I was driving from Amsterdam to Wrocław (Poland) 1100km in 17h time. Bit long cause in Poland fast charging points are bit to far for Honda e, therefore lost some time there. However I love Germany for free fast charging points. So basically I spend 19€ in total for my 1100km trip 😎 My record is 260km range!!! On highway 95km/h behind truck or camper 😁 12.3 kWh average consumption Love my Honda e

Lol I love how when the E is braking with adaptive cruise control the little E graphic puts its brake lights on.

Great video Ian really enjoyed it! Reminds me of the early days when you had your leaf and testing the extremes! Thanks again!

Another brilliant video, Ian. Loving the series on the E. Something I’ve not seen covered in any reviews (certainly not ones I’ve watched)…what is the sound quality like from the stereo?

Saw you in Lidl tonight and it reminded me all about your channel, had to give it another watch. You should upload more.

Thanks for that Ian , my 2021 model does not seem to have the window operation from the remote , there is no mention of it in the owners manual either . My summer range is around 125 miles . The car has done 7000 miles now .

Thanks for the update. I think any range test of a car should be normal driving with heating and air con etc on. I think seeing how much you can get driving economically is a useful extra test to see how much extra you can eek out if things are getting tight. In the last two weeks I've done a couple of 200 mile plus motorway trips and being able to do an indicated 70 mph without worrying about range in my ICE car is something I couldn't have done in the Zoe (two charging stops on the last trip would have been needed unless I went down to truck speed in which case an hour stop would have been required). I really like the Honda E other than without more range and faster charging it wouldn't suit me, a pity because it seems to be a great motorway car from the actual driving perspective. I suspect recent car price rises mean you may have made money on the car. A VW Golf will also do the slamming on the brakes thing if you go into a parking space too fast for it's liking. I find it a little hard to understand why the Honda uses so much power per mile for such a small car.

OK, so that's what the odd creak in the LEAF is. The look on your son's face when you said you were going to run the battery right down, priceless.

A lovely car in several ways, but it's definitely over-priced for the abysmal battery range. In the 2020's, people expect at least twice that Summer range nowadays.Belated thanks for the review, Ian. 🙂👍

Not seen a video for 7 months? Is this the end of an era?

Lots more range than my 24 kWh leaf with 30 miles 2012 leaf

Great review. Are you getting the dashboard creaking looked at as mine also has two creaks, one on the dashboard and one near the passenger b-pillar.

Thanks for the video Ian - it's always helpful to know what real-world range an EV can achieve. SO.......10k miles eh? I guess the one thing we'd like to know is.......if you only had a family of 4, would you keep the Honda or the ZOE, if you had to ditch one of them ?

Very useful video, thanks! That's my car!

Hi Ian. This guy saved my life!!

Hi Ian, I’ve been enjoying your videos. Have you stopped filming? Just wondering if you are going to do some more. I hope all is well with you and your family. Nick

12:20 «Anyone can unlock the car”. Are you sure about that? Some cars have two stages of presence, so you’ll need to be right next to it to unlock, while presenting at further distance.

I like your sunglasses, please tell me what's brand is it?

Ian have you still got the Zoe , had to get rid of mine because boot won’t stop leaking , interior started smelling and going mouldy…

I don't know about EVs or the Honda E in particular but Mythbusters found that the aerodynamic drag of having the windows open actually uses more fuel than air conditioning (At highway speeds) Would be interesting to know if this is a quirk of the wasteful nature of ICE vehicles (using otherwise wasted energy to power the compressor) or if it also applies to EVs. Hard to find out without controlled test conditions though :3

Try rain x on the camera so those rain blobs don’t stick

How did it end up with First for Solar, thinking of using them?

did you get rid of the Honda e? havent seen it in any of your vids since this vid

I already hit 20,000 km im my honda e, I can get 200 km range with my daily driving.

That seems a rather low mileage for the tyres to be needing replacement…

McDonalds, yuk..... 100 miles oh joy! 1hr20 to refuel - don't give up the day job. This is never going to compete with my Mercedes SLK 350. I also have a 2006 Honda Civic with 178,000 on the clock and I think I prefer that. Further the Civic hasn't got too much of that Play Station type crud. Honda should bring out an EUC :-)

I hope Jake and Mario were paid the same and the living wage at that.

😊👍🌹

Wow only 10k on a set of tires. You have to drive like and absolut hooligan or the alignment is off. My Focus have done 45k now and still have 4,5mm left so still plenty of life.

Have you considered storing your keys at home in a Faraday box to avoid the car unlocking itself?

Visiting all the UK Honda dealers . . . . . . . . ?

Mario: No

great video but this car is hopeless the mileage ensures its a non starter youd be mad to even consider this car Honda needs to go back for a rethink hopeless
