Honda pulls the plug on the e

Too expensive considering the range and charging ability, but a funky looking thing nonetheless. But yet another "small" EV dies. No doubt to be replaced by a hulking great e-SUV.

Yeah I like it. Surprisingly big inside. The fish tank monitors are a bit odd, and the digital camera mirrors are also a bit pointless, but it was a very well realised design - almost identical to the concept.

They just never got the battery sizing or pricing right. Can only assume they lost a ton of money on it.

Shame it’s gone. A genuinely original design and a rare genuinely-small BEV. I suppose they’ll just make Qashqai clones like everyone else…
12x 340W JA Solar panels (4.08kWp)
3x 380W JA Solar panels (1.14kWp)
6x 2.4kWh Pylontech batteries (14.4kWh)
LuxPower inverter/charger

(Artist formally known as ******, well it should be obvious enough to those for whom such things are important.)
