Video Summary

Here is the summary of the YouTube video:
- The Honda e has a WLTP range of around 130 miles from a full charge and a starting price from around £26,000.
- It has first-generation Civic looks and Japanese K-car inspiration.
- It has cool circular headlights at the front and a black fascia that runs along the front.
- The charging port is incorporated nicely into the design.
- The side mirrors are actually door cameras.
- The dashboard is a screen fest with two central screens for infotainment.
- The graphics aren't razor sharp and resolution isn't slick, and it has an abundance of menus and shortcut buttons making it confusing.
- It does offer Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
- Seat bases are short.
- It can only seat four people.
- Boot capacity is 171L with a 5-seat capacity, making it one of the least practical electric cars on sale.
- Charging speeds reach a maximum of around 50 kW: on a rapid charger, 0-80% is done in around 30 mins. With a 7 kW wall box, 0-100% can take 4.1 hours. Using a 3-pin domestic cable for charging takes 18.8 hours.
- Performance off the line is impressive.
- Steering is communicative and has a well-weighted feel, and the self-centering function is aggressive.
- Its price is close to the Kia e-Niro, which is bigger and has a longer range.
