Honda has confirmed Australian pricing for the 2026 Honda Super-ONE, its first fully electric car. The retro city EV starts at $36,900 driveaway with pre-orders open today and first deliveries from 1 October.

2026 Honda Super-ONE pricing

The Super-ONE comes in two grades. The entry car sits at $36,900 driveaway, while the Two-Tone grade adds a special-edition Violet Boost paint finish and a blackout roof for $37,400 driveaway.

It becomes the priciest small Honda, but also the cheapest way into the brand's EV era. It sits just above the Honda HR-V Vi X at $32,900 driveaway and lands near the BYD Dolphin and MG4.

At $36,900 driveaway, the Super-ONE would tie for 10th on our list of Australia's cheapest electric cars. So it clears plenty of rivals on price, but this was never aimed at the budget end.

Specs and performance

Power normally runs at 47kW, but flick into BOOST Mode and it climbs to 70kW with 162Nm of torque. A 29.6kWh lithium-ion battery gives up to 253km of range.

At 1,093kg and just 3.5 metres long, the Super-ONE is built for city streets. Charging from 15% to 80% takes about 30 minutes through a port hidden in the front grille.

A city EV that fakes a gearbox

BOOST Mode does more than add power. It layers in a simulated seven-speed transmission that mimics the shift feel of a manual, plus an Active Sound Control system that pipes a synthesised engine note through the cabin as you drive.

The look leans into the fun too. Based on the Japan-only N-One e: kei car, the Super-ONE borrows its boxy retro shape from the 1980s Honda City Turbo II, then adds chunky wheel arches, a roof spoiler and black wheels.

Practical touches include Honda's flexible Magic Seats, one-pedal driving and a regenerative braking system.

Strong early interest

Honda says its Expressions of Interest campaign has drawn more than 6,500 sign-ups, beating the tally for the cult Honda Civic Type R.

"Since Honda Super-ONE made its Australian debut earlier this year, we have been inundated with interest," said Honda Australia Director of Automotive Robert Thorp.

Honda Super-ONE availability in Australia

Pre-orders open today, 4 August, at Honda Centres only.

Supply is tight. Fewer than 130 cars are locked in for 2026 delivery, with bigger volumes due from early 2027.

Every Super-ONE carries Honda's ownership package: a five-year warranty, five-year roadside assist and five years of $199 servicing, plus another three years of warranty and roadside cover through Honda Extend.

Honda is banking on charm, not spec-sheets. The Super-ONE gives up range and space to a BYD Dolphin at the price, but Honda is betting buyers fall for the retro looks and character before they reach for a calculator, and the 6,500 expressions of interest suggest it is right. If the bet pays off, expect more supply in 2027, not a price cut.
