Honda to lease electric motorcycle in Japan

Honda Motor Co. is rolling out a small, scooter-type electric motorbike, after having put an earlier model back in the shed over a decade ago. Honda said it will be leasing the EV-neo electric motorcycle in Japan in December, but has no plans to sell it at the moment. The EV-neo will be the company’s second electric motorcycle following its first model launched in 1994. (April 13, 2010)
