Honda Cars India has once again been spotted testing its upcoming electric SUV. Based on the Honda 0 Alpha concept, the camouflaged prototype was recently seen in Manali, revealing its cabin in greater detail than before. The latest spy images show a large landscape-oriented infotainment touchscreen and a fully digital instrument cluster.
In the spy images, the SUV’s interior is visible through the driver’s window. A few interior highlights include a large freestanding infotainment touchscreen at the centre of the dashboard and a fully digital instrument cluster positioned behind the steering wheel. The touchscreen is expected to feature Honda’s new UI, and other expected features include wireless smartphone connectivity, connected car features, navigation, and EV-specific functions. Below, physical buttons for the climate control and other functions can also be seen. The steering wheel appears to feature a new multi-function design, while the dashboard adopts the minimalist styling seen on Honda’s global 0 Series models.The Honda Alpha 0 was first showcased at the 2025 Japan Mobility Show. Honda calls the Honda 0 Alpha concept “Thin, Light, and Wise,” and that philosophy clearly reflects in its styling. The SUV carries a broad, upright stance that gives it presence, while the sharply angled front and near-vertical rear windscreens stand out as key design highlights. The window line sweeps upward toward the rear, merging into a thick C-pillar that gives it a hint of MPV-like proportions, capped off with a subtle roof spoiler.
Design-wise, up front, the smooth fascia houses an illuminated Honda emblem and an integrated charging port, bordered neatly by sleek headlamp units. A bold lower bumper transitions into muscular body cladding along the sides, where aero-styled 19-inch, five-spoke alloys fill the flared wheel arches. At the rear, a wide U-shaped LED light strip frames the upright glass area, while a chunky faux skid plate on the bumper completes the rugged yet futuristic appeal.Both the front and rear feature large, screen-like sections that integrate various functional elements. At the front, traditionally separate components – such as the headlights, illuminated Honda badge, and charging port are neatly unified within the screen area. The rear continues this theme with a distinctive U-shaped lighting signature that merges the tail, reverse, and turn signal lamps. The near-vertical tailgate design also hints at generous luggage capacity and improved practicality.Image: Instagram/pxrtth.gpt
