After cutting interest rates this month, the 2025 Honda Prologue is more affordable than ever. The lower APR could score you nearly $3,000 off, but with stackable rebates, you can more than double the savings.
After launching in just March, the 2024 Honda Prologue became the second-best-selling electric SUV in the US in the second half of the year, trailing only the Tesla Model Y.
Honda upgraded the 2025 model with more driving range and power, but kept the same low starting prices. The 2025 Honda Prologue boasts up to 308 miles of driving range, up from 296 miles in the outgoing model. It’s available in three trims: EX, Touring, and Elite, with front (FWD) and all-wheel-drive (AWD) powertrain options.
With the tax credit, you can score the base EX Single Motor model (with an EPA-estimated driving range of 308 miles) for under $40,000.

The FWD models now deliver 220 hp, up from 212 hp in the 2024 model, while the AWD version packs 300 HP, up from 388 HP.

All 2025 Honda Prologues come with Google built-in, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, a wireless phone charger, heated front seats, and HondaSensing, Honda’s driver assistance system.
With DC charging speeds of up to 150 kW, Honda said the electric SUV can gain 65 miles of range in about 10 minutes.
2025 Honda Prologue is more affordable with 0.99% APR
Honda is making the 2025 Prologue more affordable this month. On Honda’s website, the 2025 model year is listed with 0.99% APR for up to 60 months. According to auto research firm Carsdirect, that amounts to roughly $47 in monthly savings, or a total of $2,790 throughout the loan.
After hitting the market earlier this year, the Prologue was available with a 2.99% APR rate for 60 months. Meanwhile, Honda still offers several stackable rebates that could save you even more.

Honda is offering $3,500 in finance cash, plus an extra $2,500 for those in California and other ZEV states. Then, there’s an additional $1,000 for those who lease a Honda or rival brand, bringing potential savings to up to $7,500.
The 2024 Prologue is available with 0% APR for up to six years and up to $4,000 in rebates. However, inventory is limited, and the 2025 model year has more driving range and power.

2025 Honda Prologue prices, range, and drive configuration by trim (Source: Honda)
Both the 2024 and 2025 Honda Prologue are also eligible for the $7,500 EV tax credit. The current deals are offered through July 7.
To sweeten the deal, Honda is giving away a charging package, which is included in the Prologue’s price. You can choose from three options offering a Level 2 home charger, a portable charging kit (Level 1 and 2), and public charging credits.
Chrysler parent company Stellantis is sinking billions on electric Jeeps and Chargers that no one wants, but the they’ve developed market-leading EVs in Europe, and this latest, £36,995 DS Automobiles No4 is exactly the sort of electric crossover that could rejuvenate the brand’s American prospects. The only question now is: why won’t they bring it here?
The new all-electric No4 E-Tense model from Stellantis’ French brand DS Automobiles will be offered at three trim levels starting with the Pallas at £36,995 (approx. $48K US), rising to £39,160 for the Pallas+ and topping out at £41,860 (approx. $56K US, before incentives get applied) for the range-topping Etoile.
All three trims use a front-mounted electric motor rated at 213 hp, drawing from a 58.3‑kWh battery pack. That setup delivers up to 280 miles on the WLTP cycle (about 240 miles by EPA estimates). That feels like a lot of miles from a relatively small battery, aided no doubt by the DS No4’s aerodynamic. Inside the No4’s sculpted flanks is enough room for five adults and a bunch of their stuff, as well as an incredibly sexy dash and infotainment layout that (in the official press photos, at least) seems positively slathered in Alcantara (think “vegan suede”).

With 120 kW fast charging capabilities, the No4’s battery pack can replenish from 20 to 80 percent in under 30 minutes. Thanks to built‑in V2L/V2X tech, the No4 can also supply power back to external devices.
Electrek’s Take
I think it would be a hit. As for why the marketing gurus at whatever’s left of the old Chrysler corporation seem to think an electric muscle car that no one asked for or a Dodge-branded Alfa Romeo that no one will ever ask for is a better use of their marketing dollars – that’s simply beyond me.

