Honda announces its new e-motorcycle, WN7, to the European market
Honda Powersports is taking the next step toward total electrification across all products by unveiling its first electric motorcycle, the Honda WN7.
In 2023, Honda said it aims to be carbon neutral across all products and corporate activities by 2050, and to make all motorcycle products carbon neutral by the 2040s. The company says it is prioritizing motorcycle electrification as a core pillar of its future environmental strategy.
Honda says it will continue to respond to the diverse needs of customers by advancing efforts to create a full lineup of EVs, from commuters to Fun models, and by offering a wide variety of environmentally friendly options.
The WN7 will be Honda’s first fixed-battery electric naked bike. It is a production model designed for its EV Fun Concept first exhibited at EICMA 2024 in Milan, Italy, and is the first of 30 electric models Honda plans on releasing by 2030.
Honda says the WN7 delivers a quiet and smooth ride distinct from internal combustion engine models, while achieving a high level of enjoyment and the thrill of the open road.
