Kawasaki Ninja electric, Z electric bikes to go on sale in 2023

Kawasaki has showcased its upcoming electric bikes at the EICMA 2022 show.

The Japanese brand took the wraps off a number of bikes at EICMA 2022, yesterday. As per the company, it will roll out the Ninja electric bike and Z electric bike in global markets next year, which are officially called the Ninja BEV and Z BEV, respectively. Both the Ninja BEV and Z BEV electric bikes will be available for purchase in 2023.  

These bikes appear to have been inspired by the Z400 and the Ninja 400. According to the brand, these bikes will abide by the A1 requirements. Moreover, they will be marketed as entry-level electric performance bikes and will share the same battery with a capacity of up to 3.0 kWh.

The styling of these models will remind you of the small-capacity ICE models sold by the firm in the international market. Kawasaki is planning to make the Z BEV available in Europe sometime next year. The Ninja BEV, on the other hand, is currently a prototype, but there is a probability that it might also be on sale along with the Z BEV. The Japanese brand is confident that these new entrants will be a tough competitor in the electric segment. However, it's unlikely that these bikes will make their debut in India anytime soon.
