Honda e electric supermini now available to reserve

By / 5 years ago / News / No Comments

The Honda e electric supermini is now available to order in selected markets in Europe ahead of first deliveries from spring 2020.

Reservations are now open for the Honda e

A dedicated online reservation website allows customers in the UK, Germany, France and Norway to reserve a priority status to order the Honda e with a refundable reservation fee. Customers will then be able to place an order from later this year at their local dealer and also receive news updates.

No further technical details have been revealed – just confirmation of Honda’s announcement at Geneva that the Honda e will deliver a range of more than 125 miles and a ‘fast charge’ functionality of 80% battery charge in 30 minutes. Instead, the reservation system just reveals five colour options that will be available.

First revealed as the modern-retro Urban EV Concept at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show followed up by the e Prototype shown at Geneva Motor Show this spring, the five-door Honda e is due in 2020 and marks the brand’s first mass-production electric vehicle in Europe. It will also contribute to Honda’s commitment of 100% of its European sales with electrified powertrains by 2025

Since the prototype of the Honda e was presented at Geneva, Honda has received more than 20,000 expressions of interest across Europe.

Customers in the selected markets can make a reservation for priority ordering via the Honda website for their country.
