Honda has introduced its second electric vehicle in the two-wheeled segment for the 2025 model year: the CUV e:. The CUV e: features dual Honda Mobile Power Pack e: units that drive its 6kW E-Drive motor, reaching a top speed of 83km/h and a range exceeding 70km (based on Honda’s internal tests). Equipped with a Reverse Assist function, it offers a charge time of six hours for a full charge and just three hours to reach 75%. Users can conveniently charge the CUV e: at home with its dedicated charging dock. Other highlights include a five-inch TFT screen, or a fully connected seven-inch TFT display loaded with EV-specific data, navigation, and additional features via the new Honda RoadSync Duo interface. Additional features include LED lighting, a USB-C port, under-seat storage, and Smart Key technology.
The CUV e: is powered by dual, swappable 48V/1.3kW Honda Mobile Power Pack e: batteries, driving a 6kW E-Drive side motor for a top speed of 83km/h and a range of over 70 km. For tight spaces, Reverse Assist makes parking hassle-free. Riders can choose from three riding modes—SPORT, STANDARD, and ECON—that adjust performance to suit varying range and power needs.
Its clean, modern design includes a flat floor, premium LED lighting, a small inner pocket in the fairing, under-seat storage for essentials, and a USB-C port. The base model comes with a five-inch TFT display, while the RoadSync Duo variant features a seven-inch fully connected TFT display offering navigation and other functions with EV-specific route and charging details. Operation is simplified with Smart Key functionality.
Built on a sturdy steel underbone frame, the CUV e: features 31mm telescopic front forks, twin rear shocks, and 12-inch wheels, with front disc and rear drum brakes. A rear carrier is also part of the standard package.
