Pricing Details Confirmed For Honda e
The focus of the Honda e is simplicity and usability, it will meet the requirements of modern and traditional lifestyles whilst integrating the latest technology and connectivity. As the nature of testing new cars is so rigorous, the car performs extremely well in all-round driving, from short town trips to the comfortable cabin for those longer journeys – the car is very responsive and easy to drive.
Honda has provided the first official recommended pricing information for the Honda e electric vehicle. The mass production version of the hotly anticipated car will be unveiled today at Frankfurt motor show, following a summer of appearances across Europe for the prototype version, including the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
Recommended prices for Honda e will start from £26,160* for the 100kW version, rising to £28,660 for the “Advance” grade that includes further specification and a motor output increased to 113kW. The car will also be available on finance and start from £299 per month for the base grade**.
For just an extra £50 a month**, customers can order the Honda e Advance which adds Centre Mirror System (in addition to Side Camera Mirror System), Honda parking pilot which aids the driver in parking and is a first in the Honda range, and a premium audio offering.
Those customers that have already placed a reservation will today receive an invitation to contact their local dealer to secure an order, and a place as one of the first customers to receive the car next year.
Order books for the Honda e Advance are now open, while order books for the Honda e will open in early 2020. The first deliveries of the Honda e Advance will arrive in the UK from early summer 2020.
