At last year’s Japan Mobility Show, Honda presented the world premiere of the Super-ONE Prototype, a compact EV designed to turn everyday driving into an exciting and uplifting experience. For the first time, Honda is showcasing the Super-ONE Prototype in one of the colors to be adopted for the production model.
The Super-ONE Prototype features “Boost Mode,” developed exclusively for this model, which increases power output, while synchronizing the simulated 7-speed transmission and Active Sound Control system to generate a powerful engine sound and sharp gearshift feel, as if driving an engine-powered vehicle with a traditional multi-gear transmission. By combining such engine sound and gearshift feel with acceleration unique to EVs, the Super-ONE Prototype enables the “joy of driving at the will of the driver” and offers customers a new and uplifting driving experience in the electrified era.
Moreover, the Super-ONE Prototype became the first Honda compact model to adopt the Bose Premium Sound System, featuring exclusive acoustic tuning jointly developed with Bose.
The production model based on the Super-ONE Prototype is scheduled to go on sale in Japan before the end of 2026, as a fun EV unique to Honda, which will enable customers to enjoy both driving and the in-cabin experience.
