Honda Motor Co. has confirmed plans to debut a sport-oriented electric motorcycle on September 2, 2025, unveiling camouflaged teaser images that hint at a fully electric take on its established “EV Fun Concept.” This model is expected to usher in a new era of electrified two‑wheelers built for performance and everyday usability.
Teaser clips released on Honda’s social platforms show a traditional motorcycle configuration — featuring a two-person seat, upright riding posture, and a single-sided rear swingarm — which signals the intention to deliver a conventional riding experience drenched in electric powertrains rather than scooter-style ergonomics.
Industry observers believe the upcoming production model will be derived from the EV Fun Concept, unveiled at EICMA 2024 in Milan. The concept was presented as Honda’s first electric sports bike with fixed CCS2-compatible battery pack, seating in the mid‑sized (ICE‑equivalent) class with more than 100 km estimated range.
The new electric roadster’s styling appears aerodynamic yet restrained — similar to the concept — and lacks aggressive fairings. Its design suggests Honda is positioning the bike as a nimble street‑focused commuter rather than a track‑oriented supersport, bridging daily use with sporty looks.
This move reinforces Honda’s strategic roadmap to introduce 10 electric motorcycle models globally by 2025, starting with commuter scooters and expanding into performance-focused variants. Honda has already launched models such as the Active e: and CUV e: in several markets, with the EV Fun and EV Urban concepts paving the path for future production machines.
Honda has confirmed the September launch for what is widely expected to be its first large-capacity electric motorcycle. The company plans to support adoption with CCS2 fast charging compatibility and positioning within the competitive mid‑displacement performance segment, potentially offering around 60 miles (100 km) of real-world range with ultra-fast charging.
