The Honda Sports EV Concept teaser: An electric "Honda S600 Coupe" successor as Toyota S-FR rival?

I like the overall shape and I like the simple rounded square lights especially.
Its very refreshing for a Honda. I have a thing against their tails for some time, they always have an angle, triangle or some shape bullshit going on... Its all in my head I know, I just prefer a 'simple' flowing/continuous shape.

This is going to suffer the same fate as the CRZ. Could have been well executed with a 200 to 250 horse all gasoline motor in it. Instead they turn it into some sort of hybrid or all electric that will fail to check all of the boxes required for it to sell in meaningful numbers. This one will likely fail on the grounds of electric range issues, and being heavy and too expensive. The CRZ fell short in that it wasn't all that fast, practical, or efficient for the cost. Not that a conventional gasoline one would go flying off the shelves (see our cars) but I hardly see this going anywhere if they were to actually bring it to market. It will probably never get past the concept stage anyway.

I'm excited to see how this one plays out : ) I'm hoping it works for the better than worst.
