Honda Unveils V3R 900 E-Compressor Prototype Powered by New V3 Engine with Electronically Controlled Compressor.
Honda has unveiled the V3R 900 E-Compressor Prototype, featuring a V3 engine with electronically controlled compressor, at EICMA 2025 in Milan, Italy.
The V3R 900 E-Compressor Prototype is being developed as a model proposing new values through Honda’s unique, unprecedented technology, stemming from the development team’s goal to deliver compelling products exceeding customer expectations, aiming to realize the “Joy of free and fun mobility” outlined in Honda’s 2030 Vision.
Developed according to the concept “Non-Rail Roller Coaster,” the V3R 900 E-Compressor Prototype combines the latest technology with Honda’s long-accumulated motorcycle development knowhow, aiming to possess dual characteristics “promised thrills” and “absolute peace of mind.”
The engine layout retains the water-cooled 75-degree V3 unit unveiled at last year’s EICMA show, but this year has a confirmed displacement of 900cc while pursuing a slim and compact form factor. As a world-first* for a motorcycle, it adopts an electronically controlled compressor, allowing precise control of engine boost, delivering high-response torque from low revs. This delivers performance on par with a 1,200cc engine despite its 900cc displacement, while also achieving specifications that enhance environmental efficiency.
The body features asymmetrical side fairings, while the tank emblem debuts the new “Honda Flagship WING” design, which will be gradually introduced on top-tier models starting next year.
The V3R 900 E-Compressor Prototype aims to be a new milestone for Honda’s ongoing challenges, delivering unprecedented riding enjoyment, excitement, and the joy of ownership.
