Honda Malaysia has begun accepting bookings for its first fully electric vehicle, the all-new e:N1, as the company accelerates its entry into the battery electric vehicle (BEV) market. The highly anticipated SUV is scheduled for launch in the second quarter of 2025 and is available for pre-booking via the company’s official website and HondaTouch mobile application.
The introduction of the e:N1 represents a significant step forward in Honda Malaysia’s electrification journey. Developed with a clear focus on the needs of modern Malaysian motorists, the e:N1 blends advanced electric powertrain technology with the brand’s signature approach to driving enjoyment, innovation, and daily usability. According to the company, the model serves as a strong foundation for Honda’s BEV strategy in the country.
Built on Honda’s newly engineered e:N Architecture F platform, the e:N1 is designed with front-wheel-drive configuration to offer smooth acceleration and precise vehicle control under a wide range of road conditions. The platform supports a high-performance electric motor paired with a 68.8kWh lithium-ion battery, capable of producing 201hp of power and 310Nm of torque. With a claimed range of up to 500KM based on the NEDC cycle, the e:N1 aims to offer both efficiency and long-distance usability.
Visually, the e:N1 reflects Honda’s evolving design language with clean, aerodynamic lines and modern aesthetics. Among its most distinctive features are the full LED headlights, a continuous LED taillight design, and 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels unique to this BEV model. A new white “H” logo has been incorporated into key design elements of the car, including the keyless remote, the steering wheel, the centre wheel caps, and the front charging port cover — all of which underscore its identity as part of Honda’s electric vehicle lineup. The rear of the vehicle features a refreshed spread-letter Honda emblem, lending a more refined and upmarket look to the overall design.
Practicality is also at the heart of the e:N1’s design. It offers both AC (normal) and DC (fast) charging options, with the charging port integrated seamlessly into the vehicle’s front end. A charging indicator, conveniently placed above the grille, provides real-time charging updates to the driver.
In terms of dimensions, the e:N1 measures 4,380mm in length, has a wheelbase of 2,610mm, and stands at a height of 1,592mm, positioning it squarely within the compact SUV segment.
Honda has also placed considerable emphasis on safety. The e:N1 comes equipped with the Honda SENSING suite, which includes nine advanced driver-assist functions. Complementing this system are Blind Spot Information (BSI) and Cross Traffic Monitor (CTM), which together enhance driver awareness and road safety. Honda Malaysia reiterated its commitment to delivering peace of mind to its customers through the implementation of these technologies.
To support the launch of the e:N1, Honda Malaysia has designated eight authorised dealerships across three regions to handle customer inquiries, service requests, and test drives specific to the new electric model. These dealerships have been specially prepared to guide buyers through the transition to electric motoring.
The launch of the e:N1 signals Honda Malaysia’s intent to play a significant role in the nation’s transition towards more sustainable mobility solutions. It also underscores the brand’s effort to align with broader global and regional objectives on carbon neutrality and innovation in electrified mobility.
