Honda is preparing to reveal, on September 2, 2025, what could be its first electric motorcycle focused on performance.
After years of investing in concepts and testing, the company released a video showing a camouflaged prototype in action, indicating the model is getting closer to final production. The design resembles the EV Fun Concept unveiled at EICMA, but with new features such as a rectangular TFT screen, more sophisticated controls, and a single-sided swingarm similar to the one used on the CB1000R.
It’s still unclear whether the announcement will mark the official launch of a production model or an advanced prototype. Honda had previously promised to release a mid-size electric motorcycle in 2025, and this may be the starting point of that new phase.
The original concept promised performance similar to a mid-displacement combustion motorcycle and more than 100 km of range, although that distance is considered limited for a leisure-oriented model.
If confirmed, the news could mark an important step in the market, making Honda the first among the four major Japanese manufacturers to launch an electric motorcycle with relevant performance. With its industrial capacity and distribution network, the brand could make this type of vehicle accessible to a wider audience, beyond enthusiasts or niche consumers.
