[Moto] Kawasaki will introduce its first hybrid and electric motorcycles in 2025

[#Wittels-]

Kawasaki evidently plans to offer only electric and hybrid motorcycles by 2035. In addition, the brand will begin to explore hydrogen.

 

The famous Japanese brand Kawasaki wants to offer a range of electric and hybrid motorcycles from 2035, at least in markets such as Japan, Europe, the United States, Australia and Canada. In addition, the firm will begin to explore hydrogen internal combustion systems.

That said, the plan will begin to 'catch up' in 2025, with the launch of at least ten electric and hybrid motorcycles, as well as four electrified four-wheel models.

To start this project, the firm wants to develop a new battery technology and enter the world of hydrogen technology, in order to know the viability of this system in motorcycles.

Likewise, the brand confirmed its interest in the field of hydrogen-powered engines, due to the fact that polluting emissions are very low. The main component of exhaust gases are nitrogen oxides and trace amounts of hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and particulates.

With this, the brand confirms its ambitious electrification plan among the most traditional and important motorcycle brands in the world. Well, Honda will launch its first three electric models in 2024, although it has not yet announced whether it will offer an exclusively electric range.

In fact, Yamaha is focused on reducing its carbon footprint by 50% by 2030, and by 90% by 2050, making the majority of its motorcycles electric.

 

 

Regarding the subject, Yasuhiko Hashimoto, president of Kawasaki, announced that: “For motorcycle users, the experience of the sound and vibration of the engine is very important. We want to keep the fun of these bikes in a carbon neutral era. "
