Symbol of its carbon neutrality strategy, Honda’s first electric motorcycle will be presented at the 2026 Lyon Two-Wheels Show.
At the 2026 Lyon Two-Wheels Show, Honda France will unveil for the first time in France its first series electric motorcycle, the WN7. This presentation is part of a space entirely dedicated to the brand’s electric two-wheelers, illustrating its strategy for reducing emissions and its focus on low-impact mobility solutions.
The WN7 officially marks the manufacturer’s entry into the mid-displacement electric motorcycle segment. Inspired by the EV Fun Concept presented at EICMA 2024, it is based on the principle of “Be the Wind,” which aims to offer smooth, silent, and accessible riding. The model has been developed from Honda’s accumulated expertise in combustion motorcycles while integrating the specifics of electric propulsion, including an immediate response to acceleration and reduced vibrations.
An Impressive Technical Specification
From a technical standpoint, the manufacturer announces an indicative range of up to 140 kilometers according to the WMTC cycle. Quick charging is done via the CCS2 standard, more common in cars than in the two-wheeler world, allowing battery levels to go from 20% to 80% in about 30 minutes under optimal conditions.
This presentation is part of the group’s environmental roadmap, which aims for carbon neutrality by 2050 across its entire industrial and commercial lifecycle. In the motorcycle sector, the intermediate goal focuses on carbon-neutral products during the 2040s, combining progressive electrification with continuous improvement of combustion engines.
