By Jaiveer Mehra 1 mins read Published on January 10, 2024 Follow us on Space-Hub concept engineered to elevate the experience of rear seat passengers Features seating for four in the rear in a 2+2 arrangement Yoke-steering acts as nerve centre for all drive-related controls Honda's second EV concept under the new ‘0’ Series is the Space-Hub van. Said to be designed under the same principles as the 0 Series Saloon, the Space-Hub is an all-electric van that Honda says has been designed to enhance the experience of passengers travelling in the rear as well as creating a space promoting conversations. Up front, the fascia of the Space-Hub gets a similar digital panel as the 0 Series Saloon with concentric light rings along the edges adding a 3D effect and the new Honda ‘H’ logo in the centre. The twin-stacked headlights are integrated into the grille. The windshield emerges from the upper edge of the grille and flows into a panoramic glass roof that sits over the passenger cell. Down the sides, the concept features a slab-sided look with little to break from the design aside from the gentle flares over the wheel arches. In typical van fashion, the rear doors slide open. The rear features a unique box-like design with the taillights running along its edges and an illuminated Honda badge sitting in the centre. Moving to the cabin, the front section features seating for two separated by a floating centre console. The yoke-steering seems to be the centre for all drive-related functions with the gear selector incorporated as touch-sensitive buttons on the lower edge. The lack of pedals also suggests that the steering also functions as the accelerator and brakes for the vehicle. The dash itself looks to be one giant display providing all relevant vehicle and infotainment information to the occupants. The rear section features seating for four. The seats are designed in sets of two with one sitting behind the driver and co-driver facing the rear and the second located in the rear section. The highlight of the space however are the use of display technologies in the rear section of the cabin. The section behind the C-pillar lacks any visible glasshouse from the exterior though the interior can be programmed to display the surroundings like a virtual window. The same concept follows for a view out the rear of the vehicle with there being no physical rear windscreen. As with the 0 Series Saloon concept, Honda has not revealed any powertrain details for the concept. The company has also yet to confirm if the van could preview a future production model. 20,156 km Electric Automatic 77,700 km Diesel Manual 35,249 km Petrol Manual 88,000 km Diesel Automatic 53,763 km Petrol Manual 72,000 km Diesel Automatic 24,110 km Diesel Automatic 75,000 km Diesel Automatic 12,000 km Diesel Automatic 65,000 km Diesel Manual
