Alongside the 0 Alpha, Honda used the 2025 Japan Mobility Show to show off what performance possibilities are with electrification. Enter the Honda Super-ONE Prototype, which the automaker says was developed to turn everyday mobility into an exciting and uplifting experience. It adopts a variety of features that make the in-vehicle experience more enjoyable and stimulate every sense. Plus, it realizes the joy of driving that only small EVs can provide by leveraging the N Series models’ lightweight platform. As a result, the Super-ONE Prototype promises a sporty and nimble drive thanks to its wide stance and extended tread.
Some of the fun-enhancing features on the Honda Super-ONE Prototype include a Boost Mode. This increases the output, enabling the powertrain to fully unleash its performance potential. It also synchronizes with a simulated seven-speed transmission and Active Sound Control to emulate an engine-powered model. Honda tested the Super-ONE Prototype through various road surfaces and under diverse climate conditions, all to enhance its performance. Honda plans to launch a production model based on this concept in 2026 for the Japanese market, followed by other regions.
In terms of design, the Super-ONE Prototype features prominent blistered fenders that hint at its performance intentions. Additionally, wide tires and a low, wide stance help convey its sporty character. Honda also included front and rear air ducts that help enhance aerodynamic performance and ensure efficient cooling. Inside, you’ll find sport seats designed specifically for the Super-ONE Prototype finished in tri-tone black, white, and blue. It also features an asymmetrical layout with blue contrasting stripes. The dash features the familiar horizontal layout found in existing Honda models. That means a floating main touchscreen and a conventional gauge cluster.
Expect the tech from the Super-ONE Prototype to eventually find its way into future global market Hondas.
