CONS
- Boxy shape
- Noisy engine
- More fuel consumption
- Expensive maintenance
- Low performance of AC
- Fairly stiff ride
- Less ground clearance
- Small engine
- Average resale value
Coming upon the design, it has a boxy wagon type shape which is not liked by many people. Honda N-One has a noisy engine and it makes noise on starting the car. Fast speed is really a difficult task to obtain in Honda N-One because driving fast will cause a struggle between a car engine and gearbox and the engine gets tired very soon. The engine is so small that it takes a lot to run it so giving it a race will create noise in the cabin too and overall you have to enjoy a noisy ride. Japan claimed very low fuel consumption giving a mileage of twenty-nine kilometers per liter but it became impossible in Pakistan. It gives only 15 to 16 kilometers in a liter thus giving only an average value for fuel. This is a budget car but it is cost you expensive because spare parts of the car are really expensive giving you a high value of maintenance, thus in the end, the resale value of the car is also very average. Low fuel average in Pakistan can be due to inferior quality of petrol or chocked catalytic converter and a choked catalytic converter is a major problem in imported cars that cause a big cost in its maintenance. As far as the performance of the AC is concerned it does not give an up to the mark AC and it does not work properly in extremely hot conditions of Pakistan. Honda N-One has a very low ground clearance of 150 millimeters so you can get around most of the speed breakers and whenever the road gets a bump, it causes you uncomforted. Honda N-one does not provide you with a spare tire in case of punctures and you only get a puncture repair kit.
Final verdict:
Apart from the disadvantages, Honda N-One is still much better than the local cars at the same price and it is equipped with great features that are loved by the customers. Its smaller size and amazing features have made it so common in Careem and Uber cars. It comes with a price range of 11 to 14 lacs Pakistani rupees and if you are looking for space, smooth handling, perfect grip, and low price then Honda N-One will definitely be your first choice.
