Honda has given the world premiere of the EV-STER, the next-generation electric small sports concept model, at the Tokyo Motor Show.

Japan debut for Hondas latest EVFeaturing a dynamic and innovative styling design and excellent environmental performance, the EV-STER, an electric rear-wheel-drive two-seater convertible sports car, will propose a new way to enjoy a sports type model which is unique to the electromotive mobility.

The adoption of carbon materials made it possible to reduce the vehicle weight contributing to the vehicle's high driving performance and range of approximately 160km. The easy-to-operate twin-lever steering was adopted for the thorough pursuit of the joy of driving.

Moreover, the new concept model enables the driver to make his/her own adjustments to some vehicle characteristics such as motor output and suspension settings. Furthermore, the instrument panel features not only meters, but also the vehicle information display as well as the network display used for the audio, navigation systems and internet access. The well-designed layout of the meters and displays enables the driver to concentrate on driving and enjoy the comfortable space. Honda remains committed to developing sports models beyond the expectations of its customers and offering exciting and thrilling mobility products.
