The Honda N360 is a kei car, designed and built by Honda and produced from March 1967 through 1970, while its larger N600 brother lasted three more years. The car featured front wheel drive and an air-cooled 354 cc, 31 hp (23 kW) 2 cylinder engine also used in the Honda Vamos, with a beam axle/leaf spring rear suspension. A 2-door sedan was the original body style, with a 2-door wagon called the LN360 coming in June of the first year.

  • The Honda N360 is a kei car, designed and built by Honda and produced from March 1967 through 1970, while its larger N600 brother lasted three more years. The car featured front wheel drive and an air-cooled 354 cc, 31 hp (23 kW) 2 cylinder engine also used in the Honda Vamos, with a beam axle/leaf spring rear suspension. A 2-door sedan was the original body style, with a 2-door wagon called the LN360 coming in June of the first year. An upgraded 36 hp (27 kW) engine was added in October 1968 for the N360 T. A 402 cc engine was used in the similar N400. The Hondamatic-equipped 1968 N360AT was the first Kei car with an automatic transmission. Just seven months after road testing the N360, Britain’s Motor magazine tested a Honda N600 in November 1968. They reported that it had a top speed of 77.1 mph (124.1 km/h) and could accelerate from 0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 19 seconds. An overall fuel consumption of 36.3 miles per imperial gallon (7.78 L/100 km; 30.2 mpg) was achieved. The test car was priced in the UK at £589 including taxes, at a time when the Mini 850 was retailing for £561. The testers were impressed to find 1100 performance from a 600 cc car, but found it ‘very noisy when extended’. They found the Honda as easy to drive and park, and ‘quite well equipped’. The performance figures put the car at or near the top of its class under most criteria, reflecting its favourable power to weight ratio. The car was thus 5 mph (8.0 km/h) faster than the 72 mph (116 km/h) achieved by rival magazine Autocar in an N360 in May 1968, and more than ten seconds quicker to 60 mph (97 km/h) which the N360 achieved in 29.3 seconds. Consistent with its slower performance, the N360 squeezed 3 extra miles out of a (UK) gallon of fuel, managing an overall 39.4 miles per imperial gallon (7.17 L/100 km; 32.8 mpg). The N600 was introduced to the USA in 1969 as a 1970 model, and was the first Honda automobile to be officially imported to the United States. It was technologically advanced for its time, with an all alloy engine which could achieve 9000 rpm. Engine output was 36–45 hp (27–34 kW) and the N600 was capable of 81 mph (130 km/h). It delivered surprisingly peppy performance because of its light weight (around 550 kg/1100 pounds), due to compact dimensions and some plastic parts (like the boot lid). The first brakes were very weak, despite having front disks and power assist. Rear suspension was a dead axle on leaf springs. Production was stopped in 1972, along with the sportier Honda Z600 (or Z-Act, depending on country). The first generation Honda Civic replaced these little cars with something a little more suited to the American Interstate system.
  • Der Honda N600 ist ein Kleinwagen des Automobilherstellers Honda. Zwischen 1967 und 1973 wurde der N600 (Typcode N600 und dem Produktcode 568) als frontgetriebene zweitürige Limousine gebaut. Parallel dazu wurde das Fahrzeug auch als Coupé unter dem Namen Honda Z angeboten. Er wurde mit einem fahrtwind/gebläsegekühlten Zweizylinder-Reihenmotor (die gedrosselte Version in Deutschland für Besitzer des alten Führerscheins der Klasse 4 hatte einen Zylinder stillgelegt) bis 44 PS in der Ausführung GA ausgeliefert und wog zirka 600 kg. Der N360 (Typcode N360 und dem Produktcode 567) wurde als kleiner Bruder von 1966 bis 1969 gebaut und ab 1967 in Deutschland verkauft. Von ihm wurde der TN360 (Typcode TN360 und dem Produktcode 512) als Kleintransporter abgeleitet, der mit 30 PS bei 8.000 min aber nur in Japan unterwegs war. Weltweit gab es zahlreiche verschiedene Versionen dieses Autotyps, wie zum Beispiel vom N600 den Touring / G / GT / GTL / E / Town und AT (Automatik). In Frankreich und Belgien gab es den N400 (Typcode N400 und dem Produktcode 593), in England den N500Dazu wurde auch noch eine Art "Kombi"-Version gebaut, der LN360 (Typcode LN360AT und dem Produktcode 584). Um 1970 gingen aus dem N360 der Honda Z (Typcode Z360 und dem Produktcode 605) und 1971 der Honda Life hervor. Vom Life gab es neben dem 2- und 4-Türer auch einen Van (Stepvan) und einen Pick-Up. Diese Autos fanden allerdings nicht mehr den Weg nach Deutschland, denn inzwischen war der Honda Civic in der Entwicklung und kam 1972 auf den europäischen Markt. In Deutschland dürfte es nur noch eine Handvoll fahrbereiter Fahrzeuge geben.
