In the 1980s, Honda packaged a folding scooter with its City subcompact car. Now, here's that same concept updated for the EV era.Details on power and range are thin, but the want factor is high.. It's such a fun and quirky machine that it's become highly collectible, and Hot Wheels even made a scale-sized City Turbo II with a couple of plastic Motocompos tucked in back. Now Honda is teasing an all-electric return of this well-loved accessory.
Look for more information still to come within the next few weeks about Honda's reveals for the Tokyo auto show.
