It can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 7.7 seconds, reaching a top speed of 160 km/h.

Equipped with a 68.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, this electric SUV can travel up to 500 km on a single full charge (NEDC data).

This EV supports AC charging at 10 kW (full charging time of six hours) and DC charging up to 78 kW, allowing the battery to be charged from 10% to 80% in just 45 minutes.

In terms of dimensions, the Honda e:N1 measures 4,380 mm in length, 1,790 mm in width, 1,592 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,610 mm and a ground clearance of 142 mm.

Standard features include 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, sequential LED turn signals, clear rear light housings with a smoky effect, a rear spoiler, and a shark fin antenna.

Inside the cabin, the e:N1 is equipped with leather-wrapped seats, a 10.25-inch digital cluster screen, a 15.1-inch vertical central screen, and wireless support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

The center console features PRND buttons, cup holders, a driving mode selection button, and an electronic parking brake.

The Honda Sensing safety suite includes features such as Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM), Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), Lead Car Departure Notification (LCDN), and Automatic High Beam (AHB).

Additionally, there is also a Blind Spot Information (BSI) system and a Cross-Traffic Monitoring (CTM) system.

There are three color options available: Aqua Topaz Metallic with a gray interior theme, and Urban Gray Pearl and Platinum White Pearl with a black interior theme.

For the local market, the Honda e:N1 is priced at RM149,900 on-the-road, excluding insurance.

Honda Malaysia unveils e:N1 Model at 2024 KLIMS, set for launch in 2025?

At KLIMS 2024, Honda Malaysia not only showcased the concept coupe model, Honda Prelude, but also unveiled an electric SUV – the Honda e:N1.

Despite sharing a similar appearance to the Honda HR-V, the e:N1 utilizes the e:N Architecture F platform, which offers a more rigid body structure, a lower center of gravity, and a more aerodynamic underbody.

It is powered by a front-wheel-drive electric motor that delivers 201 hp and 310 Nm of torque, paired with a 68.8 kWh battery pack.

With a full charge, the e:N1 can travel up to 412 km.

What sets the e:N1 apart from the standard HR-V is the presence of a charging port that replaces the front grille structure, along with the words “Honda” displayed in a more modern font at the rear.

The layout of the e:N1’s cabin also appears quite different from the HR-V, featuring a 15-inch central screen, a 10.25-inch digital cluster screen, and support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

At this time, Honda Malaysia has not officially revealed the detailed specifications for the e:N1 in the local market.

However, it is expected to be the first electric vehicle officially brought into the country by Honda Malaysia, with its launch scheduled for next year (2025).

For your information, Honda has already started production of the Honda e:N1 electric SUV at the Rojana Industrial Park in Prachinburi Province, Thailand by the end of 2023.

The real question is, what will be the selling price set by Honda Malaysia for the e:N1 model? Currently, the Honda HR-V e:HEV variant available in the Malaysian market is priced at RM140,800.
