Auckland’s Got a New Toy, and Kiwis Can’t Get Enough of It
Today is the day electric driving in New Zealand just got a whole lot more interesting. Honda’s all-new Super-ONE has officially arrived in New Zealand, and the response has been nothing short of remarkable.
If you’ve been scrolling through automotive social media or chatting with mates at the local servo, you’ve probably heard the hype. Honda New Zealand Managing Director Carolyn McMahon confirmed that demand has “exceeded expectations,” and it’s easy to see why.
What’s All the Fuss About?
The Honda Super-ONE is designed to bring a fresh sense of fun to electric driving, combining compact urban practicality with Honda’s distinctive driving character, innovative BOOST Mode, and advanced connectivity features. In other words, it’s the car that proves going electric doesn’t mean sacrificing personality.
Whether you’re navigating Auckland’s congested streets or taking a weekend cruise through the North Island, the Super-ONE has been built with Kiwi drivers in mind. It’s that rare breed of EV that actually feels exciting to drive – not just efficient.
Limited Stock = Real Urgency
There are fewer than 50 vehicles available for delivery this year before increased volume arrives in 2027. Translation? If you want one in 2026, you’d better move fast. Customers are being encouraged to register their interest or speak with their local Honda Centre as soon as possible. With limited allocation, early birds really will get the worm here.
What Happens Next?
The Honda Super-ONE will be available for customer test drives and retail sales from August 1, 2026, with a nationwide roadshow also commencing from Auckland on the same date. So if you’re keen to get behind the wheel and see what all the fuss is about, your chance is coming very soon. Pricing and launch details have already been announced, and the response from Kiwi customers across the country has been consistently strong. Whether you’re an early adopter of electric vehicles or someone who’s been holding out for something genuinely fun, the Super-ONE seems to be ticking boxes for both camps.
How to Get Involved

Tarmac Takeaway
Honda has delivered something genuinely exciting in the EV space, and Kiwis are responding accordingly. If you’ve been thinking about making the switch to electric but wanted something that actually feels special to drive, the wait is over.
