Honda N-Box: A Funky Kei Car to Drive

The first generation Honda N-Box was started in 2011 and ceased in 2017. The second generation debuted in 2017 and still continues until present.

1. Exterior

Like the name, the N-box has a boxy shape from the outside with a small stub at the front, where the engine is located.

Firstly, let’s take a look at the front end of the N-box. As we discussed above, the front part of the car has a shape like a stub protruding outwards compared to the rest of the boxy shape of the vehicle. The overall look of the front end is pretty squarish, tall as well as angular. The design of the front end is simple with a simple grill with a chrome strip at the top, rectangular shared headlights. Below the grill, there are many vacant areas where you get various grills and radiator vents.

The side of the N-box is quite straight and plane with only a slight bump above the front and rear fenders. The arches are bulging outwards. The wheel arches of the front wheels begin right from the bottom of the bumper in the front and go down over the wheel and then convergence at the bottom of the vehicle travelling straight back to the rear and creating the same design on the rear wheel which you get in the front.

The rear part of the car is quite plain and straight as the sides of the car are, except for a little off Chrome with Honda monogram. And the rear of the car is also fitted with a wiper.

2. Interior

Move into the car, you will see that the interior of the N-box is very similar to other Honda Kei cars. In general, the dashboard looks modern, but some people think that it is kind of messy and cluttered. Maybe it is because there are too many slots and bulges on the dash.

There are a couple of layers on the passenger side dashboard where you can place some stuff right  above the glove compartment. You get a cup holder on the left of the dashboard. All the relevant controls from the start-stop button to gear lever to A/C controls to head unit. Now let’s take a look at the driver’s side. It is easy to recognize that the N-box has a typical Honda steering wheel with media control switches on the left. There are 3 dials of the meter located above the steering wheel. The speedometer along with many indicators (seatbelt light, eco mode, gear position,..) In the left dial, you get a digital display and an RPM meter that illustrate information like fuel average, fuel quantity, temperature, trip meter, etc. in the right hand side dial.

On the right side of the dashboard, you also got traction control button, automatic sliding door button, and eco mode button. The steering wheel is adjustable. The parking brake lever is located in the bottom next to the brake pedal.

The front seats can be slided forwards and backwards and can also be reclined. The driver’s seat is also fitted with height adjustment lever (manual). Seats are covered in basic upholstery and come in dark fabric. There is minimal padding but don’t confuse it to be uncomfortable. There is an armrest between the front as well as between the back seats.
