The 2026 Honda Prelude Is Difficult to Justify on Paper, but We're Glad It Exists

The 2026 Prelude uses a 200-hp hybrid powertrain with Civic Type R chassis upgrades, offering 44 mpg combined but limited performance and no manual transmission option.

Summary by Car and Driver
We're glad the Prelude is back, even if it's difficult to make the value case for a $43K, front-wheel-drive, 200-hp hybrid sports coupe.
