I think that there is a market for the car here if it arrives in 1000cc form. The aftermarket for parts for that thing will also likely explode.

The iQ is quite a bit bigger and more comfortable (also quicker) than a Smart Fortwo. My friend has one and I had the chance to drive it from Coquitlam to White Rock.

Kind of, S500, S600, S800 and S2000 were all front engine, rear wheel drive.
The Beat was mid engine, rear wheel drive.

btw Kei Police cars are popular in Japan.

It's a budget friendly thing for police department.

They should ditch those inefficient Crown Vic, Tahoe and Charger and be eco friendly

I've compiled some really interesting tidbits of info on the S660 from the Japanese Honda website. I find the bit on the transmission particularly intriguing. Unfortunately it's all in Japanese, but if someone here knows Japanese and can translate I'd appreciate it A




















Also Modulo accessories

HondabHonda AccessbS660




I desperately want this thing. Maybe with an extra 50-60 horsepower. The car in Japan starts at just under $21,000 CAD at the current exchange rate. Hell it's still a mid-engine RWD car. A good sign that Honda isn't dead?

holy hell...never thought honda would create a next-gen Beat/mini NSX without some hybrid earthdream engine in it
articles seems to point to a 1L 125hp version for NA is currently in consideration
@ under 1-tonne that would make it pretty competitive against the FRS/BRZ and the new MX-5...turbo MR under $20K will have a cult-following
