Honda plans to launch at least 10 electric motorcycles by 2025
The world's largest motorcycle manufacturer is going electric. On Monday, local time, Honda announced that it will launch "10 or more" electric motorcycles by 2025.
Honda shared a slideshow showing the outline of 11 electric motorcycles, all of which look like mopeds except for the bottom four. Honda said most of them will not be available in North America and will focus mainly on Asian and European markets.
Honda is developing a new "FUN" platform and plans to launch three "big" electric motorcycles in Japan, the U.S. and Europe between 2024 and 2025. It is also developing a children's bike based on the same powertrain and ruggedness.
In addition, Honda is promising more "flex-fuel" motorcycles using E20 and E100 ethanol-based fuels in 2023 and 2025, making them more environmentally friendly.
Honda plans to make its motorcycle business carbon neutral by 2040, with electric versions accounting for about 15 percent of its motorcycle sales by 2030.
