This editorial shortlist highlights 10 distinct ideas shown at Honda exhibits; it is not an official Honda ranking, and concept status alone does not mean a model reached production.
How this shortlist is selected
The entries are ordered to show the variety of Honda’s documented concept work: the distinctiveness of each design or engineering idea, the clarity of its stated intended use, and the range of roles represented. Honda’s exhibit descriptions establish what a concept explored at a particular show, not its production availability or independently verified performance. Honda’s 2015 exhibit announcement, for example, separates concept models from planned and production models in its lists (Honda, 2015 Tokyo Motor Show exhibit announcement).
10 Honda concept motorcycles
1. Honda Riding Assist-e (2017): low-speed balance assistance
This battery-electric concept put rider assistance at the center of its design. Honda said it “automatically balances itself at very low speeds, reducing rider load.” The idea is most relevant when a motorcycle is moving slowly, where balance can demand attention from the rider; the exhibit announcement does not establish broader autonomous riding capability or independently tested results (Honda, 2017 exhibit announcement).
2. NEOWING (2015): hybrid power and three wheels
NEOWING explored a sport-oriented three-wheeler with a hybrid arrangement: a horizontally opposed four-cylinder gasoline engine paired with electric motors. Honda described an intended cornering feel comparable to a large motorcycle while also emphasizing low-speed stability. The Tokyo Motor Show guide describes a front linkage and a roll-mitigation actuator, making this the shortlist’s clearest combination of unusual chassis layout and hybrid propulsion. These are concept aims and design features, not road-test findings (Honda, 2015 exhibit announcement; Tokyo Motor Show guide, 2015).

3. EV-Cub Concept (2015): electric Super Cub-style commuting
EV-Cub carried the accessible, short-distance commuting idea associated with the Super Cub into an electric concept. Honda described a battery placed low in the vehicle, designed to be removable and chargeable from a standard home outlet. Those details point to everyday charging convenience; the cited exhibit descriptions do not provide a comparable range or charging-time figure (Honda, 2015 exhibit announcement; Tokyo Motor Show guide, 2015).
4. Light Weight Super Sports Concept (2015): a lighter sport-bike direction
Honda presented this as a next-generation lightweight sport concept. Its description emphasized a long nose, low crouching position and sharp, planar bodywork. The exhibit material establishes a design direction rather than a production specification: it does not provide a weight, engine size or performance figure for this concept (Honda, 2015 exhibit announcement; Tokyo Motor Show guide, 2015).
Rank #2

5. CT125 (2019): Super Cub-family trekking concept
Honda’s 2019 Tokyo Motor Show guide presented CT125 as a Super Cub-family concept shaped with off-road running in mind, alongside everyday casual use. The described practical details included a high-mounted exhaust and a large rear carrier. This entry refers specifically to the 2019 exhibit concept; the cited source does not establish its relationship to, or specifications for, any later production CT125 (Tokyo Motor Show guide, 2019).
6. Concept CB (2015): a modern take on traditional CB styling
Concept CB explored a CB1100-based design that paired traditional air-cooled styling with modern touches. Honda’s description called out LED lighting, a round headlight, a shortened muffler and a refined fuel-tank form. Its place on this list is as a retro-design study, not evidence that every detail became a production feature (Tokyo Motor Show guide, 2015).
Rank #3
- This plastic model requires assembly and painting. Adhesives, tools, paints, etc., sold separately
- 1/12 scale unpainted plastic model assembly kit
- Size when completed: Total length approx. 7.0 inches (178
- Realistically reproduces a uniform form consisting of flowing lines
- Marking: Wolf Silver Metallic (Blue Stripe) *Choose from 4 specifications with 3 types of markings
7. Benly e: (2019): quiet electric utility for commercial use
Benly e: was an electric commercial commuter concept built around Honda Mobile Power Pack batteries. Honda said electrification could improve environmental performance and quietness while retaining the utility needed for commercial vehicles. The cited exhibit material does not supply a standalone range, payload or charging-time figure (Tokyo Motor Show guide, 2019).
8. GYRO e: (2019): another electric business-use direction
GYRO e: appeared alongside Benly e: in Honda’s 2019 Tokyo Motor Show guide as a business-use electric commuter concept. Its inclusion broadens the shortlist beyond personal commuting and sport toward work and delivery applications. The cited passage provides no detailed standalone specification, so a more precise technical comparison with Benly e: is not established there (Tokyo Motor Show guide, 2019).

9. Super Cub Concept (2015): updated lines with a conventional engine
This fuel-powered concept reworked the original Super Cub’s accessible form with simpler, more refined lines. It provides a useful contrast with the electric EV-Cub: both address the Cub’s commuting tradition, but the Super Cub Concept was described with a conventional high-fuel-economy engine, while EV-Cub explored short-distance electric commuting. The cited material does not give directly comparable economy or range figures (Tokyo Motor Show guide, 2015).
10. EV Urban Concept (2025): a recent electric-concept listing
Honda’s Japan Mobility Show 2025 motorcycle exhibit table lists the EV Urban Concept, making it the newest electric entry in this shortlist. The table supplies little description beyond the name, so its intended use, layout and technical details should not be inferred from the listing (Honda, Japan Mobility Show 2025 exhibit overview).

What the concepts show about Honda’s design directions
| Concept | Exhibit-era intended use | Propulsion or notable idea |
|---|---|---|
| Riding Assist-e | Not stated in the cited exhibit description | Battery-electric; Honda-described low-speed self-balancing |
| NEOWING | Sport riding | Hybrid gasoline-electric power; three wheels and front linkage |
| EV-Cub | Short-distance commuting | Electric; low, removable battery chargeable from a standard home outlet |
| Light Weight Super Sports Concept | Sport riding | Not stated in the cited exhibit description |
| CT125 | Trekking and casual everyday use | Not stated in the cited exhibit description; high-mounted exhaust and large rear carrier |
| Concept CB | Not stated in the cited exhibit description | CB1100-based design study; traditional air-cooled styling with LEDs |
| Benly e: | Commercial use | Electric; Honda Mobile Power Pack batteries |
| GYRO e: | Business use | Electric concept; detailed standalone specification not stated in the cited passage |
| Super Cub Concept | Commuting | Conventional high-fuel-economy engine |
| EV Urban Concept | Not stated in Honda’s exhibit table | Listed as an electric concept; further details not stated in the table |
Across the exhibits, Honda explored commuting, sport riding, trekking and commercial work rather than a single definition of a future motorcycle. The concepts also vary in how much the sources reveal: NEOWING and EV-Cub have described engineering ideas, while the 2025 EV Urban Concept entry is only lightly detailed. Honda’s 2025 table also lists an unnamed “Concept model for an electric motorcycle model”; it is not included as a separate entry because the listing does not provide enough identifying detail to distinguish it confidently from other concepts (Honda, Japan Mobility Show 2025 exhibit overview).
