Kawasaki Hydrogen Engine Motorcycle (Research Vehicle)

On July 20, Kawasaki Motors Ltd., a member of the Kawasaki Heavy Industries Group, conducted the world's first*1 public demonstration run of a hydrogen ICE (internal combustion engine) motorcycle (by a mass-production motorcycle manufacturer) at Suzuka Circuit in Suzuka City, Mie Prefecture, Japan. The hydrogen ICE motorcycle was designed and built as part of research that began in March 2023, with test runs starting this year, culminating in this public demonstration run. Mounted in the machine is a hydrogen engine based on the 998 cm3 In-Line Four Supercharged Engine found in Kawasaki’s Ninja H2 motorcycle, with modifications made to allow direct injection of hydrogen fuel into the cylinders. The motorcycle’s chassis was designed to accommodate hydrogen fuel canisters and a hydrogen fuel supply system on-board. 1: According to Kawasaki Motors (as of July 20, 2024) --- World-class motorcycles, ATVs, utility vehicles, side x side and watercraft vehicles make up a portion of the unique product portfolio that has made Kawasaki a premium performance brand around the world.
