Honda has unveiled its e-MTB Concept bike at the recently concluded Japan Mobility Show, showing interest in the rapidly growing e-bike market.
We’ve seen a lot of automakers and motorcycle manufacturers venture into the world of electric bicycles in recent years. Companies like Porsche have invested heavily in e-bike projects, while brands such as Ducati and Yamaha have impressed with their performance-oriented electric mountain bikes. This time around, it’s Honda who’s shown a keen interest in the e-bike world, as evidenced by its recent showcase in the Japan Mobility Show.
It features a full-suspension frame with downhill geometry accentuated by a slack head angle, low saddle, and sloping frame. The frame itself appears to boast a monocoque design, while the rear swingarm looks like a single piece of aluminum – similar to what we find in high-performance motorcycles. Although Honda has yet to confirm the bike’s powertrain, multiple sources suggest that the bike will be powered by that of the German company Brose.
