Does quite well, I think.

Agreed. So much hate out there from people who have no idea what they are talking about.

First Test: SLALOM

A slalom test reveals not just whether a car can handle a single extreme evasive maneuver, but how quickly, precisely, and consistently it responds to multiple changes of direction. This provides better insight into differences in agility, steering precision, body roll, and the intervention characteristics of the ESP and suspension compared to a single maneuver like the "moose test." The Prelude achieved a top speed of 72.2 km/h in this test. The tester notes that the car exhibits minimal body roll and can be positioned with extreme precision; very little steering input is required, and the car consistently provides positive feedback, allowing the driver to build a great deal of confidence. The body remains remarkably stable throughout the slalom run.

Second Test: MOOSE TEST

The moose test and the slalom are primarily designed to evaluate a car's driving stability, steering behavior, and the response of its ESP and assistance systems during rapid, critical evasive maneuvers. km77 uses these specific tests to demonstrate how controllable a car remains when suddenly avoiding an obstacle, and whether it holds its line cleanly or breaks traction or tips over.

The tester feels the Prelude performs exceptionally well here; even in Comfort mode, the car reacts quickly at 77 km/h, with direct steering and immediate execution of inputs.

In Sport mode, the car successfully completed the evasive maneuver test at 80 km/h—a feat made possible by the slightly firmer shock absorbers, which handle abrupt body-roll movements more effectively. They attempted the same speed in Comfort mode but were unsuccessful.

In conclusion, they stated that the Prelude instills a great deal of confidence in the driver, offers balanced handling, and demonstrates impressive versatility. It is a vehicle that is safe, efficient, and easy to drive, yet capable of mastering demanding maneuvers in an emergency.

I asked grok to compile results for other makes/models. (No need to read it all; just look at the tables). 80mph ‘moose test’ - better than Type R, GR86, many Porsches.
