Kawasaki has become one of the first bike makers to announce that it is planning to go all-electric with all major models for developed countries by 2035. The Japanese bikemaker has now commenced its ambitious journey by introducing a hybrid sports bike prototype at a presentation in Japan. The hybrid sports bike that was showcased is a fusion of a conventional ICE with a small EV motor.
by how the prototype looks, it shouldn’t be long before we will get to see a full-fledged production version of the proposed sports bike. Kawasaki has been successful in its attempt of packing an electric battery by downsizing the engine in order to fit a battery in what appears to be a frame sourced from a Kawasaki Ninja 400 mule.
To top up the hybrid battery, the system can utilize regenerative systems. The Japanese bikemaker has placed a 48V pack under the seat. It works in tandem with a parallel-twin engine, the exact displacement of which hasn’t been revealed yet. The hybrid sports bike can run on the full-electric mode in the city limits while out on the highway, the hybrid system will operate both the electric motor and the combustion engine.
Another noteworthy addition to this system is a semi-automatic transmission. Kawasaki has been working on its pure-electric prototype, named the Endeavour. While the new hybrid tech by Kawasaki isn’t classed as zero emissions in average consumption, it can be driven in pure EV mode at slow speeds.
