The 1970s Suzuki VanVan has been "reborn" as the e-VanVan electric motorcycle.

The legendary Suzuki VanVan motorcycle from the 1970s has recently been unexpectedly reborn as a stylish electric vehicle called the e-VanVan.

The Japan Mobility Show 2025 (starting October 30th) at Tokyo Big Sight is expected to be an event where automakers showcase their technological prowess and introduce new products, and Suzuki is no exception. The latest information indicates that Suzuki will unveil a range of new products, including an electric motorcycle called the e-VanVan.

The Suzuki e-VanVan electric motorcycle is inspired by the Suzuki VanVan model (available in two versions, VanVan 125 and VanVan 200), which was very popular in the 1970s. The e-VanVan retains the spirit of the original VanVan line with a retro yet modern design, creating a unique and easily recognizable appearance.

The retro style is still present in every detail, but it has been refined to suit contemporary aesthetic trends, resulting in an overall look that is both familiar and fresh. Suzuki states that this electric vehicle was developed with power equivalent to a 125cc motorcycle.

More than just a means of transportation, the e-VanVan is a lifestyle statement. Its body design allows for user personalization, such as applying stickers, adding accessories, or decorating to their liking, so that the vehicle clearly reflects the owner's personality.

With its sturdy frame and comfortable driving position, the e-VanVan is suitable for both everyday urban use and adventurous retro-style road trips.

Suzuki emphasizes that, although the e-VanVan is currently just a concept model, the company's goal is to revive the "joy of riding" feeling that was once associated with gasoline-powered motorcycles, and to transfer that spirit to the electric vehicle line.

While most electric motorcycles today prioritize minimalism, fuel efficiency, and functionality, Suzuki has chosen a different path: creating an EV with a stylish and distinctive personality, satisfying those who love motorcycles and adventure.

The vehicle measures 1,810mm in length, 825mm in width, and 1,050mm in height. This model was tested with a model approximately 175cm tall, showing it to be slightly larger than the VanVan 90 (1971) but somewhat smaller than the VanVan 125 (1972).

With its centrally located battery pack, wide tires (130/80-12 front and rear), and cute design, this model promises to be a standout choice for urban commuting, going to school, or working every day.

Details such as telescopic front forks, dual-spring rear suspension, disc brakes front and rear, and an ABS anti-lock braking system on the front wheel all contribute to making this a practical bike ready for long-distance adventures.

Although Suzuki hasn't revealed all the specifications, the company says the e-VanVan's power is equivalent to a 125cc gasoline-powered motorcycle. It's clear that the Suzuki e-VanVan is not just a concept model, but also has the potential to become a real product in the future.
