Honda Patents WN7 Electric Motorcycle Design in India

The filing appears to protect design rights, not confirm an India launch.

Overview

  • Honda has filed a design patent for the WN7 electric motorcycle in India, as reported by Autocar India.
  • The WN7 is Honda’s first full-size electric bike and debuted in production form at EICMA 2025 with a UK price of £12,999.
  • It uses a 9.3 kWh fixed battery and offers two motor options rated at 11.2 kW and 50 kW, with 100 Nm of torque in both tunes.
  • Charging supports standard Type 2 plugs and quicker CCS2 car chargers, and features include a 5-inch TFT with RoadSync, four ride modes, and all-LED lighting.
  • Autocar India says the patent is routine IP protection and a local launch is unlikely, while Times Now suggests the filing could let Honda gauge India’s premium EV bike market.
