Honda unveiled its first electric motorcycle, the Honda WN7, to the public for the first time at EICMA 2025 in Milan, Italy.

A key engineering highlight of the WN7 is its frameless chassis structure, where the centrally mounted aluminum battery case functions as part of the main frame. This design reduces weight, creates a slimmer and more compact profile, and improves mass balance for more agile handling. Power comes from a newly developed water-cooled electric motor with an integrated inverter, delivering 50 kW (68 PS) and 100 Nm of torque, performance comparable to 600–1,000 cc internal-combustion motorcycles. The power is transferred through a new gearbox and a quiet belt-drive system.

The WN7 features a 9.3-kWh lithium-ion battery, supporting CCS2 fast charging from 20% to 80% in about 30 minutes, and Type 2 standard charging from 0% to 100% in around 2.4 hours. It offers a riding range of approximately 140 km per charge (WMTC standard). The motorcycle also comes with regenerative braking during throttle-off deceleration, adjustable deceleration levels, and a Walking Speed Mode that allows the bike to move forward or backward slowly for easy parking and maneuvering in tight spaces.

The Honda WN7 will be produced at Honda’s Kumamoto Factory in Japan and will be introduced sequentially in global markets that are advancing toward electrification. It marks an important step for Honda as the company accelerates its transition into the electric two-wheel era.
