Honda unveils second all-electric scooter for European market
Honda has unveiled its second all-electric scooter in Europe with the new CUV e, as well as introducing an updated RoadSync App.
Honda’s electric two-wheel range has been given an update with the all-new CUV e, which is the company’s second all-electric scooter landing in the European market.
Building on the 2023 EM1 e model, the new CUV e offers more range, more performance and equipment as standard, while a new RoadSync Duo App has been introduced on the electric scooter.
The new app is an EV-specific evolution of Honda’s standard Roadsync app, and it works through a wide seven-inch TFT screen. Its Over The Air (OTA) system update makes sure riders can optimise the latest generation operating system.
The new model is powered by a pair of removable Honda Mobile Power Pack batteries, giving it a range of over 70km (around 43 miles). A 6kW (8bhp) side-mounted E-Drive motor produces a claimed 16.2Ib ft of torque, with Honda claiming its “acceleration and top speed is comparable to traditional 125cc Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) scooters.” The claimed top speed is 83km/h (51mph).
The new CUV e features a traditional steel underbone frame, which houses 26mm telescopic forks up front and a mono rear shock. 12-inch wheels are found front and back.
The design features LED front and rear lighting set-up, while reverse assist is fitted as standard to help manoeuvring in and out of tight spaces. The bike’s USB-C charging port means charging your devices can be done at all times. There’s also switch gear and Smart Key functionalities.
From there, a small inner pocket in the fairing, combined with space under the seat provides additional storage options, which can be boosted through a range of Honda official top boxes and other accessories. The seat height comes in at 760mm while ground clearance is set at 145mm.
The new 2025 model comes in three colours which are Pearl Jubilee White, Matte Gunpowder Black Metallic and Premium Silver Metallic. Availability and price is not yet known at the time of this writing.
