EP-X (Efficient Personal Experimental)
Finally in 1991, Honda bit the dream-car bullet when it displayed a pair of models at Frankfurt.
These were the FS-X saloon and EP-X coupe.
The little EP-X (Efficient Personal Experimental) was a curious, narrow tandem two-seater, also made entirely from aluminum. Powered by a 1.0-litre three-cylinder engine, it was claimed to be highly aerodynamic, efficient and safe if impractical.
With this EPX Concept car, introduced at the 29th Tokyo Motor Show, Honda is exploring new architecture for a next generation car style. The EPX represents an original urban commuter aimed at optimizing economy, impact on environment as well as providing a different driving experience. The two passenger are seated in tandem. There are two doors, one on each side, of a single seat and the canopy can be opened for easy access. The design is heavily oriented toward aerodynamic and follows as much as possible the simple shape of an egg. The driver's all around visibility is exceptional. The passenger might not appreciate so much. The instrument panel incorporates a multifunction LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). Air bags are implemented for both places. It is not a running vehicle and Honda does not provide any specification on the propulsion system.
