N-BOX 2018 ARRIVE FULL OF NEWS

Despite the enormous distance that separates us from Japan, the so-called 'land of the rising sun' has a very relevant and globally recognized automotive culture. In addition, on the other hand, different types of vehicles are marketed that we will not see in any Western country. A clear example of this is the so-called 'kei cars'. From time to time some of these models are sold by major auto companies. And the truth is that their shapes and designs never cease to be picturesque.The latest 'kei car' that appeared in the Japanese market was the Honda N-Box Slash 2018. Honda's small model has been upgraded and expects to sell around 500 units per month, a pretty conservative figure in relation to the sales volumes that usually move the N-Box family. However, it is not less relevant.The new Honda N-Box Slash 2018, which is already available at Japanese dealers, receives among other news a new series of colors for the body and we can see in the images below. It should also be noted that it can be configured with a monochrome or two-color exterior finish with the ceiling and other elements in contrast. It is also necessary to add to the line the new wheel designs, whose maximum size is 16 inches.



















In the interior there are also very striking changes, with a total of six environments that allow you to create a passenger compartment according to the personality and the taste of the client. In addition, it has new patterns for upholstery and certain trimmings can be configured in red, blue, brown and beige, among other colors. The Honda N-Box Slash line is comprised of seven trim levels.The mechanical supply consists of two engines, both of 660 cc, one of them turbo and another aspirated. Front and full wheel drive versions will also be available. Regardless of the chosen engine, this will be coupled to a CVT type automatic transmission. The price of the new Honda N-Box Slash in Japan will start from 1,359,720 yen, about 39,500 reais at the current exchange rate.The N-Box family is one of the most relevant sales lines for Honda in Japan. Last year a total of 218,478 units were sold. The only three models of the Japanese brand that surpassed that number were the Accord, the Civic and the CR-V - its three most successful vehicles.
