While buying my Jazz I sat in the e model in the showroom. What I noticed is the back seat is only wide enough for two passengers; only two seat belts. The salesman told me he had personal use of one. He couldn't find a way to fit his child's safety seat into the back.

Someone, somewhere here, wondered how many Honda e have been sold in GB?

Looks like about 120 cars were registered to end June 2021.

Good link.

Shows that Jazz sales are running slightly higher than previous years since 2009. Quite low though.

Crosstar sales far in excess of the Jazz.

In Crosstar land? I haven't seen one yet.

Yep - I haven't seen a Cross Star or a Honda E. I'm just wondering if the low range (80 miles in winter conditions) has put people off the Honda E. The Renault Zoe has a 50 kwh battery and can do up to 245 miles and, even on a bad day, you'll get more than 150 miles. Much cheaper as well.

The air drag contribution of door mirrors is tiny compared to all the other "bits and pieces" underneath the car, mirrors are also cheap and last forever, cameras deteriorate, an owner of an Audi EV with cameras for rear view is complaining about the cameras life expectancy of 18 months, at 18 months of service the image quality deteriorated to poor, they were not cheap to replace!

BMW I3 owners have the same issues.

It's the quality of German electronics. Overcomplex, underdeveloped, unreliable.
