On 2nd September, Honda is set to take a significant step into the electric vehicle market with the presentation of its first large-capacity electric motorcycle. The bike is likely to offer the performance of a 500cc petrol bike and represents a significant innovation in the high-performance EV segment on behalf of the brand. Nevertheless, the model is not likely to be launched in India shortly.
Honda’s First Big EV Bike
Honda has now decided to launch the high-performance electric motorcycle, following the release of several small electric scooters. The new EV seems to be a caricature of the EV Fun Concept, which was displayed the previous year. This concept bike by Honda would be equivalent in power to a mid-sized engine, with a far greater torque rating, approximately 50bhp.
Fashionable Design Elements
- It has a futuristic and premium appearance through wide LED DRL
- Bar-end mirrors on clip-on handlebars give a sporty look.
- One small bit of sports car seating triangle that points towards a performance-based design
Modern Tech
- Computerised display and controls on a large TFT screen
- You will find CCS2 fast-charging support, which is typically used in electric cars.
