Ordered one earlier this year expecting delivery next month, cant wait. I do wish they released a petrol hot hatch version of this though would sell like hot cakes.
I really like the Honda E. I think it has a cool retro and futuristic look. Has the quality of tech and enjoyable room for events. Definitely a decent daily driver.
I was sceptical about this little car to start with but you’ve actually changed my mind about it, Tom. I think it’s very cool and as you say, the perfect town car
Now Archie is back racing, he’s showing his true silver spoon personality. Not a fan. Tom is fantastic as ever, loving to positivity towards the Honda!
I was watching and thinking why is Archie not his usual chirpy self then he revealed at the end of the video that he has a new girlfriend, explains It all!
Good banter chaps, Great review, range is great for the city, or the Isle of Man where I am at the moment, could well be a contender for my daily......
I enjoy your videos Tom you always have a positive vibe on things and I think there is a place for this car for sure. I have to comment on Archie though, what’s with! He seemed uninterested and quite up himself I felt. If he didn’t want to be part of the video why bother. Spoilt what could have been an interesting vlog for me...
Great & interesting video Tom I quite like it & the colour You made me laugh when you found out it had a SPORT mode and Archie wasn’t impressed thanks Tom catch up soon mate
There are 3 problems with Honda E, despite the japanese craftsmannship: a. short nose: collision issues in an accident b. ultra small trunk: not really suited for a shopping city car c. a perfectly executed Mazda MX30, with perfect layout / size for the same price
with those camera's on the car instead of mirrors if they get dirty snow rain you loose your cruise control and have to stop and clean them to get your cruise back. That's what happens on the merc truck's anyway
Honestly, I don’t like EV cars that much , but vehicles with electric powertrain is almost a tendency, so we need to accept it. So,if I’m not interested about Electric car, then why I love Honda e ??? There have some reasons that why I love Honda e. Firstly, Honda e has the NSX DNA. Like the door handles on Honda e it’s actually the same as the NSX,the other part is the roof railing is made of the same material that use on the doors of the NSX .secondly, Honda e is such an adorable looking car !!!! I feel happy when every time I seen it. thirdly, is the interior, the interior inside the Honda e looked like a concept car, is have big screens all over the interior, The screen have so many functions,another cool part is Honda e has digital side mirrors and rearview mirrors , it just looks so cool at all. lastly, It got 50/50 weight and The shortest turning circle that only has 4.3m. So the car can not only has Flexible control but also great balance. I know that people may to say Honda e it’s not good for long trip because of poor EV range, but I think Honda e is a excellent city use car, it has an outstanding looking,backup camera, Self-parking, and how easy to drive. So if you need the coolest City-Use car, get the Honda e, you will not be wrong !!!
I really like the Honda e, I was thinking of getting one but due to the range I cannot. Reason being is my commute is 70 miles each way. Love the video , you need a bright colour, black is not the right colour for this car. Just saying.👍
@@TGE The issue though is the people that this car would be perfect for £30k is a lot of money, for going around town and to work and back who drive 30 odd miles a day, this type of person buy's Fiesta's etc for £15k-£20k cannot afford or will not pay £30k for small city/hatch back. It is like Jay Leno says, "for a new car to succeed, the technology has to better not equal than what already exists." The technology is better but it's twice the price, a car like the Honda E would be perfect for me for the driving I do and if it was the price of a equivalent petrol car I would buy one, but If I had £30k to spend on a new car I would buy a Mazda MX5 for the weekend and a Kia Picanto for general use.
this could make a very good fleet vehicle for city social services. i want this sooooooooo badly. best designed car since the Beetle and Mustang and Golf GTI. perfect london car? give it a brit custom paint job, flag, you know, all austin powers.
To be fair to Sadiq Khan it wasn't his decision to increase the congestion charge price and times. The Government forced it on him as part of the TFL bailout and then worked a masterclass to convince us to the blame falls on the mayor
I love the Honda E. It's so unique, quirky and somewhat memorable to a child or anyone. That colour is so me aswell being a 19 year old XD. Yet another lovely video Tom. Crisps!!!
That is a cool looking car and its bang on for city life 👍🏻. Have you considered getting a high performance EV for your fleet like Archie is doing? I think your content would be great with one 🙌🏻
YOOOOOOOO AN AQUARIUM THAT'S SIIIICKKKK. I'D HAVE THAT ON ALL THE TIME 😂 IMAGINE IF YOU COULD FEED THEM CHAOS. If you didn't show the aquarium I was about to be mad
The review actually starts two and a half minutes in so you can FF to that point. In fact, if the video was edited to cut out all the crap it would only be half the size.
What do you think? Should I add one to the garage? Forgot to also mention it has a normal 3 point plug in it at the front on the dash. Very cool. Bye
You should deffinatly get one..for the virtual fish tank alone. Who wouldn't want one in there car. All cars should have them lol
This must be the perfect London car Mr TGE.
