Honda has unveiled two electric motorcycle concept models, ‘EV Fun Concept’ and the ‘EV Urban Concept’ at EICMA 2024 in Milan, Italy. 
This comes on the back of a news circulating in the Indian media space about the Japanese two-wheeler major in advanced stages of launching a stylish and technologically advanced electric scooter in India by the end of this fiscal or in early 2025 calendar year. 
Talking about the two electric motorcycle concepts, the ‘EV Fun Concept’ is Honda’s first electric sports model and will be commercial made available in 2025. 
Developed as a next-generation electric motorcycle that offers a new sensation of quiet riding and an emotional feeling that is unique to electric motorcycles, the ‘EV Fun Concept’ leverages the Japanese automakers’ long-developed motorcycle technologies to put-together a machine that is quiet, vibration-free, slim and easy-to-manage. 
The last bit could be attributed to the chassis package realised by a fixed battery. The charging system for the concept e-motorcycle was developed by applying the company’s know-how and technologies cultivated in its automobiles and power products. The battery is compatible with the CCS2 quick charger and has been developed to optimise the balance between light weight and quick charging performance. The range the motorcycle will offer will be over 100 km for a single charge. 
The EV Urban Concept is an electric model that embodies Honda’s vision of urban electric mobility with its function-focused design, connected technologies and in-house developed battery pack.
The concept e-motorcycle embodies the Japanese automaker’s vision of what urban electric mobility should be like. It underscores a vision of near-future mobility that cooperates and resonates with people and society through its essential and sophisticated styling, intuitive human-machine interface (HMI), and new experiences created by the fusion of software and hardware. 
Making strong progress toward its plan to introduce 30 electric models globally by 2030, Honda is accelerating its efforts to develop a full lineup of electric motorcycles to meet the diversifying needs of customers and promote the development of a wide variety of electric vehicles. 
The company is expanding its global market share in the field of electric motorcycles.

India Bike Week (IBW), presented by Gulf Syntrac, has shifted its 2025 venue from Goa to Panchgani, Maharashtra. The move, executed due to the rescheduling of Zilla Parishad elections in Goa to the IBW dates, means riders will now converge in the Deccan hills on 19^th and 20^th December 2025.

IBW 2025 will transform Panchgani into a high-altitude playground for riders, featuring new trails, cooler winds, bonfire nights, camping and after-parties. The edition promises IBW’s line-up yet, offering motorcycling experiences across multiple terrains – from hill climbs and mud trails to manufacturer-led road tests.

Martin Da Costa, Founder and CEO, Seventy Event Media Group, said, “As we celebrate 12 years of India Bike Week, it’s incredible to witness how this festival has grown into one of the world’s most spirited motorcycling gatherings. Although circumstances pushed us to shift venues this year, our ethos remains the same – community, adventure, and the freedom to explore. Panchgani offers us a fresh canvas and IBW 2025 is shaping up to be our most exciting edition yet.”

IBW’s 12th edition includes showcases such as the Endurance Stunt Show by Pol Tarres powered by Gulf Syntrac, the Wheelie Experience by Aprilia and India’s Test Ride Arena featuring the majority of India’s premium motorcycle line-up, now including a showcase by the Gulf TrackHouse MotoGP Team.

Over 10 riding experiences await, from the Pulsar Stunt School to a dedicated Kids’ Mini Moto Track by Vida’s Dirt-E K3, along with masterclasses led by expert creators and overlanders.

Competitive racing will feature on FMSCI-backed tracks such as the IBW Hill Climb by Reise Moto and Harley-Davidson Flat Track Race.

The Skoda Kodiaq All-Wheel Drive Track makes its debut, offering driving and off-road challenges.

Presented by Carlsberg Elephant Strong Soda, the festival’s music line-up includes performances by King, Karan Kanchan, Sugga Honey, along with Harley-Davidson Rock Riders’ Music featuring Antariksh.

The BIG TRIP presented by Gulf Syntrac returns with a compelling line-up. Twelve speakers – including global overlanding legends Simon & Lisa Thomas, Elspeth Beard, Zubin Jaafar and storytellers Kshitij Saxena, Gautham AG, Candida Louis and Maral Yazarloo – will bring narratives of grit, resilience and exploration.

The Ladakh Tent presented by Carlsberg Elephant Strong Soda hosts discussions, including ‘India on Two Wheels,’ a Storytellers Roundtable, ‘RTW 101,’ and ‘Women in Motorsports.’
