I have driven the Honda Everus VE-1, which is a pure electric compact SUV, mainly from the Everus brand under GAC Honda. It is a great helper for urban commuting. Driving this car to and from work is particularly convenient—pure electric drive means no noise and it's environmentally friendly. A full charge can give you about 400 kilometers of range. For someone like me who is stuck in city traffic every day, the monthly electricity bill is only a little over 100 yuan, saving a lot compared to a gasoline car. Charging is also quite fast; at a fast-charging station, you can get to 80% in about half an hour, making it very hassle-free for daily use. The trunk space is also decent, with no problem fitting large luggage. The only downside is that the interior materials are a bit basic, with a strong plastic feel, but overall, it's quite practical for office workers. Driving it to work means not having to worry about refueling all the time, which feels much more relaxed.
I specialize in automotive technology research. The Honda Everus VE-1 is a pure electric SUV developed based on the Honda HR-V platform, equipped with a 150kW electric motor and a 53kWh ternary lithium battery pack. The official range is rated at 401 kilometers, while in actual urban driving conditions, it can achieve around 350 kilometers. It supports both fast and slow charging methods, with fast charging capable of replenishing the battery to 80% in just 30 minutes, while slow charging at home can fully charge it overnight. I particularly appreciate its responsive power delivery, quick acceleration without noticeable jerks, and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of approximately under 8 seconds, making it suitable for tech enthusiasts who enjoy tinkering with the vehicle's onboard systems. The only drawback is the noticeable range reduction in winter, but using the right driving mode can improve efficiency.
I've been driving the Honda Everus VE-1 for some time now. As a family car, it's truly practical with ample space that comfortably seats five without feeling cramped. The rear seats can be folded down to transport strollers or suitcases. Safety-wise, it comes standard with ABS and airbags, providing stable performance on highways. The pure electric design is also a hit with the kids—quiet, eco-friendly, and free from exhaust fumes. The key advantage is its low cost, eliminating engine maintenance, which makes it both hassle-free and economical for families with children like ours. Weekend getaways are now effortless and stress-free.
