The new Honda e:Ny1 is the brand’s second fully electric vehicle (EV) for Europe, combining a new design approach with exceptional interior quality and advanced technology to create a compelling modern family car. The e:Ny1 was developed around the concept of providing new values, new sensations and new experiences for both existing and new EV owners.br br Following Honda’s human-centred development philosophy, the primary goal for the e:Ny1’s development team was to deliver Honda’s renowned fun-to-drive dynamics, a smooth and refined ride, and the brand’s celebrated easy-to-use versatility. As such, the engineers challenged themselves to make the most of the advantages offered by a fully electric powertrain. br br The e:Ny1 uses Honda’s newly-developed e:N Architecture F high-performance front-motor-driven platform, which will be used in B-segment electric vehicles globally. The brand’s latest battery management technology delivers a WLTP range of 412km (256 miles), and fast charging to deliver a 10-80 charge time of approximately 45 minutes. The compact architecture has also allowed for more freedom in packaging with all components housed over the front axle.br br To set it apart as a battery electric vehicle, the e:Ny1 has a sophisticated character defined by a smooth, flowing design concept. The sleek, expressive headlights are neatly integrated into the bold face, which incorporates a clever rotating grille panel that provides access to the car’s charging port behind. Integrated taillights are connected by a full width LED light bar across the tailgate, while the range of standout paint options includes an eye-catching new Aqua Topaz colour.
