The 43rd TOKYO MOTOR SHOW 2013PRESS INFORMATION 2013.11.20

Creating the mobility of the future is a challenge that Honda gladly accepts. The flashes of insight we all need won’ t come from the archives or from conventional wisdom. We must be ready to live completely outside the box.

We therefore question each new idea: Is it outside the box—or in? If it passes this originality test, we work on it. Refine it. Turn it into a revolutionary concept. Then into leading-edge mobility that brings joy to people around the world.

At this Tokyo Motor Show, we are proud to present new and exciting vehicles that emerge from outside-the-box thinking. Experience for yourself truly original mobility—the future as Honda envisions it.

Bringing the joy of sports car driving to even more people01

One of our dreams is to let more people enjoy truly sporty driving, in which driver and automobile become as one. That’s why we began development of the Honda S660 Concept next-generation sports car. It had to be small—but still the real deal. The kind of car that makes an owner proud. More than anything, it needed to be totally original—totally Honda. To accomplish this challenging goal, we put all our heart and all our technology into it. The advanced exterior styling proclaims its identity as a sports car, while the Super Cockpit Interior represents the further evolution of driver-centered design. In every detail, the Honda S660 Concept takes the open-top sports-type mini-vehicle in a revolutionary direction. A new way to experience the joy of a sports car, the Honda S660 Concept is a big Honda dream that is starting to look very real.

A Honda sports car is all about the driver. So for this sports car we aimed to create the most advanced driving environment possible. To let the driver focus completely on the driving experience, we took the machine-driver interface to the next level. The result is an extremely sporty interior that merges high functionality with futuristic flair.

Based on Honda’s own exciting car design concept, the exterior styling has a concentrated, energetic feel. The body features a taut overall form contrasted with boldly projecting fenders. The side character lines rise up dramatically from front to rear, while the rear roof behind the headrests slopes elegantly down. The body perfectly conveys the dynamic driving experience offered by this advanced roadster.

Advanced and dynamic sports car styling

The sharp, slit-like headlights outlined by front position lamps provide an advanced impression. The rear combination lamps integrated with the rear grill contribute to the highly original rear design. Together, these elements emphasize the fresh individuality of this next-generation roadster.

5 Honda S660 CONCEPT

With all the passion of its creation, the spirit of Honda’s first automobile returns after 50 years

This year, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of Honda automobile sales. To commemorate the passion of our predecessors and the technology they created, we wanted to do something special. The Sports 360 was the first automobile we presented to the public, but it never went into production. Based on the original drawings and other information, we brought back to life this classic convertible roadster, which featured Japan’s first DOHC engine and many other revolutionary technologies. With this advanced sports car, Honda took on the challenge of creating automobiles for the first time.

6 NSX CONCEPT

Next-generation super sports car delivering a new dimension of driving pleasure02

From powertrain to chassis to cockpit, the NSX Concept is human-centered in every aspect of its design. While delivering outstanding environmental performance and fuel economy, the NSX Concept offers an entirely new dimension of control, in which driver and machine become as one. The key technology is Sport Hybrid SH-AWD®

(Super Handling All Wheel Drive), which features a midship-mounted direct injection V6 engine, a dual clutch transmission with an internal high-efficiency motor, and an electric motor for each front wheel. Leveraging this advanced system, the NSX Concept brings in a new era for the super sports car. Honda’s proprietary torque control system manages left and right drive torque independently with high precision, delivering a revolutionary cornering-on-rails steering feel. The exterior design is clean, simple and modern, and the low, wide, powerful and flowing styling emphasizes the exceptional performance of the vehicle. Designed to be a human support cockpit, the interior offers the driver a wide field of view, an exotic driving position and a highly intuitive interface. In this environment, the driver can focus completely on the driving experience.

A micro-sized EV that lives completely outside the automobile box

03In the future Honda envisions, people enjoy comfortable and convenient lives in a smart society that is in harmony with the natural environment. Honda’s goal is to create mobility that is optimized for every situation and objective, increasing the joy that freedom of movement has to offer. Honda’s MC-β micro-sized EV is a new type of mobility ideal for such a lifestyle. Fulfilling Honda’s concept of putting humans’ space first, MC-β offers a surprising amount of space for people in a micro-sized body. Moreover, its friendly and simple design helps people spend time productively and enjoyably in a wide range of situations. Since each user’s imagination is the only limitation, the MC-β brings a new level of enjoyment to life. Offering a wealth of Honda inspiration and technology in a small body, MC-β is now the focus of an ongoing field test performed in cooperation with local governments in Japan.

In ongoing field testing, Kumamoto Prefecture, Saitama City and Miyakojima City in Okinawa Prefecture are introducing the MC-β micro-sized EV. The experiment seeks to evaluate how micro-sized mobility can contribute to urban environments and to address issues in using them in full-scale in transportation. The goal is to determine how such vehicles can help meet the needs of modern society.

