Electric motorcycle and e-scooter from Honda

Battery, range and charging – the Mobile Power Pack

Many electric Honda models use the removable Mobile Power Pack: you take the battery home and charge it from an ordinary socket – no charging station required. How far an e-scooter or an electric motorbike will go depends on the model; the city models are designed for daily commuting. We are happy to give you the exact figures for the model you are interested in.

The removable principle is particularly practical for anyone without a garage of their own: the battery is light enough to carry and charges from any ordinary socket. If you run two batteries you can charge one while the other stays in the vehicle – so the electric scooter never stands still just because it is charging.

How far an e-scooter goes in everyday use depends less on the figure on paper than on your riding profile: short city trips with frequent stops are the best case for an electric vehicle, because no energy is wasted when slowing down and nothing is consumed while stationary. For the commute, the shopping run and errands the range of the city models is more than enough. If you ride long distances out of town every day, talk it through with us first – we will tell you honestly whether an electric model is the right choice.

You need neither a wallbox nor an installation to charge. Charging time depends on the model and the state of charge; we will give you the exact figures for your chosen model before you decide.

Which licence do you need for an e-scooter, e-moped or electric motorcycle?

What matters is the power class: small e-scooters and an e-moped can often be ridden from category AM or A1, while more powerful electric motorbikes require A1 or A. We will clarify which category applies to your chosen model before you buy.

In practice two limits decide which licence you need: top speed and motor output. A 25 km/h model falls into a different category than an electric scooter doing 45 km/h, and an electric motorcycle with 11 kW is classified differently from one with 18 kW. That is exactly why the 11 kW version of the WN7 is in the range: it is the variant for riders holding an A1 licence.

Because the classification differs from model to model, we will confirm the category that applies to your chosen machine before you buy – not in general terms. The steps towards the licence itself, from the learner permit and the first-aid course to basic training, are set out on our licence page.

One advantage applies to every electric model: there is neither a clutch nor a gearbox. Twist the throttle and you are away – that shortens the learning curve considerably and makes the switch easy, especially for car drivers.

Workshop, service and repair for electric motorcycles, e-scooters and e-mopeds

An electric scooter and an electric motorbike need servicing too – brakes, tyres, suspension and electrics remain maintenance items, only the oil change disappears. In our motorcycle workshop in Volketswil we look after the electric Honda models from the e-moped to the e-motorbike: repairs, spare parts, tyres and everything around battery and charging.

What an electric scooter costs to run depends on the model and your mileage – we will work it out for the model you have in mind, including insurance and the running costs.

Accessories for an electric scooter and e-motorbike – top box, cases and custom work

A top box or a set of cases turns the e-scooter into an everyday commuter. Add a windscreen, tyres and spare parts – we order accessories to match your electric scooter. We will also advise you on what is permitted when it comes to converting or tuning an electric motorcycle.

Used electric scooter, second hand e-motorbike and demo models

Are you looking for a used electric scooter or a second hand e-motorbike? Our stock of electric used bikes changes constantly. Tell us which model you are after – we will let you know as soon as a matching e-scooter, electric motorcycle or demo machine arrives.

Running costs of an electric motorcycle

An electric motorcycle has no oil changes and far fewer wearing parts than a combustion engine. That noticeably lowers running costs – which makes an e-scooter particularly interesting for anyone riding a lot in city traffic, where a petrol engine uses the most.

You will find the current prices and the availability of every electric model in the vehicle list on this page – it is updated continuously.

Before you buy, a sober comparison with a combustion engine pays off: purchase price, fuel or electricity, insurance, road tax and servicing together make up the calculation that counts. Electric models are often more expensive to buy and cheaper to run – how quickly that balances out depends entirely on your annual mileage. We will work it through for your chosen model, without sugar-coating it.

If you would like to spread the purchase, we offer financing and leasing. All prices quoted are non-binding and price changes remain reserved at all times.

And as with every two-wheeler: the decision is made in the saddle, not on the spec sheet. Let us know in advance and your preferred model will be ready – for a test ride we charge a contribution towards costs, which we credit against a purchase.
