Honda’s entry into the electric car market hasn’t exactly been wholehearted. The delightful Honda e came and went, loved by owners (and me), but ignored by many buyers who were put off by the high price and low range. The bigger and bizarrely named e:Ny1 has also very quickly been and gone, while the exciting 0 Series electric cars were cancelled before they even got off the starting blocks.
Undeterred, Honda is having another go with a car that is cheap and very cheerful, but has challenges all of its own. The new Honda Super-N is a very Honda way of doing things. Instead of building another sensible little EV that looks like it has been designed by a committee, Honda has gone back to one of the things it has always done best: tiny cars with big personality.
