Working to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions. For Good.

At Honda, we focus on bringing joy and freedom of mobility through the development of environmentally-conscious energy. That’s why we’ve introduced hybrids in our Civic, Accord, and CR-V lineups. And why we’re continuing to push for a fully-electric, zero tailpipe emission future.

The Power of Hybrids

In hybrid vehicles, gas and electricity work together to deliver a more fuel-efficient ride. While driving, the electric motor uses power from the battery to drive the wheels, which in turn reduces the internal combustion engine’s “workload”. And the battery constantly recharges through energy created from braking, called “regenerative braking”. Ultimately, this generates 27-35% less greenhouse gas emission and can save you money at the pump*.

Exceptional Electric

All-electric cars not only completely eliminate the need for gas but they’re also quiet, reliable, and fun to drive, as they offer a near-instant acceleration. Plus, charging can be conveniently done at home or through a growing network of charging stations.

Three Levels of Charging

Integrating the all-electric Prologue into your lifestyle is simple thanks to three different charging levels that are sure to energize all your adventures. Included with your Prologue is a portable charging cable with 120V and 240V adapters, allowing you to charge via a standard three-pronged home outlet (120V AC), or a 4-pronged NEMA 14-50 outlet (240V AC) at limited speeds.

LEVEL 1



Standard 120V AC Outlet


Level 1 charging uses a standard 120-volt home electrical outlet, compatible with your portable charging cable. Simply plug your charger directly into a wall outlet and draw power from your home.

LEVEL 2


Faster: 240V AC Outlet or Hardwired Connection


Level 2 charging uses a 240-volt electrical outlet or 240-volt hardwired connection and can be used residentially or at public charging stations*. You can purchase a Level 2 charger and have it installed by a licensed electrician*. This is the best setup for at-home charging.

LEVEL 3



Fastest: 480V DC Fast Charging* Capability


Your fastest charging option, only available at public charging stations. Connect to a DC Fast Charging* (DCFC) station with 190kW of charging power and get back on the road faster.

Setting Up Your At-Home Charging Station

Driving a Prologue is even more convenient when you charge at home with a Level 2 charger. Home installation allows drivers to charge their Prologue at their convenience and start every morning with a charge. We highly recommend speaking to a certified installer who will help you understand all the requirements and the best home connector type for your needs.

Our Commitment Towards a Sustainable Future

We aim to have as little impact on the environment as possible by recycling materials from our batteries. We harvest metals and components from our electrified-vehicle batteries whenever possible and repurpose them in other products. This allows us to reuse valuable materials and reduce waste.
