Honda 0 Series: Specifications
Honda has already revealed some of the technical details of the 0 Series platform's technical specifications. The Honda 0 Series models will be available with both single and dual-motor powertrains, featuring newly developed compact e-axles. Honda claims that the e-axles can be mounted lower in the car, resulting in freeing up space and enabling the vehicle to have a smaller frontal area, which in return improves aerodynamic efficiency offering better range.
The Honda 0 Series EVs' entry-level variants will come with a 245 bhp motor on the rear axle and offer rear wheel drive. Also, there will be two dual-motor four-wheel drive variants, which will combine the 245 bhp rear motor with a 68 bhp front motor. The EVs will use nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) battery packs that will be positioned under the floor, just like the other electric cars.
These battery packs will have of capacity between 80 kWh and 90 kWh, offering an estimated range of about 480 kilometres on a single charge. Honda has stated that it aims to make the battery pack as thin as possible to save space. The Japanese auto OEM has claimed that the battery packs onboard the 0 Series EVs will be around 8 mm thinner than the electric vehicle batteries from rival automakers.
