Lightly modified K cars like the Suzuki Jimny have proven there's demand for these models in the UK
0:04
and now Honda's launching one of its own. The Honda Super N here is an electric K car designed for the driver
0:11
but unlike most cars here, this is not concept. This is actually a prototype, and it's destined for UK roads next year

A base power figure of 62 brake horsepower is certainly modest, but a weight figure in the region of a ton will allow it to make the most of what it has
0:25
The entry-level 105 has around twice that power, but then it weighs almost 1500 kilograms. Also designed to boost engagement is the inclusion of
0:33
panels behind the steering wheel for what Honda is calling virtual multi-gear shift control
0:37
simulating gear changes in a similar fashion to the system in the Hyundai iONIQ 5N. Honda also
0:42
says it will replicate the sound of a combustion car. With a greater focus on engagement comes the
0:47
need for an increase in track width, making swollen arches a necessity. While the Super N is still a
0:52
tiny car relative to everything else on the road, these changes technically put it just outside
0:56
Japanese K-Car regulations. Details on driven wheels, performance, stats and sale price aren't yet known, but we do
1:02
know that this car will go on sale in the UK in the coming years, with its price point
1:06
significantly lower than the more premium Honda e that came before it
