Honda electric scooter equivalent 125 cm3: here is the Cuv e
It is official since EICMA, but it is exhibited at the 2025 two-wheeler show in Lyon. The Honda Cuv-E will land in France very soon. Of a compact template, its announced autonomy of 70 km and a maximum speed of around 80 km/h restricted to urban and peri -urban areas, but it could establish itself as a more serious competitor in the face of a market dominated by the vehicles of the vehicles Chinese manufacturers of brands less well established in France.
On board, the instrumentation is recorded in a 5 -inch TFT screen, which, in its “Roadsync Duo” version is increased up to 7 inches with connected and navigation features. More surprisingly, the scooter is equipped with standard Keyless, and will be able to receive software updates via WiFi!

Under the saddle, there are two Honda Mobile Power Pack batteries which weigh 10 kg each. According to sources, each unit embeds between 1.3 kWh and 1.45 kWh according to its versions, which would authorize Honda more than 70 km of autonomy (WMTC). If this figure is modest, it is in the standard for the segment and its effectiveness is rather based on the double battery system which allows more lively acceleration than on the EM1E (equivalent 50 cm3) which embarked only a battery. Each battery recharges in 3 hours from 0 to 75 % and in 6 hours up to 100 %. Honda also announces an impressive value of 2,500 cycles for the lifespan of its power packs that use lithium-ion technology.

The 6 kW (8.15 hp) Electric Electric Electric is not the most powerful in the 125 cm3 category (limited to 11 kW, 15 hp) that is why Honda is rather its motorization at an equivalent 110 CM3. It drives the rear wheel by a pinema system which limits maintenance without having the disadvantages of the engine integrated into the wheel. 3 driving modes (standard, sport, ECON) make it possible to best adapt the performance to the right handle, even if the power remains modest. To slow down the machine, we find the CBS combined braking with hydraulic control disc braking at the front and a drum controlled by cable at the rear. We regret the absence of ABS, even if it is also rare in competition.

Equipped with a reverse, Keyless, a USB-C socket and 3 driving modes, the Cuv-E may well suit those looking for an electric scooter without a headache in the 125 cm3 segment. The fact remains that the main element to judge the case is the price, and that it is not yet known at the moment.
