Performance & Features

Equipped with an electric motor and Honda’s unique features that can be adjusted according to preference and riding conditions.
Whether you're cruising through the city or heading out on a long tour, it delivers an invigorating ride tailored to your style.

E-Drive Unit and Motor

The Honda WN7 delivers truly engaging performance, available in two variants – 18kW rated power (50kW max. power) for A2 licence holders and 11kW rated power (11.2kW max. power) for those with an A1 licence. Its advanced water-cooled motor produces power on par with a 600cc internal combustion engine, while generating 100Nm of torque – comparable to a 1,000cc motorcycle.

The integrated Power Drive Unit (PDU) minimizes energy loss and achieves high electrical efficiency. By adopting a belt drive, the model balances excellent quietness with smooth riding comfort.

Selectable Deceleration Power Levels

On the highway, lower the deceleration level for a smooth and relaxed ride. On winding roads, increase it for more stopping power as you release the throttle. This unique feature brings out a truly “feel-good” ride, tailored to every situation.

Four Riding Modes

Choose from multiple riding modes to match your preferences and conditions. SPORT mode offers dynamic, responsive performance. STANDARD mode delivers smooth acceleration for everyday use. RAIN mode ensures stable control in wet conditions, while ECON helps extend the range.

Walking Speed Mode

The low-speed forward and reverse assist functions support manoeuvring in tight spaces.

You can control the speed using the throttle, making it easier to enter and exit your home garage, park in narrow city spots, and navigate through back alleys smoothly.

Active Speed Limiter

Supports you in keeping within your set speed. Prevents unintended speeding, so you can ride with peace of mind in school zones and city streets.
