The Honda e has a few too many caveats for us to fall in love with it.

Honda delivered the first mass-produced hybrid vehicle in 1999 with the launch of the rather odd-looking two-seater Insight, and has rolled hybrid tech out across its range in the years since. But, it took until 2020 for the first pure electric Honda car to emerge in the shape of the e hatchback.
The small, five-door EV is aimed squarely at taking sales from the MINI Electric, the PSA Group’s Peugeot e-208 and Vauxhall Corsa-e, plus the electric Fiat 500. Power for the Honda e comes from a 35.5kWh lithium-ion battery, with a rear-mounted electric motor that drives the rear wheels. This set-up provides either 134bhp or 152bhp, with a maximum range of up to 137 miles.
There are just two equipment levels - Standard and Advance, with the entry trim matched to the lower powered car and the top-spec kit only offered in tandem with the more potent power option.
Honda hasn’t scrimped with on-board tech in the e - there is an 8.8-inch display in front of the driver, along with two 12.3-inch screens taking care of the infotainment system. The system operates much like a smartphone, with large tile icons for various features (from power flow to activating the car’s onboard wi-fi hotspot), pinch-and-zoom functionality and the ability to switch information from one screen to another. There's plenty of tech then, but is it enough to win us over? Nicola Hume finds out in this full review.

I bought an almost two year old ex-demo earlier this year, which sorted the price issue out (well, partly anyway ;)). Even after more than two years after release, it's still THE coolest EV to date. It seems to me that this car was made by actual car loving engineers (because it's definitely over-engineered for a city car), instead of accountants and marketeers. It's like buying a small roadster or sportscar. You don't buy one because it offers the best solutions to your everyday needs. You buy one because you want it and love driving it.

I think it's a great to have a small car that's clearly a thing of luxury. Loads of people want to have an exclusive car, something really special and indulgent but that usually means something big that takes up space, is hard to manoeuvre and park and is really unsafe for other road users. The Honda is great for people who want something special, can afford it but really only need it for short city hops. More of these in big cities please, fewer huge luxury SUVs - I think even the people driving them think they're a pain!

That's a very harsh title/intro imo..! The Honda E is pricey but then, all EVs are. The boot is small, but you really don't need a big boot since this is supposed to be a city car, and it is also more spacious than it looks. It does have a short range, but it also has one of the most powerful and efficient regen I've ever experienced in an EV. Small battery means it also gets charged quicker. And the camera mirrors are absolutely brilliant, zero complaints about that. It's a car that is way ahead of its competition when it comes to technology. That's just my opinion. If you are considering a Honda e and you are looking for a city car, just go for it!

Firstly this is the best review and reviewer I found on yt who has perfect knowledge of how to use blenders as shown in the video 😀 - the way she blends wit along with informative facts is truly amazing. Now about Honda-e - What's the purpose of owning an ev without all those features and gadgets, so according to me Honda-e is an perfect ev for people who can afford it, atleast it doesn't looks like wastage of money unlike others in the segment which offers nothing unique and are just small cute boxes that commutes people and goods from place A to B, then make ppl busy with calculating speed and distances.. 😀.. so cost is not a problem and appears justified but there is a bigger problem- I don't agree that it is just a city car, it's actually a tourist car.. a car that is worth taking to trips and long travels but then its low range can create a big problem.. 😭

We tested it, it drives well, has a very small turning cercle, the mirrors work well, the interior is original. But the boot, and more importantly the range were insufficient for us. We ended up with a second-hand BMW i3 with range extender, giving double the range and more than double the boot volume. Also very original in its own style, pity they stopped producing them.

I love the review Nicola, almost like a failed love story. As a car that's designed for a purpose it ticks all the boxes as well as looking a bit cute. But the amount of your hard earned cash that you need to had over for the privilege considering the range and size of the car there are many other options that would be much higher on the list. I can imagine see these on large driveways of very expensive houses where the high purchase price might be less of an issue though so I guess we could factor in a modicum of exclusivity.....It'll be interesting to see the residuals are like on pre-owned models. The digital mirrors look more of an expensive gimmick but it would be interesting to see how the images look in low light. Generally I like the way the interior is done. The fish tank is a great addition for something relaxing to look at while passing the time when you're at a charging point (yet again).

