Honda has launched its first full-size electric motorcycle, the WN7, in Europe, marking a step toward the company’s plan to make all of its motorcycles carbon-neutral by the 2040s.
The WN7 is Honda’s first fixed-battery electric naked model and represents the production version of the EV Fun Concept that was unveiled at the EICMA motorcycle show in Milan in 2024.
The naming convention reflects its design theme, with W standing for “Be the Wind,” N for “Naked,” and 7 denoting the output class. Honda has priced the motorcycle at £12,999, which is roughly Rs. 4.9 million in Pakistani currency.
Key specifications released by the company include:
- Range: Over 130 kilometers per charge
- Battery: Fixed lithium-ion, CCS2 fast charging (20% to 80% in around 30 minutes)
- Home Charging: Full charge in under three hours
- Performance: Comparable to 600cc internal combustion motorcycles in output and 1000cc models in torque
- Design: Slim, EV-specific styling
- Technology: 5-inch TFT screen with Honda RoadSync smartphone connectivity
The WN7 signals Honda’s entry into the larger electric motorcycle market, following earlier focus on electric scooters and commuter models.
