The company also claims that the e-bike would have a cruising range of over 100km.

Fast Charging Battery

Its battery would be compatible with a CCS2 quick charger i.e the same one used for cars. This would help optimize charging performance as well as create more options for charging.

Honda Carbon Neutrality

Honda is working to electrify its portfolio as its future sustainable strategy. It has marked the year 2024 as the entry point into the electric bike segment starting with the global launch of its electric bikes, then positioned the time up to 2026 as the time of market entry and beyond that as the time for business growth.

Final Thoughts

Honda is making continuous efforts to create a full range of electric bikes to meet the diversified needs of consumers as well as to promote the faster adoption of electric vehicles.

With the addition of these EV Concepts, Honda is making excellent progress in shaping its electric portfolio. It aims to expand its market share globally through its efforts and become the leading business in the electric two-wheeler segment as well.
