Honda Prelude Concept Previewed at KLIMS 2024
An icon revived and making its Malaysian debut, Honda at the Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show 2024 (KLIMS 2024) with a concept preview of the Honda Prelude.
As reported, the new Prelude is set to be the brand’s new two-door coupe hybrid, which is the first Prelude model in history to have a semi-electrified powertrain.
Albeit the specs are still a secret, it is likely to underpin a 2.0-Litre four-cylinder Atkinson-Cycle e:HEV hybrid with an e-CVT automatic gearbox setup akin to the Civic and Accord.
Said setup consists of two electric motors as the primary source of power, compensated by a petrol engine, with all power transmitted to the front wheels (FWD).

Gandering at the concept, it can be seen with a sharp-dipping front-end, slit-like head lamps and grille, an encompassing glasshouse, and a full-width tail lamp design.
Interior-wise, it is expected to adopt a premium, minimalist cabin inspired by the driver-focused layout of the current FL5 Civic Type R, with cutting-edge technology and design.
