Honda E Electric Advance in Singapore, COE, road tax and insurance prices

What the Honda E Electric Advance costs to insure in Singapore, with the COE rule for electric cars and how road tax is set.

This page covers the Honda E Electric Advance as our quote form names it. Insurers list it separately from other Honda E entries, and the pages can show different prices. If you own this car, or are weighing one up, here is what we can show about its yearly costs.

Every insurance figure is an example, as of 1 November 2026. It applies to one stated driver and one car age. Your own premium depends on your own details.

What the price page covers

The new-car list has no entry under this name on sale now. So this guide gives no list price, power figure or body type for it.

The price page prices the Honda E Electric Advance, a fully electric car. It is the version most of the insurers quote under this name.

Because insurers can list the same car more than once, check how yours appears on your log card and on any quote.

The COE for an electric Honda E

An electric car's COE category turns on motor power. The price page says a fully electric Honda E Electric Advance needs a Category A COE if its motor is 110kW (147bhp) or less. A more powerful motor means a Category B COE.

In the October 2026 2nd round, Category A closed at S$132,004 and Category B at S$131,901. Each round brings new figures. The COE page lists them.

Road tax: set by the motor

For an electric car, LTA works out road tax from motor power, not engine size. Our facts for this listing hold no motor power figure, so this guide gives no road tax figure.

The road tax page lets you work it out from your car's motor power. The age surcharge for older cars applies to electric cars too:

  • Over 10 years: +10%
  • Over 11 years: +20%
  • Over 12 years: +30%
  • Over 13 years: +40%
  • Over 14 years: +50%

Car insurance for one standard driver

The Honda E Electric Advance price page uses this profile:

  • Car: Honda E Electric Advance, registered 3 years ago, private use, comprehensive cover
  • Driver: aged 40, married, office job, 10 years of driving
  • Record: 50% NCD, no claims
  • Repairs: authorised workshop, no options

4 insurers price this listing. The lowest premium is S$1,294.47 a year. The dearest of them asks at least S$1,709.56. That is S$415.09 more, or 32% on top. All prices include 9% GST.

13 insurers have no online price under this name. Several do not quote electric cars online. One prices only repairs at any workshop.

What you pay if you claim

The excess on this page runs from S$600 to S$1,200. The lowest premium carries the S$1,200 excess. The next plan, at S$1,314.63, carries S$900. The dearer plans carry S$600.

That plan at S$900 is also priced for any workshop, not an authorised one. Two plans are marked as estimates.

What moves the lowest price

The price page changes one detail at a time:

  • No NCD (0%): S$2,977.28, S$1,682.81 more, with 3 insurers pricing
  • 20% NCD: S$2,174.71, S$880.24 more
  • Driver aged 27, 3 years' driving, 30% NCD: S$3,252.31, S$1,957.84 more, with only 1 insurer pricing
  • Driver aged 65, 20 years' driving, 50% NCD: S$1,305.56, S$11.09 more, with 5 insurers pricing
  • New car, registered this year: S$1,377.07, S$82.60 more
  • Car 8 years old: S$1,266.91, S$27.56 less, with 3 insurers pricing

The young driver profile is by far the costliest. The lowest price rises by 151%, and only 1 insurer prices it. That leaves nothing to compare.

Losing your NCD is the next biggest change. The lowest price more than doubles, to S$2,977.28.

The older driver result runs the other way. It costs only S$11.09 more, and more insurers price it than price the standard driver.

All of these are lowest prices. Plans higher up the list may move by different amounts.

Against other electric cars

The price page sets this listing beside six electric cars, for the same driver and car age:

Their average lowest price is S$1,154.39. This listing costs 12% more than that. 4 of the six are cheaper to insure on these details.

The four cheaper cars each draw 9 or 10 insurers. Other Honda models are on the Honda car insurance page.

Running costs that depend on you

These have no single figure:

  • Parking: season parking at home, plus parking at work and when out.
  • Charging: the cost depends on where and how often you charge, and the rate you pay.
  • ERP: depends on your routes and the time of day.
  • Servicing: follow the maker's schedule. Ask what any remaining warranty covers, including the battery.
  • Depreciation: what you pay against how many COE years remain.

Summary of yearly costs we can show

For the Honda E Electric Advance, as of 1 November 2026 unless dated otherwise:

  • Road tax: no figure, as the facts hold no motor power for this listing; see the road tax page
  • Insurance, standard driver: from S$1,294.47 a year
  • Insurance, no NCD: from S$2,977.28
  • Insurance, 65-year-old driver: from S$1,305.56
  • Insurance, car 8 years old: from S$1,266.91

COE for reference: S$132,004 for Category A and S$131,901 for Category B in the October 2026 2nd round.
