Honda confirms Super Cub model will not disappear

About two weeks ago, several Japanese media outlets reported that Honda would terminate the production of motorcycles with a displacement of 50 cc and below by May 2025.

As a result, it also sparked some commotion in the Land of the Rising Sun, as some claimed that the production of the Super Cub model would also be completely discontinued.

In a latest report by Young Machine, only the production of the 50 cc version of the Super Cub model will be affected.

 

 

Meanwhile, production for the 110 cc and 125 cc versions of the Super Cub model will continue as usual.

According to Honda’s motorcycle business unit leader, Minoru Kato, he also confirmed that they are currently developing a new Super Cub model that can meet stricter emission standards as a replacement for the 50 cc Super Cub model.

In accordance with the new framework expected to be implemented by November 2025, moped license holders (with a limit of 50 cc) will be allowed to ride motorcycles with a displacement of 125 cc and below, provided that the power output of the model is limited to only 4 kW (5.4 hp).

This is the clear look of WMOTO ‘Supermoped’, launching soon

IN recent weeks, the ‘spy shots’ of a ‘supermoped’ motorcycle undergoing road testing on the North-South Expressway (PLUS) have been widely circulated on social media.

The latest development comes from Najwa Syafiqah’s Facebook account, who successfully captured a clear image of the motorcycle at a gas station in Gopeng, Perak.

Alleged to be the latest ‘supermoped’ from WMOTO, the recent image reveals several intriguing features. Firstly, the motorcycle boasts full LED lighting, including front lights seemingly inspired by the Ducati Panigale V4.

The front lights are also equipped with daytime running lights (DRL). The panel meter is of the full digital type, displaying comprehensive information such as fuel level, engine temperature, battery voltage, odometer reading, time, and RPM.

A closer look at the rim indicates the presence of an ABS sensor, suggesting the incorporation of an ABS safety system, although it is uncertain whether it is a single or dual-channel ABS.

Other noticeable features include axial front brakes with single disc brakes at the front and rear, as well as telescopic forks for the torque. The transmission is of the manual type, but the number of gears available remains unconfirmed.
