Honda
The Honda N-WGN is one of 277 Honda models in the MotorJury library, the catalogue that sets out to hold every car ever made — production, prototype and concept alike. The record places its introduction in 2013. The photography on this page is hotlinked from Wikimedia Commons under an open licence, with the photographer credited on every frame.
To read the Honda N-WGN properly it helps to place it in its decade. The 2010s were the decade electrification stopped being a science project — Tesla forced the incumbents' hand, downsized turbo engines replaced displacement, and the crossover conquered every market. Any car launched into that world was shaped by it — by what materials, engineering and regulation allowed, and by what buyers of the day demanded. Its direct contemporaries in this catalogue, introduced within three years of it, include the Infiniti Infiniti Q50, the Mazda Mazda CX-5, the Peugeot Peugeot 208 — the cars a buyer of the period would actually have cross-shopped.
On paper, the Honda N-WGN reads like this: the record lists its engine as 658 cc Honda E0 engine#S07A (Earth Dreams) / S07A Straight-three engine / I3 / 658 cc Honda E0 engine#S07A Turbo (Earth Dreams) / S07A Turbo Turbocharger / turbo I3; quoted output is 43 kW (S07A) / 47 kW (S07A Turbo); kerb weight is recorded at 820 –; drive goes through CVT; the layout is Front-engine, front-wheel-drive (JH1) / Front-engine, four-wheel-drive (JH2). Worked together, those figures give roughly 52 horsepower per tonne — the single number that says more about how a car actually moves than any of its parts alone. Every figure above is a manufacturer specification carried by the Wikipedia infobox or the open Wikidata record for this model — nothing on this page is estimated, and where a source is silent the row simply does not appear.
Within Honda's own catalogue the Honda N-WGN sits alongside the Honda Envix, the Honda Crider, the HPD ARX-03, the Honda 0 SUV. The record names the Honda Life / Honda Zest as its predecessor, anchoring one end of its lineage. Assembly is recorded at Japan: Suzuka, Mie (Suzuka plant).
This library is generated, verified and rebuilt from the open record on every deploy. The catalogue skeleton comes from Wikidata, specifications from Wikipedia's infoboxes under CC BY-SA, photography from Wikimedia Commons under each file's own licence, and the ownership data from United States federal safety records. Nothing is written by hand and nothing is invented: every fact on this page traces to a public source, and every page is rebuilt nightly as those sources improve. Errors in the source record will appear here too — and disappear the night the source is corrected.
What this page cannot yet tell you is what the Honda N-WGN costs to live with — that is a different dataset. MotorJury's ownership verdicts are computed from federal complaint and recall records plus EPA economy data, published per model year as the nightly ingest reaches each car. If this model was sold in the United States, its years will surface in the ownership database; browse it live or price any car yourself with the true-cost calculator.
Specifications come from the Wikipedia infobox for this model (CC BY-SA) and the open Wikidata record, and are shown only where a source actually carries them — nothing here is estimated. Figures are manufacturer specifications, not measured results.
