Charging Costs
Cost to Charge Honda e:Ny1
Updated March 2026
The Honda e:Ny1 carries a 61.9 kWh battery and consumes about 185 Wh/km, delivering up to 385 km of range. Its moderate DC charging speed of 78 kW means fast charging sessions take a bit longer than some competitors. Drivers using our app find that home charging is the clear winner for keeping costs down. A full charge gives you a WLTP rated range of approximately 412 km. Here is what it costs to charge at home, at public AC chargers, and at DC fast chargers across Europe. Always check your vehicle's manual for exact specifications.
Charging costs vary significantly depending on your electricity tariff, time of day, charging network, subscription, and location. The numbers below are estimates based on average European electricity prices and may not reflect what you actually pay. Always check your network's app for current pricing before charging.

How to Calculate Honda e:Ny1 Charging Costs
Calculating your charging cost comes down to two numbers: how much energy your car uses, and how much you pay for that energy. Here is the formula.
Cost per 100 km = (consumption in Wh/km × 100 ÷ 1000) × price per kWh
Cost per full charge = battery capacity in kWh × price per kWh
Example: Honda e:Ny1 at home
If your home electricity costs €0.25 per kWh (a rough European average), and the Honda e:Ny1 consumes approximately 182 Wh per kilometer:
- Energy per 100 km: 182 × 100 ÷ 1000 = 18.2 kWh
- Cost per 100 km: 18.2 × €0.25 = €4.55
- Full charge (0-100%): ~61.9 kWh × €0.25 = €15.47
Example: Honda e:Ny1 at a DC fast charger
DC fast chargers typically cost more, often around €0.45 per kWh or higher. Using the same formula:
- Cost per 100 km: 18.2 × €0.45 = €8.19
- Full charge (0-100%): ~61.9 kWh × €0.45 = €27.86
Keep in mind: These are simplified examples. Your actual cost depends on your specific electricity tariff (which varies by time of day and provider), any charging network subscription you have, session fees, idle fees, and how efficiently you drive. Cold weather, high speeds, and heavy loads all increase consumption. Use these numbers as a starting point, not a guarantee.
Home Charging vs Public Charging
Where you charge makes the biggest difference in what you pay. Here is how the options compare for the Honda e:Ny1.
Home charging (AC, typically 3.7 to 22 kW)
The cheapest option. You pay your home electricity rate, which in most European countries is between €0.15 and €0.40 per kWh. The Honda e:Ny1 can charge at up to 11 kW on AC, so a full charge from empty takes several hours. Most drivers plug in overnight and wake up to a full battery. If your energy provider offers off-peak rates, charging between midnight and 6 AM can reduce costs further.
Public AC charging (typically 7 to 22 kW)
Public AC chargers at shopping centres, workplaces, or on-street locations usually cost more than home electricity but less than DC fast chargers. Prices range from €0.25 to €0.50 per kWh depending on the network and country. Some are free (employer-provided or included in parking).
DC fast charging (up to 78 kW)
The fastest but most expensive option. The Honda e:Ny1 supports DC fast charging at up to approximately 78 kW, which can take the battery from 10% to 80% in roughly 46 minutes under good conditions. DC prices typically range from €0.35 to €0.70+ per kWh. Some networks also charge per-minute fees or session fees on top.
Should You Charge to 80% or 100%?
You may have heard the advice to "only charge to 80%." Whether this applies to you depends on how you charge and what battery your Honda e:Ny1 has.
At DC fast chargers
Charging speed slows down significantly above 80% on most electric cars, including the Honda e:Ny1. The last 20% can take as long as the first 60%. If you are on a road trip and paying per kWh (or per minute), stopping at 80% saves both time and money. This is a practical recommendation for fast charging, not a strict rule.
At home (AC charging)
At home, charging to 100% occasionally is generally fine. The speed taper above 80% does not matter when you are charging overnight on cheap electricity. Some manufacturers recommend keeping the daily limit around 80-90% to help with long-term battery health. Check your Honda e:Ny1's manual for the manufacturer's specific recommendation.
Battery care advice varies by manufacturer, battery chemistry, and model year. The above is general guidance. Always follow the recommendations in your Honda e:Ny1's owner manual.

Tips to Reduce Charging Costs
- Charge at home overnight as your primary routine. The e:Ny1's 61.9 kWh battery fills up on a 7 kW home wallbox in about 9 hours, and home rates are typically much cheaper than public charging.
- When using DC fast chargers, stop at 80%. The e:Ny1's 78 kW maximum charging speed slows down significantly above 80%, so those last 20% take disproportionately long and cost more per usable kilometer.
- Use Eco mode for daily commuting. It limits power output and optimizes climate control, helping you stay near or below the 185 Wh/km consumption figure.
- Plan road trips to minimize DC fast charging sessions. With 385 km of range, you can often make it between major stops without needing multiple expensive top-ups.
- Keep tires at the recommended pressure. The e:Ny1's SUV profile creates more aerodynamic drag than a sedan, so underinflated tires compound the efficiency loss.
Plugging in at home every night with an 80% charge limit is the most affordable approach. The e:Ny1's 385 km range means most drivers can go several days between charges for typical commutes. Public fast charging at 78 kW works for occasional road trips, but the per-kWh cost is noticeably higher than home electricity.
These tips are general suggestions. Your situation may differ depending on your electricity contract, driving patterns, and local charging infrastructure. Always follow safe charging practices and your vehicle manufacturer's guidelines.