Our family has one and it’s fine for local use providing (a) you have a charger at home and (b) you have another vehicle for distance stuff. Remove the plastic fillers and there’s loads of room for cables and bits underneath the boot floor. The thing that pees me off is the fact that the rear seat back doesn’t split. We’re a family of three so would often like to enlarge the boot and seat the daughter in the rear. But it’s one thing or the other.

I could never justify the price tag (I have a £6k 2018 Citigo) but if I see one it will make me smile! Like another reviewer has said - and it’s an interesting point - I’d love this little luxury car to be adopted by all the SUV and 4x4 owners who clog up the narrow streets and car parks of my city of Edinburgh!

Honda messed up big time with the E. Its expensive price point and low range meant it fell into a very niche target audience - which is probably why they're very uncommon. Those who own an E probably also have an ICE powered luxury SUV for the longer journeys, whereas the E is a gimmick car to use around town. At least that's what I can gather from seeing them around in central London. It could've been a mass-market, affordable success story. But it just wasn't...

And even in wintertime we use it every day and charge (at home) only once a week. We've also tried it for weekend trips and even a 206km trip Brussels - Bruges - Brussels: no problem. I really don't get the "range" criticism. It's like blaming a Rolls Royce Phantom for not being a practical city car. In fact, I think Honda's e is the victim of its' own utter brilliance: designed as "only" a (very luxurious) city car, it's just so awesome to drive one cannot resist driving it straight to southern Italy.

The Honda E has the same problems as the current generation Renault Twingo. Rear drive, small boot, fun to drive, high price for the segment and will become extremely niche and continue on that trend. The idea for the E was good, but they aimed to high and people with the budget for the E would just go elsewhere for something bigger or better. Most people don't buy a Honda for this price, if they economised I'm sure they would have done much better.

Many people use city cars for more than city driving, if anything they use them to get out of the city, and if the traffic is not a nigthmare, maybe consider use them in the city too. This narrows the potential buyers down quickly. Then there is battery life over time. I think this car is way too specialized. At least it does look cool.

I’m watching the video, I agree on most points…why am I still about to order one? What’s bugging me is that it’s been out for a couple of years, but still not a single update to the infotainment system or new apps, even though it has OTA update support and an App Store. I’ve heard CarPlay can be flaky, and that worries me if I purchase it as a brand new car. Anyways: Charging cables can both be stored underneath the trunk, there’s a slot and track for connectors and cable.

I know it’s a town car, but 200 mile real world range and I would buy it...crazy crazy range, accept most journeys are 25 miles or less ...but for £35 k it has to be better ..imagine the volume of cars they could sell at £28K price point

interesting how 0-62 in 8 seconds in 2001 was quite fast, now the acceleration is apparently average/normal, yet driving tests haven't changed. This unbridled power in a high powered EV is going to kill people eventually; when 17 year old new drivers are let loose with a brand new high powered EV. Not something the government thought about since it is incompetent.

We liked the Honda, pity it was a shortrange city car and has no cabrio version. We ride the last ICE Smart Cabrio that does 4ltr on 100km. For real world use as a regular car, with 165km range the Honda E is unusable. 80% of the time it would do, but we do a lot of rides thru the country 400km back and forth. Also once a month around 600 km. and 2 times a year trips thru Europe. Last month a trip from Netherlands to Austria for 10 days. With the ICE Smart, after 650km filling up 5 minutes, and 350km for the last leg back home. I dont even want to do the math how long that would take with a Honda E.

It’s such an awesome car. The tech, the looks… oh my god the looks 😍 but that range legitimately sucks. During the winter with the heating on you’d probably only get 60-70miles and that’s just awful.

Id buy it tomorrow even with its high price if it got 200 mile real world range. EV database gives the E a 105 mile range, and with my occasional commute being 45 miles, its a bit close for me.

I agree ... The Honda e looks like it's the most desirable little car you could wish for. Retro in the nicest possible way (especially with that shade of blue), but modern in its specs and with a homely interior. Such a shame Honda lets it down so much with that poor range and steep pricing. I quite loved this review, sums the car up perfectly.

Good review, all relevant points. I surely cannot afford this car but neither can I afford a 1000$ or 2000$ phone. I can't understand either of those things.
