Honda is continuing to tease details of the Super-One ahead of its Japanese-market launch later this year. The carmaker has firmed up some exterior and interior details, including a new hero colour called Boost Violet Pearl. The purple hue is said to be inspired by blue jets, a rare form of lightning that shoots upwards into the upper atmosphere instead of down towards the ground. The company has also confirmed that the production model’s wheels will be an inch smaller than on last year’s prototype, measuring 15 inches in diameter. They retain the eight-spoke two-tone design, however, with a finned design inspired by heat sinks – a similar motif is found on the front air intake. Beyond that, the Super-One is entirely faithful to the show car, sporting the N-One e:‘s body but with blistered fenders and a bulldog-like, wheel-at-each-corner stance inspired by the City Turbo II. Vertical air vents dotted throughout the car help guide air around the wheels and out the rear bumper, the latter preventing a “parachute” effect that creates lift. Inside, the Super-One continues to share much of its interior architecture with the N-One e:, albeit with what seem like more heavily bolstered front seats. The steering wheel features a purple Boost button to match the exterior paint – pressing it optimises the front motor’s power output and enables simulates gear changes with seven speeds, similar to the Prelude. A dedicated screen for the seven-inch instrument display shows the battery temperature, a power meter and even a tachometer for the fake revs. As previously reported, the Super-One is also the first compact Honda to feature a Bose sound system with eight speakers. No technical details have been announced just yet, but specs that were leaked on Honda’s Singaporean website (since deleted) listed outputs of 95 PS (70 kW) and 162 Nm of torque – smack dab in the middle between the kei car regulation-limited N-One e: (64 PS/162 Nm) and Honda’s previous small EV, the e (154 PS/315 Nm). We still don’t know the range, but given that the company quotes a DC fast charging time from 20 to 80% in the same 30 minutes as the N-One e:, we can assume the battery is the same 29.6 kWh unit as that car. As such, as the Super-One is quite a bit more powerful, we can expect its range to be slightly shorter than the N-One e:’s WLTP-rated 295 km.
