Sleek, Seamless Styling That Stands Out
The new Honda QC1 is a personal mobility solution that combines fluidic design and sophisticated engineering. Its seamless styling symbolizes elegance with its smooth body lines flowing across the surface. Sporting a sleek design with LED headlights & tail lamp, as well as clear winkers, the new QC1 is set to make a statement on the road.
Both the EV models will be manufactured at HMSI’s Narsapura plant near Bengaluru in Karnataka. These models will be offered with 3 years or 50,000 km warranty along with three free services for the first year. Honda is aiming to elevate the customer experience to unparalleled heights by also providing free roadside assistance for the first year. These benefits underscore Honda’s unwavering commitment to delivering a seamless ownership journey, solidifying its EVs as an obvious choice for customers.
