The Honda N Box is Honda's entry into Japan's most-popular vehicle segment.
And like all Hondas, it's fun to drive and feels quality inside and out
You could consider Honda the BMW of Japan.
They build cars with excellent handling and at one point equipped most of their passenger car lineup with a sophisticated double-wishbone suspension setup.
It only took the Porsche 911 some 50+ years to get to that stage. The quality and thought in Honda’s products are noticeably better than those of rivals Nissan, Toyota, and Suzuki.
Smart features in this car include adaptive cruise control, heated seats, rear parking sensors, full automatic LED headlights, and Honda’s ‘magic’ back seats. As an example of design genius, the second row of seating splits in half and folds both up and down, meaning you can either fold the seat base up and store things in the footwell or fold it completely flat to fit something huge on top.
The second row is surprisingly spacious and will fit either two adults comfortably or two child seats with ease. Other sweet touches include dual electric sliding doors, keyless entry & start, and plenty of cup holders.
The engine feels strong, and its ride quality is more controlled than other kei-class cars. It’ll do 110 km/h on the motorway just fine, making it the ideal second car to have in the household.
It’s the most resolved-looking kei car on the market too, and has a high perceived quality at first glance.
