Is Honda’s new prologue the best or the worst?
The Honda Prelude will return for 2025, bringing hybrid and two-door styling back to the table. It guarantees a balance of modern design, advanced technology and efficient mixing performance. But it can also disappoint, as history shows this combination doesn't always hit the mark. The new Honda Prelude is less than a year away from production. It's coming to markets including the US and Europe soon and features neat new styling. Best of all, it should end up being the most fuel-efficient generation of the segment. To make everything even sweeter, it's accessible with just two doors, a rarity these days. Before we worry about gas hybrid powertrains, let's consider another example. There's a gas-hybrid performance car that seems to be a hit with at least some enthusiasts. That is the BMW i8. It features an out-of-the-box design that uses carbon fiber tubes to keep weight low. The battery isn't huge at only 7.1 kilowatt-hours, and it only powers the…

Honda’s new 2026 Passport urgently needs to be taken seriously
The new 2026 Passport is wider, with a longer wheelbase and greater ground clearance. TrailSport models come with real fenders, recovery points and all-terrain tires. All versions of the midsize SUV come with a naturally aspirated 3.5-liter V6 engine and a 10-speed automatic transmission. This is the new 2026 Honda Passport: a rougher, tougher, boxier take on the popular midsize SUV. Honda has long claimed that this is its most powerful SUV ever, but, let's be honest, that's not the boldest claim since the Japanese automaker isn't exactly known for its mud-choking off-roaders. But Honda wants you to take the new Passport seriously, especially its TrailSport version. To live up to these claims, there's an off-road-tuned suspension, all-terrain tires, recovery points and a bumper plate to protect the belly.

The new electric lawn mowers start at $899 and go up to $1,899 for top-of-the-line commercial models. The entry-level HRN-BV can only run for 30 minutes, but an optional battery can extend the run time to 45 minutes. Countless Americans have a Honda in their garage that they fire up only on weekends. Unfortunately for them, this is a lawn mower, not an S2000. var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:()}; adpushup.que.push(function() { if (adpushup.config.platform !== "DESKTOP"){ adpushup.triggerAd("4d84e4c9 -9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a"); } else{ adpushup.triggerAd(" 6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657"); } }); Honda lawn mowers have been the gold standard for decades, and they first came to the United States in 1978. However, everything changed last year when the company stopped producing the gasoline-powered HRX, HRN and HRC. The move prompted significant backlash, but Honda said the change was necessary due to "a variety of factors,…
