I’m sure I’m not alone in loving how Honda managed to produce an almost identical production e to their concept e, so I hope whoever was running that project is still around within the Honda family, cars to motorcycles?.
Just come back from the NEC motorcycle show and I want to upload a couple of photos of a Honda concept electric motorcycle, it was roped off so couldn’t get any closer.

Electric mopeds are useful for short trips, but electric motorbikes face challenges. High prices and the lack of fast charging make them less appealing, as seen with brands like Livewire, Energica, and Verge.

To be fair, while the e carried over the basic design concepts and features of the prototype car, to a trained set of eyes the production car looks nothing like the concept that was initially revealed.

Still a fantastic design though.

In fact the Honda e prototype was first. They made the Urban EV Concept after the Honda e prototype. Showing the Urban EV concept to the public at IAA Frankfurt in September 2017 the final design for the Honda e was already finished.