The best LONDON RUclips “SOL” review from North America’s
ruclips.net/video/IMS285OCMhU/видео.html
I don't like Japanese cars
Archie gets stressed big-time. Guessing his race is coming up 🚗🏁 RACE MODE
TGE with actual informative and useful content. Chaos! Sitting throught the ads boy.
Thank you!
What’s up with Archie? Tom, you had to pull teeth to get anything out of him Reckon he’s gutted he ordered a Taycan instead of a Honda e 😂😂😂
Dunno why he bothers getting him in the videos.
@@unknown_user283 to be fair Archie is normally a good view, we all have off days.
Ordered one earlier this year expecting delivery next month, cant wait. I do wish they released a petrol hot hatch version of this though would sell like hot cakes.
It would sell very well because it would be much cheaper.
Tom, can you tell Archibold that 'genuinely' and 'generally' are two separate words. He's created a hybrid to form 'genuinerally'
I really like the Honda E. I think it has a cool retro and futuristic look. Has the quality of tech and enjoyable room for events. Definitely a decent daily driver.
Interior made of vegan materials, so if you get peckish you can have a nosh of the seats, excellent. 👍
Just don't expect to be full 🤣
@@jw198762012 well it'll keep you going untill the first available McDonalds drive through. 👍
Add a sun roof for that B12
And every time you get in the car it's compelled to tell you that it's vegan.
But just a little peckish
You know Archie seemed like he didn't really want to be there. Just seemed un interested.
John Malone Really?
I was sceptical about this little car to start with but you’ve actually changed my mind about it, Tom. I think it’s very cool and as you say, the perfect town car
Best comment in a video ever “a big bug bear of mine, every car I’ve ever been in doesn’t have an aquarium”
TGE is actually a good source of information regarding E.Vs, him having had an i3s. He knows what he’s talking about.
Social distancing archie - 5 min later sit next to each other 😂
Good one! Love this type of videos, just like your older ones!
It looks amazing
I appreciate your wisdom TGE TV and churning back at decent levels 😎✌
I wasn’t keen on Archie a while back but he’s actually grown on me 👍🏽😂 great vid tge as per 👌🏼
The Honda is interesting. The way the side mirrors work is definitely different. All over it's a nice and clean lined yet simple car.
Wood is sustainable, it grows on trees.
It's not. It's not replaced fats enough
You don't say..... lol :)
@@michigan_supercars6569 apparently 👍
It is trees😂
@@j-bolo6637 yep 👍😎
Now Archie is back racing, he’s showing his true silver spoon personality. Not a fan. Tom is fantastic as ever, loving to positivity towards the Honda!
TGE: Somehow Honda have made the door mirrors road legal.
Audi E-Tron: Am I a joke to you...
Well Merc trucks have mirror cams so I don't know why Honda are so special in making them road legal.
They're awesome cars, I don't think the range matters for that type of car.
That range is enough in city
It does for 30k
Ben Kirkham 30k is cheap as chips
@@danhall5761 sorry rockafeller. Model 3's are 40 and they have a 200 mile range
@@97JGK And they're as ugly as sin
Yesss! TGE finally got a Honda on the channel.
It’s like watching the new Top Gear team. Chaos.
Maybe I missed something but what are the flippers behind the steering wheel for ?
Saw one of these in the dealer when I was picking up my car the other day. Looks like something from the future
I was watching and thinking why is Archie not his usual chirpy self then he revealed at the end of the video that he has a new girlfriend, explains It all!
I saw a black on black one a few weeks back and it was 🔥🔥🔥, I'm a fan
Can't help but notice that the turn indicators are on the left. Not on the right. Good that they are consistent with German cars.
CHAOS! Congrats Archie, we knew you could do it!
Love this amazing idea to cover this, something a bit different! Kinda want one now!
Love videos with you and Archie together
Good banter chaps, Great review, range is great for the city, or the Isle of Man where I am at the moment, could well be a contender for my daily......
Think its a cool little car, just needs a bigger battery for improved range.
Did Archie get dumped by his new girlfriend during the making of this video?
God only knows
Girlfriend ?🤔
@@f0revery0ung101 🤣🤣
Good looking car, shame about the boot space. How long does it take to fully charge?
Virtual aquirium shouts on point.

It’s a great car. Dream Automotive are developing parts for it! Eibach are visiting them this week!
This man is literally full of surprises, nice to see a RUclips breaking boundaries too and buying something nice and different!
I really like the Honda e, I was thinking of getting one but due to the range I cannot. Reason being is my commute is 70 miles each way. Love the video , you need a bright colour, black is not the right colour for this car. Just saying.👍
Low key I want to buy one
Ever since I first saw pics of this I thought it was very cool. I'd definitely have one 😎. Archie didn't look too impressed though!!?
Is it exempt from congestion charge?
Wow! First person to like a video for the first time ever on any vlog.
Love the Honda E, only thing I would change would be the wheels, and then it would be chaos!
