Honda unveils its electric concepts

Honda

Electric vehicle enthusiasts, get ready to shift your expectations because Honda's not just sticking to terra firma. From electric cars to airborne concepts, Honda just shared a bunch of concepts previewing its electrified future.

After the debut of the Honda Prologue EV, it's apparent that Honda is not only jumping onto the electric bandwagon but aims to steer it. A new commercial has now revealed its electrifying roadmap.

Now, let's address the flying elephant in the room: an EV with wings. Yes - Honda is teasing a concept of an eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) vehicle – a futuristic blend of a drone and an electric car, boasting a range of about 249 miles. While Honda seems like it's reaching for the skies (pun absolutely intended), other major players like Hyundai have also been dabbling in similar concepts.

Back on solid ground, Honda's commercial showcased two electric concepts. The first, bearing a striking resemblance to the e:N2 Concept, sits under Honda's e:N series. Its design – accentuated by sharp character lines – isn't just for aesthetics. Those lines promise to enhance aerodynamic efficiency, potentially increasing the vehicle's electric range. The second concept feels a bit nostalgic, echoing the design elements of the Prologue. Though Honda humorously labeled it a "fictional vehicle," the illuminated "K9" badge suggests otherwise. With no grille in sight, this vehicle is undeniably gesturing at a future EV model.

For those feeling a bit nostalgic, let's take a brief drive down memory lane. Honda isn't a newbie in the green movement. This is the same automaker that gave us the 1975 Honda Civic, the first car meeting the US's stringent emission standards with its CVCC engine. 1999, it introduced the Insight hybrid to the US market, smoothly bypassing the Toyota Prius. And in 2008? Honda was pioneering with the FCX Clarity, offering the world its first hydrogen fuel cell for retail purchase.

Taking a slight detour, the commercial also flaunted the all-electric Honda Motocompacto. This quirky e-scooter, which conveniently transforms into a briefcase, might not set speed records with its 15 mph limit, but its 12 miles of range should be more than enough for urban commuters.

Honda's environmental commitment doesn't start or end with EVs. Honda's mission is clear: achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. But first, it has set its sights set on an all-electric lineup by 2040.
