2023 Honda e:Ny 1




We cannot be completely impartial with this report, because we have just bought a Kona electric and of course we are also looking at its successor, which is now starting up. So, keep an eye on us.


A confession first, we find the Honda a little better styled than the new Kona, which we find too modernistic. And our Kona is too short to compare.

The body was largely taken over from the HR-V.

4.4 m length has always been a good compromise. Front-wheel drive as with the Kona, although a frunk still fits into the new Kona despite front-wheel drive. But that's just the beginning of the comparison rally.


Yes, it is quite comparable in length, but compared to 466 liters of luggage space, the Honda loses a lot. Presumably, there is at least minimally more space on the back seat. However, you will look in vain for the folding upwards system famous for Honda.

It continues with smaller defeats of the e:NY1. It loses around 4 kWh of net capacity and 85 Nm of torque with the same performance. You don't necessarily need them, but you might want to have the drive dampened a little better than with the Kona.

However, if the curb weight of 1,663 kg proves to be true, it would be significantly more favorable than the Kona.

But maybe it doesn't seem to spring and steer in a Honda-typical way. The Honda also scores with the 15.1'' center display and the large touch fields in a well-made interior. In contrast to the Hyundai, it also stands directly on an electric platform.


After all, the e:NY1 puts Honda closer to the competition than the Toyota bz4x, and it does so with a very pleasing exterior inherited from the HRV, including the center front tailgate.

In terms of charging capacity, there is still enough room for improvement in both electric cars.

Both are not much different in price, because the Kona's large battery will probably bring its price to € 48,500. It is still unclear whether the Honda will then be a little better equipped, e.g. with a fixed glass roof.


Important addendum:

From a German point of view, at least in the case of the European version of the Honda e:NY1, a product from Vitesco Technologies, which emerged from Continental and in which Schaeffler also has a stake, comes into its own, namely the complete drive unit, which weighs only 76 kg. Since 2019, more than three quarters of a million units have been manufactured for a total of eight vehicle brands.