This one is in botb this week, along with the electric Mini, mustang and Volvo, I would take the Mini just because I like more how it looks.
Love the channel keep it up 👍 from the US
Archie is growing up. I prefer the new one, myself!
Any chance of some Mini Cooper E content/ test drive?
The Honda E is good, not at nearly £30k though, it needs to be the same price as similar petrol cars circa £15k-£20k.
I think it’s pretty good value
@@TGE The issue though is the people that this car would be perfect for £30k is a lot of money, for going around town and to work and back who drive 30 odd miles a day, this type of person buy's Fiesta's etc for £15k-£20k cannot afford or will not pay £30k for small city/hatch back.

To expensive for a ev IDE rather just get a cheeper car like a golf GTE best of petrol and electric
Archie pretty much fuming throughout that drive 😂
What did David Hasselhoff say, when he saw his new film car? - Really really cool piece of Kitt.
what a beautiful car, simple and clean
What a cool little car. Actually really like it. Perfect for the city.
Yep we like that, almost ordered one myself. Chaos
The Honda E on the stand in 2017 wasn't a prototype, the current model already existed and Honda made a show-model out of it just for the 2017 show😷
this could make a very good fleet vehicle for city social services. i want this sooooooooo badly. best designed car since the Beetle and Mustang and Golf GTI. perfect london car? give it a brit custom paint job, flag, you know, all austin powers.

Fair enough. I’m ignorant af 😅
@@TGE Ah mate I honestly rate you're alright with admitting not knowing
Lol also we're all pretty ignorant to be fair
Archie exposes himself at some point during the video so make sure you watch it all people.
You're welcome Tom😂
This is a very modern take on the civic gen 1. I think honda have really got it right with this one.
Archie looks like a moody child the whole way through the video 😂 the Honda E is incredible just a shame the range isn't decent
Boom! Was just about to watch a film. That can wait 22 minutes :)
The colour is a bit plop, but the car looks cool. Good video again mate.
Archie ordered a Taycan LOL no doubt it will end the same as the RS6 he ordered.
Great car but the camera wing mirror is a big compensation payout waiting to happen....
Lol....did I see this car end last week driving down the M1 near Rugby lol...one of many press cars no doubt! I like em!
I love the Honda E. It's so unique, quirky and somewhat memorable to a child or anyone. That colour is so me aswell being a 19 year old XD. Yet another lovely video Tom. Crisps!!!
Love the E, such a well designed car. Interior is mayhem. Great video Tom.
Who took the jam out of Archie’s doughnut?
It’s cool, I do like the EV cars, nice Honda have made it like the prototype, wish I had a virtual fish tank.
Very very kool little car which is clearly beneath archie. He's not into these peasant affordable cars lol. I want to see a Type R version of this 😈
Good chat. Best banter in a while. Gordon turning up would have clinched it.
My guy certainly had his weetabix before filming this one
That has to be the best infotainment system on the market. Mercedes and BMW are behind on this one. Honda punching above its weight here
That is a cool looking car and its bang on for city life 👍🏻. Have you considered getting a high performance EV for your fleet like Archie is doing? I think your content would be great with one 🙌🏻
English car reviewers always be like larking prats on the verge of saying my dad could beat your dad up.
From 11.34 onwards, Archie just loving life. Ha.
Hmm what are the flappy paddles for though??
Sorry for spamming but ordering one of these in black should be forbidden. Literally half of the car's styling cues will get lost ;)
Bring Mamood back !!! 🙈😢 great car and vid. 😎
"I wasn't aware that this was legal", Audi e-tron has had this as an option since 2019....
Honda-e is cool and everything, but I wish you’d talk about the masonry
Why does it have paddles?? If this had the range of the Peugeot e208 it would be perfect
it looks like new mr beans car in this color
This car looks very much like my new Honda N1 that I have in Japan, incidentally, what are the paddle shifts doing on that car ?.
YOOOOOOOO AN AQUARIUM THAT'S SIIIICKKKK. I'D HAVE THAT ON ALL THE TIME 😂 IMAGINE IF YOU COULD FEED THEM CHAOS. If you didn't show the aquarium I was about to be mad
You can feed them!
The review actually starts two and a half minutes in so you can FF to that point. In fact, if the video was edited to cut out all the crap it would only be half the size.
Such a cool looking car. I love it!
Where could I go about to find out more like where can I go if I wanted to buy one ??
Search for your local Honda dealer! I’m sure they’ve got a demo you can have a look round/try!
I was next to that car spotter in red then I went into a shop , and then u drove by , my luck is actually appalling
Will that charging port fill up with water if charging in the rain?
Hi Gary 👍👍
Stephen Fogarty 😂😂😂 Hi Stephen. Nice name.
Gary Fogarty hi Gary, nice Name. 😆😆
I’m sure they’ve thought about it.
grant11091980 yeah I am sure! That close up just didn’t look like it would drain well.
how does it compare to model 3?
