Honda announces three all-new electrified models

Honda has unveiled its next electrified model for Europe, the all-new Civic e:HEV. Available to European customers later this year, the 11th-generation Civic completes the brand’s commitment to electrify its entire mainstream European automobile range by the end of 2022.

Honda also confirmed the further expansion of its electrified product line-up in 2023, to create its widest European line up for many years. New additions include an all-electric B-segment SUV, previewed as the e:Ny1 Prototype, a C-segment full hybrid SUV, and the all-new CR-V, which will be available with both full hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrain options for the first time in Europe.

Coming to market in 2023, the e:Ny1 electric vehicle (EV) will be at the centre of Honda’s future product line up. Offering the unique blend of dynamics, technology and design that Honda is known for, the compact SUV will provide a great option for families looking for their first EV.

“The completion of our electrification goal marks a significant moment for Honda in Europe,” says Tom Gardner, senior vice president, Honda Motor Europe. “However, we’re not resting on our laurels. We are already well advanced with our plans to further expand the choice of battery-electric and hybrid vehicles for our customers and increase our offering in the fast-growing B- and C-SUV segments. The new models we will introduce in 2023 set the course for the next generation of electrified Honda cars, all retaining the engaging driving dynamics, comfort and exceptional usability to which our customers have become accustomed.”

 

11th generation Honda Civic
Completing Honda’s electrified mainstream model line-up for Europe, the new Civic is the latest car to be offered exclusively with e:HEV (hybrid electric vehicle) technology, joining the brand’s other electrified models: Jazz, Jazz Crosstar, CR-V, HR-V and Honda e.

Powering the Civic is the most advanced iteration of Honda’s unique e:HEV powertrain, which combines a power-dense lithium-ion battery, two compact, powerful electric motors, and a newly developed 2.0-litre direct injection DOHC i-VTEC petrol engine. The Civic has been targeted to achieve CO2 emissions of less than 110 grams per km which is less than 5 l/100km with a maximum motor output of 135 kW and 315Nm of torque.

The new Civic will be one of the most compelling packages in its class when it arrives in Europe from Autumn 2022. Superior standards of visibility and comfort are coupled with impressive dynamics, efficiency and an unrivalled suite of advanced safety technologies.
