Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki and Kawasaki Roll Out Swappable Electric Motorcycle Batteries, But It's Really Just a Gogoro Competitor

09 Apr 2022 | Abstracted from Electrek

Together with Japanese petroleum company Eneos, the Big Four have now launched a new Battery As A Service (BaaS) for their swappable battery packs. The swapping service, known as Gachaco, also looks like a Gogoro setup in costume.

To be fair, there are several competing battery swapping standards for these small 1-2 kWh battery packs. Kymco has their own system, Silence has a neat wheeled battery system, and Rayvolt even recently showed off their own wheeled swappable battery for electric mopeds starting with the BullX.

But Gogoro has become the de facto standard as it has surpassed a million battery packs produced and is now quickly spreading across Asia's largest motorcycle markets of India, China and Indonesia.
