Over the past few years,

Honda

has revealed a couple of sleek

EV

concepts with retro-inspired designs. First up at the 2017

Frankfurt Motor Show

was the

Urban EV hatchback

that resembled a mix of a Honda N600 and a first-gen

Volkswagen Golf

. That followed a month later by the

Sports EV coupe

at the

Tokyo Motor Show

. Today, Honda announced it was bringing a new EV prototype to the

Geneva Motor Show

. Based on the single image, it looks like it’s the production version of the Urban EV.

Honda already

confirmed that the car would go into production

, though it’s unclear (and unlikely) if it will make it to America. We’ve already

seen spy photos

from production version testing in Europe. Based on the photos, it looks like the production car will add a set of rear doors. It’s far more practical, but we do love the Urban EV’s three-door style.

Honda says the car is part of its plan to electrify a third of its European lineup by 2025. Cross your fingers for a production version of the Sport EV to follow sometime soon. Honda says both cars ride on the same basic platform. Stay tuned for more news in March.
