Honda Australia has introduced a subscription plan for its WN7 electric motorcycle at roughly A$400 a month, bundling the bike, registration and insurance with no lock-in contract and two weeks' notice to cancel. The WN7 delivers 67bhp and 87 miles of range and is priced at £12,999 in the UK, with the subscription aimed at riders wary of battery depreciation.

The subscription format itself neatly dodges electric bikes' biggest weakness. It converts the risk of owning something whose battery tech keeps evolving into a monthly line item. Compared with old-school installment plans, the psychological barrier drops a lot. This is the kind of idea that gets me.

Feels basically like a rental bike when you think about it.

Two weeks' notice to cancel makes it feel easy to just try.

Not worrying about battery obsolescence should help EV adoption.

87 miles of range says commuter, not really a touring bike.

A$400 a month all-in is a surprisingly reasonable number.

Buying outright still ends up cheaper in a lot of cases though.
