This is Honda's Small Sports EV concept, which leads the Japanese company's exhibits at the Tokyo motor show in December.
Honda says the two-seat, targa-roof sports car is "fun to drive while achieving excellent environmental performance." A production version is expected, though early versions are likely to use a hybrid powertrain rather than a pure electric drive system.
Honda's other Tokyo concepts are:
- AC-X a plug-in hybrid which has an "engine drive mode" for spirited driving and an "automatic drive mode" for more relaxed driving
- Micro Commuter Concept a small city car which can house another of the Honda concept vehicles, the tiny Motor Compo two-wheel EV
- Motor Compo is an electric commuter two-wheeler with a battery that can be used to power other items
- E-Canopy a three-wheel electric scooter
- RC-E an electric sportsbike
- Townwalker an electric mobility scooter
Honda has also announced the N Box, the first production car from the series started by the N Concept in 2009, with styling inspired by the N-series Hondas of the 1960s.
