Honda's EV Fun Concept, scheduled for commercialisation in 2025, is an electric sports motorcycle with performance comparable to a mid-sized internal combustion engine motorcycle. The EV Fun Concept aims to combine the quiet, vibration-free ride of an electric motorcycle with a sleek, easy-to-manage naked motorcycle design.
“Developed by applying know-how and technologies cultivated in Honda’s automobiles and power products, the EV FUN Concept’s battery is compatible with the CCS2 quick charger (the same standard as automobiles) and has been developed to find the optimal balance between light weight and quick charging performance. It will provide a cruising range of over 100km.”
EV Urban Concept
The EV Urban Concept showcases Honda's vision for urban electric mobility, emphasising functionality, connected technologies, and an in-house developed battery pack. Honda aims to make mobility accessible to a wider range of customers and expand mobility possibilities for everyone.
“It embodies a vision of near-future mobility that cooperates and resonates with people and society through its essential and sophisticated styling and intuitive human-machine interface (HMI), while promising new experiences created by the fusion of software and hardware. Honda’s goal is to open up the freedom of mobility to as many customers as possible, and to expand the possibilities of mobility for each and every customer.”
Honda V3 internal combustion engine concept
Honda also introduced a new high-efficiency, high-performance V3 internal combustion engine concept designed for larger displacement motorcycles. This water-cooled 75° V3 engine features the world’s first electrical compressor for motorcycles, enabling high-response torque across the full rpm range.
“Designed to be extremely slim and compact, the water-cooled 75° V3 engine features the world’s first electrical compressor for motorcycles, which is able to control compression of the intake air irrespective of engine rpm, meaning that high-response torque can be delivered across the full rpm range. In addition, the electrical compressor allows a high degree of freedom of layout of all components in the limited space available on a motorcycle, and an efficient centralisation of mass.”
