Honda Super-ONE, with Chunky Styling and Simulated Shifts, Is Another Great EV We Won't Get

Honda plans to start production of the compact Super-One electric vehicle in 2026, aiming to deliver a fun driving experience with advanced features like Boost Mode.

  • This year at the Japan Mobility Show, Honda unveiled the Super-One Prototype and said production is scheduled to start sometime in 2026, with the UK name Super-N.
  • Teased earlier this year at Goodwood Festival of Speed and built on the electric Honda N Series platform, the Super-One aims to transform everyday driving and deliver Honda's `joy of driving`, appearing very close to production.
  • Honda engineered a `Boost Mode` that increases power while syncing a simulated 7-speed transmission and Active Sound Control, plus added aerodynamic front and rear air ducts, fender flares, and unique four-spoke wheels.
  • Honda tested the prototype across Japan, the United Kingdom, and other Asian countries, with commentators saying it likely won't reach markets outside Asia.
  • Honda’s Super-One Prototype positions the company to keep small electric hot hatch appeal alive in a shrinking small-EV segment, reflecting performance trends seen on the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N and Lexus RZ 550e F-Sport.
