From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
The Honda Spocket was a concept car developed by Honda that was displayed at auto shows in 1999 and 2000 but did not enter production.
The Spocket was a convertible with the rear half of the car able to be used for a second row of seats or as a flat floor storage area.[1] It was designed by Honda's California studio, and had a hybrid powertrain with the front wheel driven by a gas engine and the rear wheel by electric motors.[1] It had a wheelbase of 2,750 millimetres (108 in) and a length of 4,270 millimetres (168 in).[2]
Honda showed the concept at the 1999 Tokyo Motor Show,[1] the 2000 North American International Auto Show,[3] and the 2000 LA Auto Show, though it did not go into production.[4]
