Honda unveils RN0 premium electric mountain bike, developed with ROTWILD, at EICMA in Milan
By Eve
Honda presented its first premium electric mountain bike, the RN0, at EICMA 2026 in Milan, as reported by Electrek. It was developed with German e-bike maker ROTWILD and has a carbon fibre monocoque frame, weighs about 24 kg and uses a new 2.3 kg Shimano drive unit rated at 750 W peak power and up to 100 Nm of torque. The battery is 720 Wh, and the bike has 160 mm FOX suspension travel, a 29 inch front wheel and a 27.5 inch rear wheel.
Why it matters
This is a minor item for charging procurement, since the source gives no charging specifications beyond the 720 Wh battery capacity. It does show a major motorcycle OEM moving into premium light electric mobility, which could matter to operators of leisure and destination sites where e-bike charging is an amenity.

Honda shows EV Outlier Concept electric motorcycle at EICMA in Milan
Honda displayed its EV Outlier Concept at EICMA in Milan, having first debuted it at last year's Japan Mobility Show. The concept uses motors inside both wheels for all-wheel drive, with the battery housed in a large central body and the rider seated extremely low behind it. Honda says it looks toward the future of electric motorcycles beyond 2030, and the report comes from a hands-on look at the show.
Why it matters
This is a design concept rather than a production model, so it signals Honda's long-term thinking on electric two-wheelers rather than near-term charging demand. Procurement and CPO teams should treat it as a competitive-landscape marker, with no confirmed charging specifications in the source.
