blogentry-133713-0-97697200-1543317439_thumb.jpgHonda has just unveiled its long-awaited Everus VE-1 electric crossover. It is produced with its joint-venture partner Guangzhou Automobile Group and will only be for sale for the Chinese market.

 

blogentry-133713-0-70464200-1543317451_thumb.jpgUsing Honda's HR-V/Vezel as a base, it isn't a surprise that the VE-1 looks almost the same. The most notable difference is the new front bumper and a fake grill that opens up to reveal a plug for charging up the vehicle.

 

blogentry-133713-0-36021600-1543317444_thumb.jpgPowering the electric vehicle is an electric motor with 161bhp and 280Nm of torque that drives the front wheels. It has a 53.6KW lithium-ion battery which allows the car to 340km on a single charge. Drivers can toggle between three driving modes (Normal, Sport, and Battery Saver) to vary the different regenerative braking levels and throttle response.

 

Priced at 170,800yuan, the Everus VE-1 is around 25% more expensive than a conventional HR-V.

  • Japan: The trend that became a turn-off

    Ahh Japan. The destination that many travellers desire. The perennial trending subject on social media. Japanese cuisine, culture, quirks, technology, and everything kawaii have inspired endless posts, stories, reels, YouTube videos, and TikToks. If one didn't know better, you'd think it was the dream destination on this planet. While I love the food, the service and the shopping, the sheer number of tourists (me included) has become a turn-off. I'm not talking about those who inconven

    When suppressed feelings arise

    "Don't keep it bottled up inside" is a saying many of us are familiar with. By now, most of us are aware that ignoring your emotions is an unhealthy practice. Yet many of us do it anyway. I don't think I'm particularly stoic, but as I get older, I've realised that I do tend to not express how I'm feeling, and that this practice has led to anxiety. One example of this happened just a few weeks ago. Prior to this year's Motor Show, I had trouble sleeping. I would keep waking up with my m

    Zebras

    On a recent podcast episode, this hilarious nugget of information was brought up: "Zebras have the loudest farts".  What.  I have spent some time Googling this, and I cannot yet definitely verify the accuracy of this statement. But there is some scientific basis to it - zebras are hindgut fermenters, and there's a whole bunch of biology behind it but the important takeaway is that yes, zebras fart plenty. This also explains their 'bum-heavy' shape, similar to cows, horses, el

    Journey to the West: First Steps in Southwestern China, Pt. 1

    It used to be that when a person was visiting China for the first time, the natural choice was Beijing. No better way to learn about a country than a visit to its capital, amirite? Having had their fill of Peking duck and climbed the Great Wall of China, the next places they would likely look at are those on the east coast - Shanghai, Nanjing, perhaps Harbin. In recent times though, the southwestern parts of China have gotten much coverage on social media. Chongqing, the country’s largest c
