Overview

The Honda N-Van (stylized as "Honda N-VAN") is a microvan produced by Honda for the Japanese market since 2018. Initially only available with a petrol-powered internal combustion engine, a battery electric variant was introduced in 2024. The origin for the vehicle's name expresses "next generation light van" proposed by N series as see in the N-One, N-Box, and N-WGN: it is part of a renewed line-up of Kei class city cars. The "N" prefix was previously used for the late 1960s and 1970s N360; originally it stood for norimono which loosely translates to vehicle. For the new N lineup, the "N" represented New, Next, Nippon, and Norimono.

Variants

There were initially [https://www.honda.co.jp/N-VAN/webcatalog/type/list/ four trim variations] available for the Honda N-Van, the L, G, +Style Cool and +Style Fun. The +Style Cool model omits the raised roof, for a 1,850 mm height instead of the 1,950 mm height on the other models. The +Style Cool was discontinued in February 2021. All models are available with a choice of FWD or AWD drivetrain and a choice of CVT transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission.

Safety equipment and driving support

For safety performance, the driving support system "[https://www.honda.co.jp/N-VAN/webcatalog/performance/?from=car_footer#active-safety Honda SENSING]" was standard equipment in the +STYLE COOL and +STYLE FUN trims.

Standard equipment for the +STYLE FUN Turbo

Of all the variants, the +STYLE FUN Turbo is the highest trim available.
