What an Acty Super Delux RealTime 4WD is

By 1998 Honda had been iterating on the Acty for well over a decade, and it shows in how resolved the packaging is. Because Honda kept the Acty mid-engined throughout, the E07A in this one sits behind the seats and under the deck rather than beneath them — every rival put its engine under the seat or at the very back. Honda's four-wheel-drive Actys use an on-demand Real Time system built around a viscous coupling, so drive goes rearward when it is needed rather than when the driver remembers to select it.

Mechanical specification of this Acty Super Delux RealTime 4WD

Power comes from the E07A, a 660cc 3-cylinder unit. Honda stayed with a single overhead camshaft and twelve valves for the Acty right through to the end of production in 2021, rather than moving to twin cams. The E07A drives through a manual gearbox. The engine sits in a mid-engine position in this body.
