Honda V3R 900 E-Compressor: electric supercharger heads to production

At EICMA, Honda showed the V3R 900 E-Compressor in near-production form. It pairs a 900 cc V-type three-cylinder with an electronically controlled compressor, which Honda calls a world first on a motorcycle. The promise for riders is supercharging with no lag.

Honda says the output should approximate that of a 1200 cc engine. The bike has an asymmetrical design, and its fuel tank, exhaust pipes and muffler are made of titanium.

The updated Honda RoadSync system brings a more intuitive HMI and AI-powered voice control. Honda has not yet released detailed technical data.

• Engine — 900 cc, V3, electric compressor
