Just a few days ago we’ve seen a new Honda concept, the U3-X personal mobility device, which might just become a Segway serious competitor, and change forever the way we imagine personal mobility. And today we have the pleasure to see another impressive concept from Honda, the EV-N. It might be small, but it will certainly have at least one surprise for you once you open that door.
And there I go spoiling everything for you! That tiny EV-N car would come bundled with the U3-X device. In fact the later would be housed right inside the door of the EV-N which is more than convenient. Drive your EV-N electric car to the city, park it conveniently and then hop right on that U3-X as it will get you to where you need to be.
Yes, you heard me correctly, the EV-N is an electric concept which will be ready to admire at the Tokyo Motor Show soon. The EV-N is just one of the concept car which will be unveiled in Tokyo and it’s going to be part of Honda’s green HELLO! Zone line. The EV-N is a two-seater that looks tiny and very shy but don’t be fooled by appearances. Smaller than a Mini Cooper, the EV-N could find its way perfectly no matter how crowded your city really is. Features like a solar roof, a communications system and swappable seat fabrics will make you love it even more.

But the best feature by far is the inclusion of the U3-X in the passenger’s doors. It’s like driving the new Batmobile. You have a cool personal mobility device neatly tucked inside a cool car. Well maybe you do lack the Batman suit and all the dangerous weapons but you get the main idea. I’d personally love to drive such a bundle every day but right now we have no idea when Honda will make the EV-N and U3-X available and for what prices. There is however one thing that troubles me about the U3-X. Its top speed is supposed to be 4 MPH which is about as much as my top walking speed when I’m in a hurry. And when I am in a hurry I tend to look for means of transportation that are a little faster than I can be!
