Honda has introduced its groundbreaking electric forced induction technology in the world's first V3 motorcycle engine, showcased at EICMA in Milan.

If electrics aren't yet ready to take over in the motorcycling world, maybe forced induction could rule the next era. Honda has just dropped a revolutionary large-capacity V3 combustion engine at EICMA,

Forced induction in motorcycles is nothing new, but Honda's latest concept vehicle is going about it in a whole new way. Building on their decades-long legacy of force-fed bikes— say hi, CX650 Turbo — Honda is prototyping an electrically supercharged, V-3 engine — a powerplant designed to put down big power numbers in a compact package.

As it pushes toward more electric cars and trucks, Honda is signaling a future electric motorcycle set to provide "a new emotional experience."

Honda has announced the development of a 75-degree V3 engine for larger-displacement motorcycles, which promises to be both compact and high-performing. Honda says this new water-cooled engine is designed to be compact and designed to deliver high torque even at lower revs thanks to the electric compressor.

It's not that I think Honda is boring, but this certainly isn't the brand's traditional safe play.
