At their home show next month, Honda will show its commitment to electric vehicles with the Sports EV concept.
The Sports EV is “part of a broad range of advanced two- and four-wheeled production and concept vehicles” that will be unveiled in the Japanese capital Tokyo on October 25.
It will be displayed alongside the Urban EV concept, which made its debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show on 12 September, and a celebratory edition of the Super Cub motorbike.
Honda says the Sports EV concept combines artificial intelligence and all-electric power with a “striking silhouette and friendly face.” The carmaker also says the model was designed “to deliver a feeling of joy and emotional unity to the drive.”
The Sports EV’s urban counterpart gained a lot of plaudits from the crowds at the Frankfurt Motor Show and will be on display in Tokyo. Fitted with a front grille that displays the battery charge, greetings and driving advice, as well as an all-new electric platform that means the designers can optimise the space available. A production version will be available from 2019.
The manufacturer is also showing off a 60th anniversary version of the legendary Super Cub, which has now surpassed 100 million production since it was launched in 1957. A new 125C Super Cub will also be unveiled at the event.
Honda’s latest version of the CR-V, which was also unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show, will be on display, alongside the NeuV electric mobility concept.
The Tokyo Motor Show will be open to the public from October 27 to November 5.
