Honda is making a whole different type of truck or commercial van. It’s the Honda Fastport eQuad. It’s a short-range delivery vehicle, and you ride it like a bicycle. I get to drive it or ride it on a test track at the 2026 New York International Auto Show and you can too. It has some impressive specs. Check it out. Let’s dig in!
Honda is using their know-how to offer a more affordable and dependable delivery or maintenance vehicle for a big city, your campus or ranch. It has a capable suspension system that is closely related to the Honda off-road vehicle suspension. It has a handlebar with front and rear hydraulic brakes. Most importantly it has a pedal-by-wire power system that offers around 4 horsepower and around 20 miles of driving range along with up to 650 pounds of payload capacity. It has swappable modular batteries, it can really have unlimited driving range.
It has a windshield, a windshield wiper, front/rear and blinker lights. The eQuad itself weighs close to 400 lbs without a driver. It can carry 650 lbs of payload and/or tow a small trailer. This is very useful for big city deliveries, but it has many other potential uses. If you can imagine it, you can do it. I can see a golf course maintenance team using a vehicle like this. It could be a small food/drinks truck. It can a gardener’s vehicle. It can be used on a college campus or a large corporate campus.
The Fastport eQuad is meant to be sold to large company fleets. This is why it does not have a specific price. Honda says if you equip it similar to what you see here – it could cost in the $20,000+ range. It may be pricey on first glance, but consider that it could replace a commercial van or truck that is twice the cost.
