Honda WN7 Electric Motorcycle Unveiled in Europe with Over 130 km Range

Honda has unveiled its first electric motorcycle the WN7 with a fixed battery, in Europe. The unveil is part of Honda’s broader strategy to achieve carbon neutrality across all products and corporate activities by 2050, with the goal of making all motorcycle models carbon-neutral by the 2040s.

Honda is expanding its electric motorcycle lineup globally, aiming to provide options for both commuter and recreational use. The WN7 is designed as a “Fun” model and is based on the EV Fun Concept which was displayed at EICMA 2024 in Milan, Italy.

The WN7 name comes from “W” for the development concept “Be the Wind,” “N” for Naked style, and “7” for its output class. The motorcycle uses a fixed lithium-ion battery and includes a 5-inch TFT screen that connects to Honda RoadSync.

The WN7 offers an estimated range of over 130 km. It supports the CCS2 charging standard, allowing rapid charging from 20% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes. Home charging is also available, with a full charge possible in under three hours. Honda says the WN7’s performance is comparable to 600cc internal combustion engine motorcycles in output and 1000cc models in torque.

Honda plans to expand its electric motorcycle offerings to meet a range of customer needs, from commuter motorcycles to recreational models, as part of its long-term environmental strategy.
