Honda Super-N EV to arrive in July for under £20,000

Honda has announced that the Super-N, a small electric vehicle (EV), will go on sale in the UK in July with prices starting at under £20,000.

The Super-N has a range of 128 miles or 199 miles in city driving.

It is based on the Honda N Series, a family of ultra-compact cars sold mainly in Japan, which comply with Japanese ‘Kei’ regulations.

Kei cars are required to be shorter than 3.4 metres, making them at least 300mm shorter than a Dacia Spring.

The Super-N has 95PS when using BOOST Mode, or 64PS in normal driving.

Honda has developed a simulated gearbox for the Super-N, with seven speeds and synthetic engine sounds.

Design inspiration was taken from the Honda City Turbo II from the 1980s, both with the exterior and the blue highlights on the interior.

Honda will offer a range of customisation options, including two-tone paint and body graphics.
