With 30% of all motor vehicles in Barcelona being motorcycles, Japanese automaker Honda has begun testing in Spain for its EV-neo, an entirely electric scooter. The company will be leasing 18 EV-neos to the Barcelona City Council in order to monitor and examine how the vehicles perform in terms of riding distance, charging time and load conditions.

The EV-neo isn’t exactly meant to be a car or motorcycle replacement as it has a range of only 21 miles driving at 18 mph, but it would be a great way to travel locally. The range on the vehicle might not be as lengthy as many would hope, but EV-neo comes with a portable rapid charger that is capable of recharging the batteries to full in only 30 minutes.

Although the scooter has already been leased in Japan in April, the company may be testing to see if the EV-neo has a market elsewhere. No plans on selling the electric scooter over in the U.S. or Europe has been announced, but the company expects to sell close to 1,000 EV-neos in Japan and may likely sell them elsewhere depending on how these tests go. The base price for the EV-neo starts out at approximately $5,633 U.S. dollars.
