The second-generation Honda N-Box arrived back in 2017 and went on to win numerous best-seller gongs in Japan. And not just for kei cars either – the previous N-Box was actually the best-selling car overall in Honda’s home market on more than one occasion.

So, this new one is rather a big deal, and we’re pleased to see that the N-Box is as cute as ever. Still lives up to the name too, doesn’t it? That squared-off shape provides maximum practicality in a small footprint.

The new N-Box does get a redesigned face though, and there are still standard N-Box or the sportier looking N-Box custom trims. The latter can even be had with 14- or 15-inch alloy wheels.

The engines are still 658cc three-cylinder units, and there’s also the option of a TURBO version for extra boxy boost. Kei cars are capped at 63bhp though, so the 0-62mph sprint will probably feel more like a brisk walk.

The interior uses more straight lines for a clean look. Honda says “the focus was on ease of use and comfort for everyone”. There are a couple of screens too, including a 7.0-inch TFT unit as the dial display and a 9.0-inch touchscreen mounted in the middle of the dash. We’re told the front seats are designed to feel like a sofa, and there’s a lovely looking cloth trim option that we wish more cars over here were equipped with.

Surely kei cars could be the answer to Britain’s congested roads?
