The e:NP2 and e:NS2 were previewed several times prior to its introduction. In November 2022, the models are previewed as a single concept car, the Honda e:N2 Concept.[2] In April 2023 at the Auto Shanghai, the models are previewed again as two concept vehicles named the Honda e:NP2 Prototype and Honda e:NS2 Prototype.[3] In November 2023 at the Auto Guangzhou, both vehicles appeared as production-ready vehicles.[4] The e:NP2, with a Chinese name (Chinese: 极湃2; pinyin: Jí pài 2; lit.
