Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment.

The Super-ONE is powered by the same 29.6 kWh battery as the N-ONE e, offering a WLTP driving range of up to 274 km (170 miles) with fast charging (up to 80%) capabilities in about 30 minutes.
After launching in Japan, the Super-One will go on sale in Europe, the UK, Australia, and other overseas markets shortly.
30 kWh and 170 miles range?! That's >5 mi/kWh, I haven't seen anything run that well (consistently). Big if true for everyone - I'd buy one in an instant if Honda had a little more BEV chops, I'm still a bit skeptical of them.
My first EV was an eGolf with a 24 kWh battery. At its peak that was 100 mi range (was rated 80-something). Would have killed for this back then.
Small battery = less mass to carry = less energy required to move
Combined with modern motors and you get this kind of performance
Super-One

Curious to see if Mini reacts. Though I guess Mercedes didn't with the e. Maybe they'll call the next one golf.
BYD should get in this hot hatch business and make a sporty version of one of their small models
