Honda electrifies EICMA 2024 with innovative e-bike concepts and electric scooters, including the production-ready CUV e: and the sporty EV Fun concept. Explore Honda's vision for the future of urban mobility.

Honda continues its commitment to electric mobility with a diverse range of e-bike concepts and electric scooters showcased at EICMA 2024. Building on the momentum from last year’s show, the Japanese manufacturer presented several innovative models, signaling its intent to lead in the electric vehicle (EV) space.

CUV e: Electric Scooter Nearing Production

Following in the footsteps of the EM 1e:, the CUV e: electric scooter is poised to become Honda’s second EV offering. Equipped with two removable battery packs, this scooter boasts a range of over 70km on a single charge. Previewed at the Tokyo Motor Show last year, the CUV e: features a choice of 5-inch or 7-inch TFT displays with Bluetooth connectivity, three riding modes (standard, sport, and eco), and a convenient reverse function.

EV Fun Concept: A Sporty Electric Naked Bike

Honda ventures into the world of electric motorcycles with the EV Fun concept. This sporty naked bike promises performance comparable to a mid-sized internal combustion engine (ICE) motorcycle and is slated for commercialization in 2025. While still in the concept phase, the presence of production-ready components like brakes and suspension suggests that development is well underway. The EV Fun concept features a striking design with a single-sided swingarm and a headlight reminiscent of the Ola Roadster electric bike lineup. Honda claims a cruising range of over 100km and CCS2 quick charging compatibility, similar to electric cars.

EV Urban Concept: A Glimpse into the Future

The EV Urban concept represents a more futuristic vision from Honda. Details about the powertrain and underpinnings remain scarce, but its silhouette draws comparisons to premium electric scooters like the BMW CE 04. This suggests that Honda may be exploring a similar high-end electric scooter segment in the future.

With a diverse range of electric scooters and e-bike concepts, Honda is not just keeping pace with the evolving landscape of urban transportation, but actively shaping its future. The upcoming CUV e: promises practicality and accessibility, while the EV Fun concept hints at a thrilling electric riding experience. As Honda continues to push the boundaries of electric mobility, it’s clear that the future holds exciting possibilities for riders seeking cleaner, more efficient, and enjoyable ways to navigate the urban jungle.
