Honda Motocompo XL anticipates the future of electromobility

A fragile 80s scooter, the Honda Motocompo is now available in an XL version with an electric motor.

The Honda Motocompo is a true Japanese pop culture icon. Back on the scene, like all the mythical objects of the 80s, he now excites the imagination of some. And, in particular, Allan Williams, who gave birth to the Motocompo XL.

Virtual only, this project anticipates the possible use of Motocompo in a grim future. Dubbed XL in order to better emphasize its dimensions, which are much less measured than originally, this Compo repeats the cubic forms of its master, which he associates with futuristic objects.

Motocompo has beautiful remains

Behind the wheel fairing, as Honda did on their motorcycles in the late 80s, hides an electric motor. It is powered by a battery installed in the center position, the battery under the bust of the pilot, lying for a better grip of the handle, has no brake levers. Forgetting the artist or reflecting a powerful energy recovery system?

The Honda Motocompo XL will never see the light of day, first of all it's a style exercise and an imaginary bubble. But note that the scooter continues to revitalize the field of electric two-wheelers and urban mobility solutions.
