The upcoming 2024 Honda Prologue has been officially listed by the IRS among electric cars eligible for the full $7,500 federal tax credit.
That’s a substantial advantage, which represents roughly 15% of the vehicle’s base MSRP of $47,400. When including the $1,395 destination charge and deducting the tax credit, the effective starting price is $41,295.
2024 Honda Prologue
The Prologue is Honda’s first all-electric model in the U.S., excluding some very limited, compliance projects from the past. The car is based on the General Motors’ Ultium platform.
Since the Honda Prologue does qualify for the $7,500 federal tax credit, then other Ultium-based models might be too. This includes the Acura ZDX.
Chevrolet already confirmed that the 2024 Equinox EV will get the full $7,500 tax credit (once launched), although we are waiting for the Chevrolet Blazer EV and Chevrolet Silverado EV. As we understand, if the manufacturer adjusts its supply chain to comply with the requirements (mostly battery content), all Ultium-based EVs might get the tax credit later this year.
