Two-wheeler majors Honda and Yamaha have joined hands to begin evaluation testing towards the expansion of the use of electric motorcycles in Saitama City, Japan.
The two companies have partnered with Saitama City’s ‘E-Kizuna Project’ to promote the spread of electric vehicles. This collaborative initiative by the three parties also aims to resolve the issues in areas which are lacking transport accessibility.
The evaluation testing will utilise Honda and Yamaha’s electric technology and Saitama City’s existing infrastructure in order to realise a low-carbon society and verify the extent of improvement in transportation convenience in areas lacking in transport accessibility.
The evaluation testing program marks the first joint initiative between a local government body (which aims for a low-carbon society in which electric vehicles can be used in safety and comfort), and the two motorcycle manufacturers (which aim for the spread of EV motorcycles) targeted at reduction of CO2 emissions and the spread of electric motorcycles.
