EV-STER Bound For Production?

The latest rumor to come out of the Honda doors is that the EV-STER concept seen at the Tokyo Motor Show may be going into production. The concept is a kei-car and is essentially the same size as the Honda Beat. It is powered by a 78-hp lithium ion motor and can hit 60km/h in 5 seconds with power going to the rear wheels. The electric car has a range of 100 miles and a top speed of 100mph. No word on the production size or power of the gas engine.

No idea when it may come to North America, we'll keep you posted.
