Title: Discounts on e:Ny1
Post by: Bristol_Crosstar on March 17, 2024, 09:14:12 AM
When the e:Ny1 EV was introduced I didn't even consider it an option with a list price of around £45K, it seems far too expensive. However, enormous discounts are being given on EV's from dealers at the moment and a quick look on AutoTrader shows new models being advertised at just over £32K with used 73 plate models in upper 20's., ie they are priced around the same as the HR-V. At those prices I may consider one when looking at a replacement for my Crosstar.

Hang onto your Crosstar, avoid the failing sword of EV's

Insurance group 39, so get a quote before you decide to buy!

It doesn't get very good reviews and I read somewhere that it's not a 'real' Honda but a Chinese clone model with Honda badges

I would say take a look at how low slung the battery pack on this thing is...

Clearly it's an adaptation of the HR-V and suffers in this respect because of it. Ground clearance is worse than a normal Jazz and it's an SUV!

Ground Clearance - Non load (mm): 135
Ground Clearance - with Full Load (mm): 111.3

Jazz is 136.0 and 146 (for the Crosstar).

Normal HR-V is: 188 unladen and 149 with a full load!
