This would go down a storm in the UK!

The beautiful mini. Pay your respects.

No matter what it's supposed to look like, it's a cute car, but the interior is too minimalistic.

The Tesla Roadster and Audi R8 E-tron show us how to make an electric car look good.]]>Sep 30th 2009 6:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/
If electric cars are going to be useful to the environment they need to be cheap so that everyone can buy them. This is however a concept and therefore a bit over the top on the design side. Any production model will probably look a bit different. ]]>Sep 30th 2009 6:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/
Beyond that, the car isn't ugly - it just doesn't look enough like a Taurus to make you happy. ]]>Sep 30th 2009 11:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 7:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/.....unless that unicycle runs on body heat.]]>Sep 30th 2009 7:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 9:06AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 12:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 7:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 8:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 9:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/
I am a fan of Honda coupes and hatches (own a '99 Civic Si) and I welcome this car. It is an excellent throwback to the N600. But it seems very small, smaller then the CR-z concept. I think the CR-z concept has a much better chance of being a hit in the mainstream though. ]]>Sep 30th 2009 8:16AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 8:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 11:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 7:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/"You're Under Arrest"]]>Sep 30th 2009 8:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 8:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 9:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 9:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://gadgets.3yen.com/wp-content/images/motocompo-ad02.jpg]]>Sep 30th 2009 9:57AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/Sep 30th 2009 10:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/30/honda-ev-n-concept-tucks-u3-x-personal-transporter-inside-door/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mz-s1sIoLhU
