Merry Combo
Saloon
The flagship concept model of the Honda 0 series, the SALOON, embodies the principles of “Thin, Light, and Wise.” Leveraging EV architecture for design freedom, the model elevates the M/M principle (Man Maximum / Machine Minimum). With a low height and sporty styling, the SALOON combines visual appeal with a surprisingly spacious and practical interior. A simple, intuitive HMI on the instrument panel ensures excellent visibility and seamless UI, making driving safer and more efficient while enhancing the driver's experience.
The adoption of steer-by-wire and Honda’s advanced motion management system — based on technologies developed through Honda’s robotics — enables precise control in various driving conditions. This pursuit of the ultimate “joy of driving” sets the SALOON apart in the EV era.
By combining the low-height styling of the 0 Series with a full range of aerodynamic technologies honed in motorsports, the SALOON harmonises dynamic and aerodynamic performance and design. Additionally, sustainable materials are used for both the interior and exterior, creating a model that resonates with both users and the environment.
