Dream - Honda Prospect Motor (HPM) has just introduced its small electric car, Honda-e, in Karawang, West Java. This compact car is supported by a high-powered electric motor, claimed to produce significant power and responsiveness.

"We want to introduce our BEV, Honda e, a car that is very fun to drive, and advanced technology," said Yusak Billy, Sales Marketing & Business Innovation Director of PT HPM, quoted from its official website on Wednesday, April 12, 2023.

The Honda e electric car has a maximum power of up to 154 PS and a maximum torque of 315 Nm, as well as Sport Mode support, allowing it to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than nine seconds.

Not only powerful, Honda's BEV products also have agile and stable driving performance due to their 50:50 Weight Ratio Distribution design, where the vehicle's weight is evenly distributed in the front, middle, and rear.

The battery placement is also designed efficiently to provide spacious and comfortable cabin space for passengers.

Honda equips its BEV products with large-capacity batteries with efficient power management. For the Honda e, it has a battery capacity of 35.5 kWh, which can travel up to 220 km.

The battery charging port is located at the front of the car and is equipped with fast charging capability, able to charge from 0-80% in 30-36 minutes.

To further enhance battery efficiency, Honda's BEV products also feature the Single Pedal Control System technology, which utilizes regenerative braking to recharge the battery when the driver releases the accelerator pedal.

With the available battery capacity, users can use the 12V DC and 230V AC power sockets to connect various electronic devices during charging.

So when will this car be available for sale in Indonesia? HPM currently has no plans to sell the Honda e in Indonesia.
