New Honda 2025 EV Concepts

Honda has already been active in the electric two-wheeler market with scooters and bicycles. Now, the Japanese manufacturer has revealed its first electric motorcycle at the annual Milan Motorcycle Show.

The high-performance model is known as the EV Fun Concept and was shown alongside its smaller sibling, the EV Urban Concept, an electric scooter that follows the same design line. Both models feature some impressive specs.

What Honda’s first electric motorcycle looks like:

The EV Fun Concept is styled like a naked sportbike, a type of motorcycle that has no fairing, leaving some components visible;

Based on Honda’s press release, the EV Fun Concept is expected to accelerate like a 650cc motorcycle;

Honda says the electric motorcycle will come with a fixed battery instead of a swappable one;

It seems like an odd decision, given that several models take advantage of the benefits of a removable battery. But there is an advantage to opting for a fixed configuration: Honda will be able to use all the available space on both bikes to accommodate a larger battery;

The estimated range is 100 km, which is below competitors such as the BMW CE 04;

Both bikes are compatible with CCS2 fast charging, meaning you can use almost any charging station to charge the electric vehicles;

Honda will also offer an app that can be linked to the bike to provide information about the motor, battery and overall condition of the bike.

The EV Urban Concept, on the other hand, is an electric scooter that appears to have been influenced by BMW's CE 04.

With plans to fully electrify its two-wheeler lineup by the 2040s, Honda has set lofty goals to achieve carbon neutrality across its entire product lineup by 2050.

The company aims to launch 30 electric motorcycles globally by 2030.
