The Honda Super-One is a tall, boxy five-door hatchback, with wide apertures, a high roof and big doors for easy entry and egress.

Make no mistake. This is a Kei-car from Japan, with a narrow interior offering four seats only. There is lots of space for four people, though a driver that is much over 180cm tall may desire more legroom.

Vision is great, due to deep windows, thin pillars and lofty seating.

Those bolstered sports seats are brilliantly comfortable and supportive, the square-edged layered dashboard features a 9.0-inch touchscreen and there is an electronic display ahead of the driver.

Fit and finish are good, all controls are where you need them to be and are a cinch to operate, including the very effective climate control set-up and multimedia system. Storage is more than sufficient.

Further back, the Super-One is not as ambient or plush as the front row, with a plain bench seat split in a 50/50 configuration and a slightly reclining backrest. But vision out is good and there is plenty of room for two people to stretch out.

The Honda Super-One is powered by a 47kW/168Nm electric motor.

Drive is sent to the front wheels via a single-speed transmission.

The Honda Super-One is a four-seater five-door hatchback with highly bolstered bucket seats up front providing excellent comfort and support. They are manually adjustable.

The rear seats comprise of a bench with a 50/50 split, with no centre position and no armrest. It does recline a bit, and folds down flat into the floor as per Honda’s ‘Magic Seat’ function made famous in the Jazz. The base also lifts up for bulky items to be stored underneath.

The rear seats have child-seat restraint anchorages as well as ISOFIX.

The Honda Super-One scoots from zero to 100km/h (0-100km/h) in 14.5 seconds, though that can be cut down to just 10 seconds if the e-Booster power boost function button is pressed.

Top speed is limited to 135km/h.

The Honda Super-One offers a WLTP range of 202km. The combined average energy consumption is just 12.1kWh/100km.
