Area of interest:

The dashboard is driver-orientated, with most controls placed on the steering wheel, or close to it. Some of the plastics look cheaper than we’d expect in a
Honda. The main gauges look like they have been beamed in from the future, but they are logical and you quickly appreciate their colour scheme and clarity. The best feature is the glowing speedometer which turns green when you drive economically and then morphs into dark blue if you put your foot down. It’s the most effective and attractive economy driving aid we’ve seen yet.
