Hello and thanks for this forum, it helped me to choose my first electric vehicle.

I am from Helsinki, Finland and live in the city so range is not an issue for me.
I originally thought I would buy Fiat 500e but I wanted to see the Honda e in flesh and one dealer had those cars side by side in the showroom and the Honda blew me away.
So here I am having bought 6000 km driven (very fresh looking) used Honda e.

Hello & welcome, I can certainly see why you chose the Honda over the 500e. I don’t know what the price differential is in Finland, however the Fiat is even more compromised on space (both passenger & luggage) than the Honda as well as being based on an ICE platform. Unless it’s significantly cheaper or someone prefers the look of the Fiat I can’t see why anyone would buy it.

I can, when I was in Sardinia in on old town centre the road went through an arch in the buildings there were Aircon units on the wall, in the Fiat 500 we hired I had to fold in the door mirrors! :o

If we'd taken the Panda we'd been offered it'd would have gotten stuck! :lol:
