Power Through Winter with the 2024 Honda Prologue's All-Weather Excellence

As temperatures drop and snow will soon blanket our roads, Honda is here with its first all-electric SUV engineered with Canadian winters in mind. The 2024 Prologue brings together advanced electric technology and cold-weather capability in a package starting at $59,990.

Smart Design for Cold Climate Adventures

The Prologue's neo-rugged design serves both form and function in winter conditions. With a class-leading wheelbase of 3,094mm and generous ground clearance, this electric SUV confidently handles snow-covered roads. Honda designers crafted an aerodynamic profile that enhances the range and helps prevent snow buildup on critical surfaces. The available 21-inch wheels provide extra ground clearance, while the wide stance creates stability in challenging conditions.

Tech That Tackles Winter Challenges

Winter driving demands smart navigation and planning. The Prologue's standard Google built-in system goes beyond basic routing by identifying charging stations along your journey and initiating battery preconditioning when approaching a DC fast-charging location. This intelligent feature optimizes charging speeds even in cold weather, where the 85kWh battery can gain over 100 km of range in approximately 10 minutes. The system's integration with charging networks means you can verify station availability before venturing out in cold weather.

Interior Built for Northern Living

The Prologue's cabin transforms to meet changing winter needs. The thoughtfully designed storage includes a two-tiered center console perfect for winter gear and essential equipment. With 714 litres of cargo space behind the rear seats - expandable to 1,634 litres with seats folded - there's room for everything from ski equipment to emergency winter supplies. The interior features durable materials chosen to withstand the rigours of winter use, including available leather seating surfaces that resist moisture from snow-covered clothing.

Power and Performance in the Cold

Winter driving requires instant response and consistent power delivery. The Prologue's dual-motor system, producing 288 hp and 333 lb-ft of torque, provides immediate acceleration and superior traction in slippery conditions. The all-wheel drive system continuously optimizes power distribution, while the carefully tuned suspension maintains stability on winter-worn roads. The Prologue achieves a 452 km range rating in EX and EX-L trims, providing confidence for winter journeys.

Honda engineers developed specific systems to manage battery performance in cold conditions. The thermal management system maintains optimal battery temperature, while regenerative braking is calibrated to perform consistently in winter conditions. When charging is needed, the Prologue's DC fast-charging capability delivers quick power restoration, compatible with an expanding network of charging stations across Canada.

Every Prologue comes equipped with features essential for winter comfort. The standard heated front seats and available heated steering wheel provide immediate warmth, while the dual-zone climate control system maintains your preferred temperature. The expansive interior space, including best-in-class front-to-rear-seat distance, ensures comfort even when bundled in winter clothing.

Honda's comprehensive approach benefits winter visibility and safety. The standard Honda Sensing suite includes new features like Blind Zone Steering Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Braking, providing extra confidence when winter weather compromises visibility. The Prologue's LED lighting system cuts through winter gloom, while the available hands-free power tailgate makes loading cargo easier when your hands are full of winter gear.
