Description

The Honda e is a battery-electric supermini produced by Honda that will be available in European and Japanese markets in 2020. It is based on the Urban EV Concept, which was unveiled in September 2017 at the 2017 International Motor Show in Germany. In 2019, the production version was unveiled at the same exhibition. Unlike the Urban EV Concept, which had a 3-door hatchback form, the production version only had a 5-door layout. In May 2019, Honda confirmed its name. The vehicle is designed in the nostalgic styling of the first-generation Civic. Honda has declared that by 2022, all of its mainstream European vehicles will only have electrified powertrains.

Conclusion

The Honda E is a vehicle that you purchase because you like the way it looks. And if you do, you’ll possess an electric vehicle that’s enjoyable to drive, well-equipped, and relatively premium on the interior. Unfortunately, with such a narrow charging range, a perplexing infotainment system, a premium price, and a small boot, it’s objectively more difficult to suggest than many alternatives.
