ANALYSISHow safe is the 2025 Honda Prologue EV?
The 2025 model year marks a meaningful step forward for the Prologue EV in federal safety terms. The NHTSA Safety Index climbed six points to 93/100, moving the vehicle from the Strong band it held in 2024 at 87/100 into the Exceptional band. That gain is supported by a near-perfect crash-protection subscore of 66 out of 70 and a full 10 out of 10 for crash-avoidance technology, reflecting the standard fitment of forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and electronic stability control. The defect record subscore of 17.25 out of 20 is the one area holding the Index below a perfect score, driven by the 133 unverified owner complaints on file rather than any recall activity. Steering allegations alone account for 38 of those reports, and the Electrical System draws another 28, both worth monitoring as the complaint record continues to develop for a vehicle still in its early used-market life. The absence of any recall campaign is a distinguishing feature of this model year and contributes directly to the Index improvement over 2024.
NCAP // CRASH TESTHow did the 2025 Honda Prologue EV perform in crash tests?
