The Prelude will be the second moniker to be resurrected by Honda in recent times, with the first one being the popular Integra.
The car on display looks quite production-ready with a working headlamp setup; the front gets styling cues from the latest Civic. It has Brembo brakes and 20-inch wheels that look more factory than a concept, and the wing mirrors are proper units too. Honda has not revealed the car’s interior yet, and hence, all the windows are tinted.
Honda has said that it will reveal more details about the Prelude in due course, including its powertrain and production plans.
