Honda unveiled its first full-size electric motorcycle, the Honda E-VO, marking a pivotal moment in the company’s electrification journey.
Launched in China as the Wuyang-Honda WH8000D, this electric café racer combines the nostalgic charm of classic café racer styling with cutting-edge electric technology, positioning Honda as a serious contender in the growing electric two-wheeler market.
The E-VO features a classic café racer look with a round headlight, half-fairing, and handlebar-end mirrors.
Its 8 kW electric motor delivers a peak power of 15.8 kW, achieving a top speed of 120 km/h. With two battery options—4.1 kWh for a 120 km range and 6.2 kWh for 170 km—it caters to varied riding needs.
