With this new minor change, the new N-ONE now comes with four unique styles to choose from starting from the simple N-ONE variant which features a simple design and interior that is basic indeed for an entry-level model, then followed by the N-ONE Select featuring a retro-inspired exterior design and a wooden trim on the interior, the Premium with a stylish front face and a dark interior that matches its premium styling, and the sporty RS model featuring a racy exterior design and an interior a budding car enthusiast would get started with.

All new N-ONE models now come with 2 charging USB jacks to charge your favorite mobile devices, UV-proof windows, and sound insulation on the front windscreen, making this kei car more convenient than ever. As always, the 660cc engine remains untouched and it returns a fuel efficiency from 25.8km/L for turbocharged models up to 28.4km/L for non-turbo models, which is still fuel efficient as the customers hoped for, although it still won't cut its rivals from Daihatsu and Suzuki. As for handling, it still as above average as before and when you prompt for the Lowdown variant, it's even more livelier in the bends which dealing with a possible consequence of thudding while going over the speed humps, which is either a blessing and a curse.
If you go for a safety package, the N-ONE will provide some safety features such as City Braking Active System, side seat air bag system for front seat, and side curtain air bag system. Couple this package with the Emergency Stop Signal and Hill start assist function, the result is a much safer car that is a certified Safety Support Car S Basic.
The 2018MY N-One starts at 1,200,960 Japanese Yen (Php 533,000), which remains a fair value for kei car standards. So, which N-ONE will you pick?
