Honda Super-One EV Revealed, Small Size, Big Fun

Honda just pulled the covers off something special at the Japan Mobility Show. It's called the Super-One Prototype. A compact electric hatchback. Small enough for city streets. Punchy enough to put a grin on your face.

This isn't your average EV. It started as the Super EV Concept. Remember that wild climb at Goodwood Festival? Now it's real. And ready for roads.

What Makes It Tick

The Super-One sits on Honda's lightweight N-Series platform. Think kei car roots under 3.4 meters long. But with flared fenders. Wide stance. Black alloys hugging the corners. It looks tough. Stable.

Inside? Sport seats that hug you. Physical buttons for AC. No touch-screen overload. A clean dash. Blue accents pop.

The Boost Mode Thrill

Hit Boost Mode. Power surges. You feel shoved back. But here's the fun part. It fakes a 7-speed gearbox. Paddle shifts click. Engine sounds growl through speakers. It's EV quiet meets old-school roar. Honda tested it everywhere. Japan twisties. UK lanes. Asian heat. It handles.

When and Where

Japan gets it first. 2026 launch. Called Super-One. Then Asia and Oceania. The UK calls it Super-N. North America? No word. Sorry, folks.

Honda's Bigger Picture

They didn't stop there. 2026 Prelude hybrid coupe. Two-motor setup. 200 hp. Rev-matching shifts. Plus the 0 α SUV prototype for the 0 Series. Honda's all-in on fun EVs. Hybrids too.

The Super-One measures under 3.4 meters long and draws from kei, car design. It rides on Honda’s lightweight N-Series platform. The standout feature is Boost Mode with simulated gear shifts and engine sounds. It launches in Japan in 2026, then spreads to the UK and other Asian markets. Honda tested it in Japan, the UK, and across Asia.

This little guy proves EVs don't have to be boring. City zip. Weekend twisties. Honda nailed it. Can't wait to hear those fake revs. For more updates, visit DrivePK.com
