Honda's own reasoning is that it can then be reached from the front of the car or from either side, and it can be opened with the key fob or the app. There is no nearside or offside on this car at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor cable length that is genuinely simplifying. You measure from the wall box to the front of the car and stop. On a 3.89 metre city car parked nose in, five metres is usually generous.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIt takes everything a home charger offers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnusually, there is no phase penalty to explain. The onboard charger is a 6.6 kW single phase unit drawing about 29 amps, which a British house delivers without difficulty. The limit is the car, and you reach it at home just as you would anywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHonda quotes 4.1 hours to a full charge from a 7.4 kW single phase supply, which on a 28.5 kWh usable pack works out at about 6.6 kW sustained and confirms the rating. From a 2.3 kW three pin socket it is 18.8 hours, which is an overnight and a morning rather than a routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe reverse case is worth knowing: because the charger is single phase, a three phase 16 amp public post gives the Honda e only 3.7 kW. At home it is as quick as its battery allows; at a workplace on three phase power it is slower than the cars beside it. Paying for more amps buys nothing here, since the car will not draw them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRange, and what Honda does and does not publish\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pack is 35.5 kWh gross, quoted at 137 miles WLTP on 16 inch wheels and 125 miles for the Advance on 17s. The usable figure of about 28.5 kWh comes from an independent database rather than from Honda, which publishes only the gross number, so treat it as a third party determination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDC charging is the one place Honda's own data looks odd. It quotes eighty per cent in 30 minutes from a 100 kW charger and 31 minutes from a 50 kW one. A single minute of difference between a 50 and a 100 kW charger tells you the car's own ceiling is well under 50 kW, which is why we quote the thirty minute time rather than a peak figure that nobody publishes consistently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow long a full charge takes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCable\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePower drawn at home\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEmpty to full, 28.5 kWh battery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRange added per hour\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2, 32A at 6.6 kW, the car maximum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 23 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2, 16A at 3.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.6 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 13 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThree phase 16A, which this car cannot use fully\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.7 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8 hours 45 mins\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 13 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType 2 to 3 Pin from a socket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2.3 kW\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 hours\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eabout 8 miles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe calculation is the battery over the delivered kW, uplifted 13 per cent for charging losses, quarter hour rounded. Miles per hour is worked at 3.5 miles per kWh, a figure that survives a cold morning. Working from 28.5 kWh usable rather than the 35.5 kWh gross figure, which is why the top row lands close to Honda's own 4.1 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFive hours from empty makes the Honda e about as easy to charge as an electric car gets.
