Multiple batteries can of course be used together to power a single vehicle, offering more capacity and thus longer range. That’s because the swappable battery standard that the Big Four have landed on isn’t very large at all, and instead looks like a blue filter applied to Gogoro’s 1.7 kWh swappable electric scooter batteries. It appears the latter part might have been right, but the “motorcycle” part of electric motorcycle batteries seems to have been more or less replaced with “scooter” in this case. The Big Four have supposedly been working on this big roll out for quite some time we first heard about their ambitions for a swappable electric motorcycle battery standard all the way back in 2019.īack then, it sounded like they were developing something large enough to power mid-size electric motorcycles and that could be standardized across manufacturers. But what Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki and Kawasaki haven’t come right out and said is that instead of the highly anticipated innovative new motorcycle battery standard, it’s looking a lot like a blue version of Gogoro. Japan’s heavyweight motorcycle manufacturers known as the Big Four have unveiled a new electric motorbike battery swapping program called Gachaco.
