Honda Access has released a new set of factory‑fitted accessories for the refreshed third‑generation Honda N‑Box, targeting buyers who want a sportier look without altering the vehicle’s mechanical core.
Sporty Style package adds a race‑inspired flair
The Sporty Style package is designed specifically for the N‑Box Custom trim. It features a large front grille split by a custom trim piece available in Platinum White Pearl, Crystal Black Pearl, or Meteoroid Gray Metallic, paired with a Berlina Black lower garnish.
What catches most attention are the decal set and mirror caps that adopt the Frame Red hue from the Civic Type R, giving the kei van a noticeably racy appearance.
New 15‑inch alloy wheels complete the package. These wheels have four double spokes and are said to incorporate lessons from Honda’s Modulo X series. According to Honda Access, the rims act as an “active part of the suspension,” with a tuned balance that allows them to flex under load, aiming to improve ride comfort and handling.

Other styling kits in the Honda Access catalog
Alongside the Sporty Style, they offer two additional kits. The Active Leisure Style, intended for the N‑Box Joy, adds a roof carrier, yellow and orange decals, a different grille with Honda lettering, two‑color fog lights, a rear spoiler, a fuel‑lid garnish, black tailgate trim, and 14‑inch Berlina Black alloy wheels.
The Modern Casual Style, which fits the standard N‑Box, uses copper decals and mirror caps, fog lights with a Platinum White Pearl garnish, white alloy wheels, and a wood‑style floor mat for a softer aesthetic.
Both kits also provide interior upgrades such as a roof‑mounted console with tissue‑box holders and a retractable sunshade, optional 8‑inch infotainment screens, 12.8‑inch rear entertainment monitors, premium audio, front and rear dashcams, LED ambient lighting, and antimicrobial floor mats.
These accessories are purely cosmetic; the underlying powertrain remains unchanged. The refreshed N‑Box continues to be powered by a 660 cc three‑cylinder engine, offered in naturally aspirated form at 58 hp (43 kW) and a turbocharged version delivering up to 63 hp (47 kW). Power is sent to either front‑wheel drive or all‑wheel drive via a mandatory CVT.
Pricing for the updated model in Japan ranges from ¥1,739,100 to ¥2,475,000, roughly $10,800 to $15,400.

The van remains affordable.
Given the modest price range, the Sporty Style package may appeal to younger drivers seeking a visual cue that sets their van apart, while still preserving the practicality that defines the kei‑car segment.
It’s possible that the added weight of the larger wheels and decorative elements could slightly affect fuel efficiency, though Honda has not released specific figures. Buyers should weigh the aesthetic benefits against any potential change in operating costs.
Overall, Honda Access’s new accessories provide a straightforward way to personalize the N‑Box without compromising its core functionality, reinforcing the model’s position as a versatile option in Japan’s crowded compact‑vehicle market.
