With the N-ONE e:, Honda offers a new vision of the electric city car, compact, clever, and oddly endearing.
Inspired by the retro-styled thermal N-ONE, which has been well-known in Japan since 2012, this new fully electric model isn’t here to revolutionize appearances… but it checks a lot of boxes with its unique charm.
Aesthetically, it stays within the beloved neo-retro Kei Car vein. Square silhouette, round headlights, contrasting roof, and ultimately, hints of a mini urban estate car with a design toy flair. But some well-measured stylistic touches clearly underscore its modernity. The grille has been smoothed and painted black, two charging ports are integrated at the front, and the rounded bumpers give a softer and more contemporary touch. The whole design breathes a controlled simplicity, with that famous visual minimalism that Honda attributes to the electric realm.
A Honda Designed to Optimize Space
Inside, it’s even better. The manufacturer has completely redesigned the layout to free up space. It offers astonishing passenger room for such a small car, with a simple console, well-visible physical controls, a reasonable central screen, and a gear lever replaced by buttons. The interior style prioritizes ergonomics without falling into extreme minimalism.

In terms of performance, the technical specifications remain partial, but Honda announces more than 270 km of WLTP range. The engine should produce around 65 horsepower, enough for city driving. The N-ONE e: can power household appliances such as a griddle, lighting, or a bike charger thanks to its V2L function.
In summary, we like the style of the N-ONE e: because it is both familiar and clever. It’s not a car that turns all heads, but it exudes a true personality without trying too hard. An endearing face, a well-thought-out minimalist approach, and a promise of daily use without stress. In short, a small car full of common sense… and charm.