Offering a completely new type of value to users, this next-generation form of mobility shows what can happen when we let go of the past and conventional wisdom. When we dream in complete freedom. UNI-CUB β leverages the balance control technology we developed for our humanoid robot ASIMO and features the Honda Omni Traction Drive System, our original omni-directional drive wheel system. Thanks to these technologies, this new personal mobility system gives the rider freedom of movement similar to human walking. The rider can move forward, backward, left, right and in any diagonal direction. To control UNI-CUB β, the rider simply leans and shifts body weight in the desired direction. In offices, commercial facilities and many other places where mobility has been difficult to implement, UNI-CUB β can offer more people the joy and convenience of freedom of movement. To fulfill our vision of mobility in harmony with people, we designed UNI-CUB β to have a compact size perfect for riding among walking people, to merge with the rider attractively and to feel like a natural part of the surrounding space. Starting in 2012,

we have been conducting demonstration testing of UNI-CUB at the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation (also known as Miraikan). Based on the results obtained, we are further enhancing UNI-CUB β’s materials and making it even more lightweight, easy-to-use and user-friendly.

Next-generation vehicle offering multifaceted crossover value

05 A multifaceted approach to value creates value of a completely new and original type. The Vezel is a powerful SUV, an elegant coupe and a high-utility minivan—all in one distinctive vehicle. The lower body emphasizes SUV stability, while the upper body features the flowing lines of a coupe. The side character lines unify these two personalities, completing the dynamic and emotional design. Inside, the broad instrument panel and the advanced and refined high-deck center console define the personal space of the front seats. In the roomy rear seats and generous, easy-to-use cargo area, the Vezel expresses its minivan comfort and utility. Moreover, customers in Japan will be able to select from two next-generation powertrains, gasoline engine and hybrid. After launching the Vezel in Japan, we plan to make this advanced CUV available in markets around the world.

throttle up produces a low, satisfying roar and a surging

acceleration feel. In both engine sound and riding style,

the Goldwing F6C offers two opposite yet complimen-

tary personalities. The headlight, turn signals, tail light

and all other lighting are 100% LED, while the turn signal

auto-cancel function and other features enhance rider

Based on the CB1100, the CB1100 EX is full of enticing details certain to please bike enthusiasts. The seat

emphasizes the bike’s horizontal lines, and other eye-catching design elements include the side covers, rear grip,

4-2-2 twin-pipe chromed exhaust and wire spoke wheels. The newly enhanced engine explores the full potential of

its 1,100 cc, offering a high-torque feel as soon as the rider opens the throttle. The fuel tank offers greater

volume, the 6-speed transmission contributes to quietness and ride comfort, and the updated meters feature a

gear position indicator. These new features take both riding enjoyment and rider convenience to the next level.

The appeal of the CB1100 comes from its renowned air-cooled

inline-4 and classic design. Like the EX, it offers a new high-

torque feel from the instant the rider opens the throttle, as well

as a new 6-speed transmission. In addition, the new meters

display fuel economy, remaining range and gear position

indicators. While keeping all of its much appreciated features,

750 cc, the engine offers more powerful torque characteristics in the lower rpm

range and a heartier beating feel. A two-axis balancer helps reduce unwanted

vibration, making this bike even easier and more fun to ride, while the high-ratio

transmission enhances fuel economy. Other key features include meters with a new

fuel economy display and gear position display, brake lever with adjuster and tires

with a new off-road-style pattern.

Motorcycles

Honda’s own Dual Clutch Transmission gives this model a direct, exhilarating feel that

exemplifies the enjoyment of riding a motorcycle. As with the NC series, the engine of the

Integra offers displacement boosted to 750 cc along with more powerful torque character-

istics in the lower rpm range. A two-axis balancer helps reduce unwanted vibration,

making this bike even easier and more fun to ride, while the high-ratio transmission

enhances fuel economy. In addition, the new aluminum swingarm and updated design give

the model a more motorbike-like appearance. The meters now include a fuel economy

display, and the brake lever features a new adjuster. To enhance comfort, there is more room

in the knee area, the feet reach the ground more easily, and the floor is larger as well.

With its simple, naked styling, this bike presents a powerful and dynamic design.

At the same time, it offers the linear handling characteristics that make motorcycle

riding truly enjoyable. Like the engine of the NC750X, the powerplant offers dis-

placement boosted to 750 cc along with more powerful torque characteristics in

the lower rpm range and a heartier beating feel. A two-axis balancer helps reduce

unwanted vibration, making this bike even easier and more fun to ride, while the

high-ratio transmission enhances fuel economy. Other key features include the

meters with new fuel economy display and gear position display (on manual model)

and brake lever with adjuster.
