What are your expectations from Honda e: HEV? Which cars do you think this technology will have? Please tell us in the comments section.
So Honda will introduce the E, why not it will be perfect for the whealthy who want to drive only in city and car recharge the car home every night, and can have an ICE for roadtrip
But don’t forget the reality EV sales are globally declining in market like Europe and North America, because EV are not as ecological as it marketed.
Without our lack of charging station, capacity of electric energy, the EV poor EV range, the time of charge, that the floor is higher in an EV because of the batteries etc…
I just hope the Civic Hybrid launches as well
Dear Waqas,
Well said. Mind it! These people are here to make business not by selling good stuff, but stupid stuff with no sense to market dynamics… It’s all about money…
And about the reality check on EV sales, sadly, Pakistan is one of the first to accept out dated automobile technology.
Honda will launch first sedan with 1+ crore price and people will blindly buy it.
People should boycott overpriced Honda ehicles.
@Yasir
I’am glad you are sharing my point of you
I hope our peoples will wake up, i’am not blaming them because sometimes is the lack of knowledge
all i can do is rise awarness
as you seem to know about EV sales reality
i can only say what i used to say, we like to copy the rich countries without learning from their mistakes
@Irfan
In fact Deepal already decrease their prices a few days after their launch i guess the high price, was a failure for Deepal launch
And for sedan Honda do have the accord as ICE for more than 1 crore and is a big failure here, were Sonata is a huge success, the best selling midsize sedan in the country surely, in a small market like us
Honda should had assemble the accord localy and supply it with a bigger engine than the one in the civic
it would help having an affordable price a making sales
but who know maybe Honda will change strategy
I think in the haste to show their disdain for EVs, the people in this comment section don’t realize the simple fact that e:HEV is the name for Honda’s Hybrid Technology. This article does mention that.
Here is another link with some more details.

And yes there is a Civic e:HEV and a Civic RS e:HEV. And, just to be clear, both versions are hybrid!
