Kawasaki Electric Motorcycle ‘Endeavour’ Confirmed: Currently Under Development

Kawasaki has released a number of short videos confirming the development of their all-new all-electric motorcycle. The new all-electric motorcycle will be called the 'Endeavour' and is said to have been in development for close to a year now.

The company confirmed the news regarding the development of an electric motorcycle at the 2019 EICMA. However, Kawasaki has recently released a number of teaser videos, giving us a first glimpse of the Endeavour electric motorcycle.

As per reports and the videos from Kawasaki, the new Endeavour electric motorcycle will be a fully-faired model, with an aggressive design and committed riding position. The electric motorcycle will also receive a host of equipment and features. This includes LED headlamps, LED tail lights, LED DRLs, multiple electronic assists and multiple riding modes; among a host of others.

However, the highlight of the upcoming Kawasaki electric motorcycle will be its multi-gear transmission unit. The Kawasaki Endeavour electric bike will not feature a conventional single-speed transmission as seen on most EVs. However, the powertrain of the motorcycle will be mated to a four-speed manual gearbox. This will give the rider to better connect with the machine, while also being able to extract every bit of performance from the motorcycle as well.

The motorcycle will definitely be offered with fast-charging technology, although removable batteries are something which is yet to be confirmed.