The clock is running out on some of the best EV lease deals of the year. With the 25% tariff on imported EVs already hitting and the federal tax credit set to vanish after September 30, automakers are dangling some serious end-of-the-month offers. If you’ve been waiting to go electric, now’s the time. CarsDirect spotted three August EV price drops worth a look, but you’ll need to move fast, because these deals won’t last past the holiday weekend.
2025 Mercedes EQE SUV: $62 per month price drop
Mercedes is sweetening the pot on its EQE SUV as it works to move inventory. The 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQE 350+ SUV can now be leased for $629 a month for 36 months with $7,923 due at signing. That works out to an effective $849 a month – a $62 drop from previous deals. For a nearly $80,000 luxury EV, that’s not a bad offer.
But timing is key. The federal EV tax credit disappears next month, and Mercedes is set to pause US EV orders on September 1, which could make finding the right model tougher. Current incentives run through September 2, so if you’ve been eyeing an EQE, lock one in now before the market shifts.

2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz: $90 per month price drop
As of August 22, the 2025 Volkswagen ID. Buzz picked up a hidden $3,000 Dealer Lease Bonus – that is, dealer cash that only shows up if you lease.
That incentive knocks the Pro S trim down to $589 a month for 36 months with $5,999 due at signing. Do the math, and that’s $756 a month effective cost – a $90 drop from the earlier $846 offer. With $10,500 in total savings, this is the best deal yet on the ID. Buzz and one of the standout Labor Day EV lease offers.
Hyundai just slashed the price on its most powerful EV yet. The 2025 IONIQ 5 N can now be leased for $549 a month for 36 months with $3,999 due at signing (10,000 miles a year). That works out to an effective $660 a month – a huge $150 drop from July.
For a track-ready performance car, that’s a steal. And unlike most performance machines, the IONIQ 5 N doesn’t guzzle gas – you can just plug it in overnight at home. Current offers run through September 2.
The 30% federal solar tax credit is ending this year. If you’ve ever considered going solar, now’s the time to act.

UK delivery firm DPD is putting one of Terberg’s heavy-duty electric yard tractors to the test at its giant, Oldbury, UK logistics hub – and its findings will help DPD shape a cleaner, more sustainable fleet strategy for the future.
DPD operates a fleet of over 50 yard hostlers (or “tugs” in the UK) to perform all trailer movements across its five sorting hubs in Oldbury, Smethwick, and Hinckley. Currently, those yards are serviced by a fleet of diesel tractors – but the company is interested in decarbonizing and “keen” to understand how EVs could be deployed across the fleet in the longer term.
“Tugs are the lifeblood of our hub operation, performing all trailer movements efficiently and safely across the five sites,” says Tim Jones, Director of Marketing, Communications, and Sustainability at DPD UK.
To that end, the company has deployed a Royal Terberg YT203-EV fitted with a pair of 78 kWh batteries, but it can be spec’ed up to 236 kWh and an almost unbelievable 105 tonne GCVWR. Even with “just” 156 kWh, the Terberg is able to work nearly a full 24 hours between charging – capability that is on par with diesel. At least.

“Terberg DTS are proud to be able to assist DPD on the way to Net Zero (emissions) and it was great to be able to work with DPD’s drivers and demonstrate what the YT203-EV can do in their own yard,” explains Peter Giles, Head of UK Logistics Sales at Terberg DTS. “Their aim is to be one of the leaders in the march to a more sustainable fleet future and they have already amassed a lot of knowledge and experience working with EVs. We know just how versatile and effective the vehicle is, but every operation is slightly different and working on-site with their own drivers means DPD can get really meaningful feedback from those who know the job better than anyone.”
Several operators will be trying out the YT203-EV across different shifts and operations to get feedback. So far, however, they seem hyped. “The electric tug (performs) incredibly well,” adds Jones. “Our drivers were really impressed, especially with the ease of use and driver comfort.”
Electrek’s Take
Terberg terminal tractor; via DPD.
Whether it’s Terberg, Tico, or Orange EV, terminal tractors are an ideal application for electrification, and companies like DHL have spent more than a decade proving that out. And now that DPD is giving these HDEVs a chance, expect to see a whole lot more of them getting deployed soon.
