec Honda Prologue Elite might have the highest price tag, but it is for good reason. To start with, the dual-motor AWD doesn't come as an option anymore but rather as standard, naturally shifting the price upward. The exterior is also what sets it apart from the rest of the line. With a sharp-looking 21-inch wheel, the Elite trim gives the Prologue a level of style that is missing from entry-level trims. Add on to that features like a heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front seats, a head-up display, key card and surround vision system, and you have the most premium Prologue there is.However, more features and bigger wheels also means higher drag and less efficiency. The effect is evidenced by the Elite trim's fuel mileage and range being the worst out of all three trims. While the AWD EX and Touring can achieve 294 miles, the Elite only gets 283 miles of range. The bad news also applies to the electricity cost, as the Elite gets the highest yearly running cost at $794 and $66 monthly. Final Verdict: The Best Option Is Not the Top One HondaAs is so often the case, we don't recommend the most expensive option as the best value. The top-trim Elite, with its bigger wheels and heavy weight, sacrifices the efficiency and range that are vital for modern electric vehicles. We would recommend going for the FWD option on the mid-spec Touring model, as it provides a strong list of features and the longest range, saving you the most money in the long run. While the Prologue hasn't received a major upgrade since its debut back in 2024, we are expecting it to stay a bit longer within Honda's product lineup as the only electric model due to the cancellation of the electric vehicle program recently.
