New HONDA e:Ny1 2025 - FIRST LOOK & visual REVIEW (electric SUV)

Taking an in-depth look at the all-new 2025 Honda e:Ny1 electric SUV and sharing my honest thoughts after examining this latest EV challenger. The Honda e:Ny1 promises to compete with Tesla Model Y and Hyundai Kona Electric, but does it deliver on performance, range, and value? This comprehensive Honda e:Ny1 review covers everything from the massive 15.1-inch touchscreen and interior quality to real-world range testing and charging speeds.

The 2025 Honda e:Ny1 features a 201hp electric motor with 256 miles of claimed range, but real-world performance tells a different story. Starting at over £40,000, this electric SUV faces tough competition from more affordable alternatives like the Kia EV3 and MG ZS EV.

In this Honda e:Ny1 first look, I examine the exterior design, premium interior materials, spacious cabin, and that controversial giant touchscreen. The Honda e:Ny1 walkaround reveals impressive build quality and comfort levels, but also highlights some significant drawbacks including limited boot space at just 361 litres and slower 78kW charging speeds.

Honda e:Ny1 specifications include front-wheel drive, synthetic leather seating, Honda Sensing safety suite, and available panoramic sunroof on Advance trim. The Honda e:Ny1 interior impresses with quality materials but the exterior styling plays it safe compared to bolder EV designs.
This honest Honda e:Ny1 review covers performance, practicality, technology, and value to help you decide if Honda's latest electric SUV deserves your consideration in 2025's competitive EV market.
