Aptly named, the N-Box is Honda's offering in Japan's most-popular vehicle segment – the kei hatchback
And as you'd expect from Honda; it's peppy, feels tight to drive, and is very smartly designed
Honda really are the BMW of Japan.
They build sharp and clever driving tools, and at one point equipped most of its passenger car line-up with a sophisticated double-wishbone suspension setup.
It only took the Porsche 911 some 50+ years to get to that stage, and only recently. Honda builds cars properly, and also believes in smart design. You’ll added convenience features dotted throughout the Honda N Box, like extra side-view mirrors and smart storage spaces.
Those Honda ‘magic’ back seats are another such example of smart design. The second row of seatings folds both up, and down. It means you can either fold the seat base up to store things smartly, or fold it completely flat to fit something huge. The second row of seating also slides and reclines, and can fit either two adults or two child seats via ISOFIX mounting points.
It’s extremely comfy in every seat of the Honda N-Box Custom. The engine feels strong, and the ride more controller than other kei-class cars
I looks the most-resolved too; almost steely and serious.
The car pictured – 2019 Honda N-Box Custom G EX
This Honda N-Box Custom was built in August 2018 and is an ‘G EX’ trim level.
That means it’s powered by a 660cc three-cylinder ‘S07a’ engine. Power is handled by a CVT and sent exclusively to the front wheels.
As a top-spec Honda N-Box Custom G EX, it features all the fruit. That includes keyless entry and push-button start, adaptive cruise control, electric sliding doors, automatic emergency braking (city – low speed), lane departure warning, full LED headlights and suede/pleather interior trim.
This vehicle was purchased from Nagoya, Japan, and comes with two sets of keys. It presents in above-average condition for its age, with its exterior wholly original. The interior is in great condition too, this vehicle has not been smoked in.
Its blue metallic paint is a factory optional colour, too.
