Compilation of Honda commercials: Charming, approachable direction from kei cars to wagons (21–30)

HONDA N-BOX CUSTOM Special Edition “BLACK STYLE”

[N-BOX CUSTOM] Web Movie: “Special Edition BLACK STYLE”

This commercial introduces the BLACK STYLE, a special edition of the N-BOX CUSTOM, and powerfully highlights the meticulous attention to detail behind it.

By paralleling the black body of the car with the image of painting black on a wall, it conveys a commitment to the color black itself.

It portrays both the devotion to color and the fine functional details, resulting in content that enhances a sense of trust.

HONDA STEP WGN “The Family From Now On” Version

HONDA STEP WGN e:HEV Commercial: “The Family From Now On” (30 seconds)

“Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da” makes you want to break into a light, bouncy step.

It’s a well-known Beatles number, and I’m sure many people recognize it as soon as they hear it! For Honda’s commercial, it’s covered by Orono, the vocalist of SUPERORGANISM, a multinational pop-rock band active in London, UK.

The poppy melody and vocals—blending nostalgia with freshness—make it a perfect track for family drives! The Beatles’ original version has a different vibe and is wonderful too, so I recommend listening to both!

HONDA VEZEL “e:HEV” Version

[TV Commercial] VEZEL “e:HEV” Version (April 2021)

Singer-songwriter Fujii Kaze, whose unique charm and solid musicianship have won him widespread popularity.

Kirari is a track written specifically for Honda’s VEZEL commercial, a pop tune with a refreshing, lighthearted mood and wordplay that’s fun to the ear.

It has just the kind of cool vibe that suits cars and motorbikes perfectly! The flowing melody and Kaze’s airy vocals feel wonderful.

Of course the song’s atmosphere is great, but the dancing in the music video is also incredibly cool! Listening to this track makes you feel like you could glide right on through.

HONDA Civic Sedan

Lee Morgan’s “The Sidewinder,” by the American jazz trumpeter, was once used in a Civic sedan commercial.

Its gradual development from a minimal melody is distinctive and keeps you excited to hear what comes next.

The commercial featured an arranged version, highlighted by a striking, sharp violin tone.

HONDA N-ONE e: me & e: “Usable Interior” Edition / “Light Footwork” Edition

These are two commercials that showcase the usability of the N-ONE e: through time spent with family and friends.

In the “Practical Interior” version, we see a family going shopping, highlighting how the versatile seat arrangements allow for loading large items.

Meanwhile, the “Light Footwork” version follows a trip to the beach with friends, demonstrating how its tight turning ability makes getting around effortless.

Both commercials depict specific scenes that clearly convey how it feels to use the car.

HONDA WR-V “All together—could it get any better?” version

HONDA WR-V TV commercial: “Everyone together—this is the best!” 15 seconds

Set in an overseas supermarket, the commercial shows everyone tossing item after item into a giant shopping cart.

Just when you’re thinking, “Are they really going to buy that much and still fit it in the car?” it proudly shows that with the WR-V’s cargo capacity, there’s no problem at all! Overflowing with a fun, upbeat vibe, the ad features an original track by the two-man rap group SUSHIBOYS.

The song’s lively groove perfectly matches the commercial, and many viewers have probably been curious about the details of this track.

HONDA VEZEL ‘PLAY VEZEL Daytime’ Version

[TVCM] VEZEL 'PLAY VEZEL Daytime' Version [♪ King Gnu / Small Planet]

Since their major debut in 2019, King Gnu has continued to attract attention.

“Tiny Planet,” a track from their 2020 album CEREMONY, was chosen as the daytime version of the Honda Vezel commercial song.

The commercial has both a day and a night edition, presenting the same scenery at different times of day in a fresh approach; the night edition features a song by Friday Night Plans.

It’s fun to compare the two.
