Featuring 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.
