- Honda and Yamaha announced plans for Honda to manufacture some electric scooters for Yamaha in the Japanese market.
- The scooters will be based on the existing EM1 e: and Benly e: and will use the Honda Mobile Power Pack e: battery and charging ecosystem.
- This could have far-reaching implications because it directly relies on a single swappable battery standard across brands, instead of each brand having its own bespoke battery and charger system.
You have to hand it to Honda and Yamaha.
