The New 2026 Honda Prelude - Coming Soon to Atlanta

2026 Honda Prelude: Coming Soon to Honda Carland near Atlanta

After a 25-year hiatus, the Honda Prelude is set to return for 2026, revived as a sleek, hybrid-electric sports coupe that reimagines a fan favorite for today's enthusiasts. Bridging the gap between efficiency and driving enjoyment, this exciting new generation blends Type R-derived engineering with an unmistakably coupe silhouette. The result is a car that evokes the spirit of the original while still offering modern comforts, conveniences, and technology.

Performance

The 2026 Honda Prelude is powered by a responsive hybrid-electric setup that pairs a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with two electric motors. This configuration delivers a balanced 200 horsepower and 232 pound-feet of torque, offering smooth power delivery with immediate torque response for a more engaging daily driving experience.

Drawing inspiration from the Honda Civic Type R, the Prelude's chassis includes dual-axis front suspension for improved cornering precision and reduced torque steer. A wider stance, performance-tuned adaptive dampers, and Brembo® brakes further sharpen handling, helping the Prelude feel confident and composed whether you're navigating downtown Atlanta or heading north toward the hills.

For an added dose of driver engagement, the Prelude introduces Honda's S+ Shift system. This clever feature simulates gear changes with rev-matching feedback-restoring the rhythm and feel of a traditional gearbox while maintaining the efficiency of its hybrid drivetrain.

Interior

Inside, the Prelude remains true to its performance roots while offering everyday usability. The driver-centric 2+2 layout is wrapped in high-quality materials, with a low seating position, slim dash, and ergonomically placed controls that enhance connection behind the wheel. The front seats are asymmetrically bolstered-more aggressively shaped for the driver, more relaxed for the front passenger-striking an appealing balance between support and comfort.

Rear seats provide over 32 inches of legroom, making them suitable for quick trips or added cargo flexibility. Thanks to the Prelude's liftback design, the rear space is significantly more versatile than in most coupes. Whether you're packing up for the weekend or running some after-work errands in Alpharetta, the Honda Prelude proves that performance and practicality don't have to be mutually exclusive. Standard features include leather upholstery, heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a Bose® premium audio system.

Technology

The Honda Prelude has easy-to-use tech features, including a 10.2-inch fully digital gauge cluster that lets you monitor various driving details and vehicle information while staying focused on the road. A 9-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto seamlessly integrates various smartphone features without cord clutter. However, thanks to Google built-in, you can access music, navigation, various cabin controls, and natively supported apps through intuitive voice commands without needing to connect a device. Plus, every 2026 Honda Prelude includes a comprehensive suite of advanced Honda Sensing® driver aids, such as:

  • Forward Collision Warning and Collision Mitigation Braking Systemâ„¢
  • Lane Departure Warning and Lane Keeping Assist System
  • Road Departure Mitigation System
