本田效仿几乎所有其他主要汽车制造商的做法，推出了首款电动自行车本田 e-MTB 概念车。

Honda is taking a page out of just about every other major automotive manufacturer’s playbook by debuting its first electric bicycle, the Honda e-MTB Concept.

该自行车刚刚在东京举行的日本移动展上亮相，与其他领先的日本摩托车公司和汽车制造商一起首次亮相。

The bike was just shown off at the Japan Mobility Show in Tokyo, where it joined several other futuristic and/or brand-widening debuts from other leading Japanese motorcycle companies and automakers.

本田 e-MTB 概念车看起来更像是一辆下坡电动自行车，并保持了相当现实的设计。与一些相当牵强的电动自行车概念不同，本田的电动自行车概念实际上看起来可以投入生产。这是最近电动自行车概念的一个有前途的趋势，表明其中一些设计有一天可能会走向生产。

The Honda e-MTB Concept looks more like a downhill electric bike and maintains a fairly realistic design. Unlike some e-bike concepts that are fairly far-fetched, Honda’s actually looks like something that could reach production. It’s a promising trend in e-bike concepts lately, showing that some of these designs could one day see a path toward production.

据报道，这款电动自行车使用现有的博泽中置电机，这意味着本田不必重新发明车轮（抱歉，我支持它）。通过使用现有的电动自行车组件，本田可以更多地关注自行车的整体外观和结构设计，将自行车零件留给已经生产数十年的公司。

The e-bike reportedly uses an existing Brose mid-drive motor, meaning Honda didn’t have to reinvent the wheel (sorry, I stand by it). By using existing e-bike components, Honda could focus more on the bike’s overall appearance and structural design, leaving the bike parts to the companies that have already been producing them for decades.

这款全悬架电动自行车采用 SRAM Eagle AXS 传动系统、Shimano 液压盘式制动器、Fox 前后悬架、RockShox Reverb 升降座杆、DT Swiss XM 1700 车轮和 Maxxis Minion DHF 轮胎。

The full-suspension e-bike uses a SRAM Eagle AXS drivetrain, Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, Fox suspension in the front and rear, a RockShox Reverb dropper seat post, DT Swiss XM 1700 wheels, and Maxxis Minion DHF tires.

对于本田来说，目标是将摩托车和自行车体验结合到一个可以应对山区地形的产品中。

For Honda, the goal was to combine motorcycle and bicycle experiences in a single product that could handle mountainous terrain.

正如该公司所解释的：

As the company explained:

“本田 e-MTB 概念车扩展了本质上的移动领域。通过电动助力轻松上坡，这款自行车提供了结合摩托车乐趣和山地自行车乐趣的全新骑行体验。它的开发是为了让任何人都能更自由地享受山路骑行。”

“The Honda e-MTB Concept expands the field of mobility in nature. Easily going uphill with electric assistance, this bike offers a new riding experience that combines the fun of motorcycles and fun of a mountain bike. It is being developed to enable anyone to enjoy riding mountainous trails more freely.”

本田并不是第一家探索电动自行车作为品牌扩张潜在途径的汽车制造商或摩托车制造商。

Honda is far from the first automaker or motorcycle manufacturer to explore electric bicycles as a potential avenue for brand expansion.

其中最著名的例子包括哈雷戴维森 (Harley-Davidson) 通过 Serial 1 进军电动自行车领域、保时捷通过收购Greyp 和 Fazua 等公司以及自己的保时捷电动自行车而向电动自行车领域进行重大扩张，以及标致 (Peugeot) 的广泛电动自行车系列。

Some of the most famous includes Harley-Davidson’s e-bike foray with Serial 1, Porsche’s major expansion into e-bikes with the purchase of companies like Greyp and Fazua as well as its own Porsche e-bikes, and Peugeot’s wide line of electric bikes.

通用汽车还内部开发了一款电动自行车，但该公司在其商业化之前就将其取消了。

GM also developed an electric bike in-house, though the company killed it off before it reached commercialization.

悍马最近试图将其品牌扩展到电动自行车领域，吉普也是如此。

HUMMER has tried to expand its brand into e-bikes lately, as has Jeep.

随着电动自行车市场的持续增长，越来越多的汽车制造商将其视为扩大市场并将更多人纳入其交通生态系统的有利可图的方式。

As the e-bike market continues to grow, more automakers are seeing it as a lucrative way to expand their market and bring more people into their transportation ecosystem.
