- Today on Buckle Up, Jasper reviews Honda's difficult second album. The e:Ny1 has come under fire from the wider automotive press for poor range, lackluster performance, safe design and a high cost to entry but have they got it all wrong? Looking at what you can actually buy these for on the forecourts we think they might have, but let's find out.
Facing stiff competition in the form of the Hyundai Ioniq5, Tesla Model Y, Kia EV6, Toyota Bz4X, Subaru Solterra and Ford Mustang Mach E.

I actually live in The Cotswolds and recently had this car for a days test drive. I found no issues with it on country driving and loved it. I'm actually ordering mine tomorrow 😊
Great choice, we hope you enjoy it! What colour have you gone for?
@@BuckleUpShow I've gone for the topaz blue with the white interior 😊
@@BuckleUpShow I almost went for the Obsidian blue but my current Civic is Obsidian blue and time for a change. The Obsidian is a lovely colour though!
Great choice!
I just got my Honda e:Ny1 1 week ago. Before I had 10 years experience with other BEV (Tesla, KIA, BMW, Volvo). And... that's the reason why I ordered this Honda! So far totally satisfied!!!
Glad you're enjoying your e:Ny1 ☺️
Generally tempted by one of these with the current deal, Honda have on. The only thing that concerns me compared to other EV's, is the gap between WLTP range and what you seem to get....
If you can make a real-world range of 160 miles work for you (which is definitely possible, unless you're regularly doing round trips of over that distance), plus if you can charge at home, this is actually a car that will fulfil your needs.
We currently have a Škoda Enyaq and looking to add a second EV to our drive.
The PCP deals on these are fantastic, a lot of car for your money.
But my question is … will it fit a golden retriever in the boot? 👀
The boot space is less than in a VW Golf, so probably not
@@BuckleUpShow Bang goes that dream then!
How did honda manage to get such a low range with that size battery and power output?
As the owner of the new kona ev, we have a bigger car, touch more power, slightly smaller battery and yet a proper 240 mile range ?
No heat pump is a big part of it, but then presumably motor inefficiency
@@BuckleUpShow
Your up early Jasper.
You on cow milking duty?
You've got Harry, and I've got a long commute this morning 😅
Hi do you think it's better or volkswagen - id.4 crozz
The ID.4 is better than this, but there are many EVs better than the ID.4 too
there's a ENS1 that is china car, same thing+ has a bit more range, lacks android auto i think and heated steering wheel, but same car, costs 25.000$ for the full package, less than 20k$ if going for the base model
I bet there are people who wish that was available here
Would have been good 3-4 years ago. The Honda dealer near me is offering £11k?!?! Dealer contribution. Must be struggling to shift them.
That's a very healthy deposit. Sounds like someone needs to hit their sales targets...
They were over priced to start with.
This would be a great car if it were only competing with Toyota; unfortunately, there are tons of other far better options. Even Nissan has more interesting options with the Ariya and Leaf.
Perhaps Honda is relying on their hardcore fanbase to replace their gasoline HR-V with this in the future while not losing out on their YoY with their financing options. I can't see people who aren't already big fans of Honda getting this car over the others.
Personally, I think an electrified CR-V would've been a better base for this price, but they probably didn't want all the sales to go towards that just yet.
I think that, ultimately, the thing that will sell these is the surprisingly good monthly financing offers that are available to try and shift them. It's not an objectively bad car, and in some areas it's actually pretty good vs rivals) but there aren't enough stand out features to make a buyer who is more interested in cars choose this over a competitor.
@@BuckleUpShow
Right, it'd be an easy decision for people who are too scared to try new brands with good financing. Ultimately, the biggest downside of this car seems to be pricing. Imagine if it went against the likes of MG4 without financing; then it'd be very competitive (and make a great thumbnail).
A bit confused really, Jasper. You have effectively “damned this vehicle with faint praise”.
Because it’s not as bad as it’s been made out to be. It’s not great. It’s just middle of the road. Hence the ‘faint praise’.
170 miles range 😂
Long way from ideal
I get 250 out of mine
You must drive like a saint
@@BuckleUpShow nope, normal driving mode and fan switched off. If using the heater its about 220 miles. Weird thing is in hot weather using the fan and aircon actually there is zero impact on range…
@@BuckleUpShowdid you actually test the range?
The model sold in the UK is manufactured in China and is missing some very basic features, such as a speed limiter. Poor.
Is there a particular reason you've linked where it's made and what features it's available with?
@@BuckleUpShowwhat a bizarrely passive aggressive response. They’ve added some information that a buyer might find useful, why does that offend you?
Well if we're being useful it has adaptive cruise control as standard, which most people would consider to be a big improvement over a speed limiter
@@bonbonbonfiremisinformation is what they have provided.
Picking mine up on Friday and it’s in the beautiful blue. 🩵
Great choice on the colour! We hope you enjoy it!
