Honda Super-N review: the £19k baby EV that thinks it's a racing car

The Honda Super-N lives up to its racing-inspired billing, pairing a £19,000 price with a distinctly sporty personality. Built on the N-ONE e:, Honda has tailored it for the UK with wider tracks and stiffer suspension to deliver a more dynamic city car. At 3599 mm long, 1573 mm wide and 1608 mm tall, with a 2516 mm wheelbase, it remains a compact four-seater with a 162-litre boot. Design touches include 15-inch alloys, gloss black accents, a small rear spoiler and a Formula One–inspired rear fog light that underline its playful persona. Honda positions the Super-N as a practical but entertaining entry-level EV that could redefine Honda’s small-car strategy in Europe. The project is framed as a test bed for broader European rollout, with UK reception potentially shaping whether a left-hand-drive version arrives later. The car remains a tiny, city-focused package rather than a family hatch, aided by a Boost button and sound cues that hint at performance. The Boost Violet Pearl color and retro-inspired cues reinforce its cheeky character while preserving everyday usability. If Britain responds well, Honda plans to decide on wider European availability and subsequent LHD production. In essence, the Super-N seeks to couple affordability with excitement, informing Honda’s future electrified-pocket-car lineup in Europe.
