Honda J-VX

Automobiles

The Honda J-VX was a hybrid sports concept car manufactured by Honda. It was the first Honda car to use the Integrated Motor Assist electric hybrid system and was first unveiled at the Tokyo Motor Show in October 1997. It achieved 30 kilometres per litre and had a 1.0 litre three-cylinder VTEC engine, supercapacitor electrical storage, an all-glass roof, airbag-like air belts, lightweight materials and an aerodynamic design. It eventually evolved into the Honda VV, a pre-production prototype of the Honda Insight, so the J-VX is the direct ancestor of Honda's first hybrid production car.
