This convenient mode assists with manoeuvring in a parking lot. When engaged, opening the throttle moves the bike forward at walking speed. Closing the throttle past the “zero” point moves the bike in reverse.
Depending on the drive mode, riders can experience full automatic (EV Mode), manual button-shift (SPORTHYBRID), or rider’s preference (ECO-HYBRID).
Until now many vehicles with ICE and EV power have not been able to operate independently; either only EV or only ICE. Kawasaki's strong hybrid technology means the motorcycle can be operated as EV only, ICE only or a combination of the two.
The packaging of the power train is very efficient. The new 451cc engine has been adapted to offer either fully automatic or manually selectable gears while the EV motor (which is water-cooled) sits behind the twin cylinders of the ICE motor creating a compact overall package aiding weight distribution.
Until now many vehicles with ICE and EV power have not been able to operate independently; either only EV or only ICE. Kawasaki's strong hybrid technology means the motorcycle can be operated as EV only, ICE only or a combination of the two.
Having three drive modes to choose from (SPORTHYBRID, ECO-HYBRID, and low-speed short-distance EV) offers the versatility to adapt to wide range of riding situations. Each mode’s riding character is distinct, giving riders a number of stimulating elements to explore.
In ECO-HYBRID mode when the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the engine turns off to conserve fuel.
With a compact traction motor mounted behind the cylinder bank of a 451 cm3 Parallel Twin internal combustion engine, the strong hybrid power unit is the first of its kind in a motorcycle. Working together, the ICE and traction motor complement each other to produce a rider-friendly character with strong low mid torque. * Strong hybrid systems combine an internal combustion engine (ICE) with an electric motor for powerful riding, and because of their large battery capacity they are able to run on electricity alone.The Ninja 7 Hybrid’s EV Mode may be helpful for certain situations where quiet riding is appropriate, such as in residential areas or in parking garages. Speed and range are limited.
Because the battery does not need to be charged regularly—it is charged while riding—this allows the rider to focus on the ride ahead.
From the relaxed, sporty riding position that caters to a wide range of riders, to the attentive layout of the switchgear, all aspects of the Ninja 7 Hybrid’s rider interface were designed to be intuitive and confidence inspiring.
Depending on the mode selected, the machine will pull away using only EV power and switch to ICE as the speed rises - this is automatic and requires no rider intervention.
Depending on the drive mode, riders can experience full automatic (EV Mode), manual button-shift (SPORTHYBRID), or rider’s preference (ECO-HYBRID).
Kawasaki’s unique, electronically controlled 6-speed transmission uses proprietary logic to smoothly shift gears and operate the clutch. With actuation of the gears and the hydraulic clutch carried out by the bike, the rider can focus on throttle control.
For zero emission zones EV-only operation is possible. As the charge of the lithium-Ion battery is near depleted the ICE motor is able to cut in and generate electric current to charge the battery pack.
Orthodox sport motorcycle chassis design thinking was used to carefully arrange all the components of the hybrid power unit (ICE, traction motor, battery pack, ISG) in a lightweight trellis frame to achieve the light, nimble handling that Kawasaki sport motorcycles are known for.

Silver and Lime Green with a semi-matte finish, the Ninja 7 Hybrid’s colour & graphics contribute a fresh, futuristic image for Kawasaki’s HEV models.
From head to tail, all-LED lighting contributes to a modern appearance and sleek, futuristic styling.
Thanks to the contribution of its traction motor, the Ninja 7 Hybrid’s fuel economy is superior to even that of Kawasaki’s own Ninja 250.
When the vehicle stops during MT operation, the transmission is automatically returned to 1st gear to facilitate moving off again. The system may also be turned off.
4.3” all-digital TFT colour instrumentation gives the cockpit a high-tech, high-grade appearance, while being able to connect to the bike wirelessly offers an enhanced motorcycling experience.
A new version of Rideology the App will be introduced for the Kawasaki Hybrid. The information available will focus on general information already used in Rideology for other machines as well as updates and insights unique to the operation of an HEV.
Kawasaki hybrid electric vehicles feature power units that combine an internal combustion engine (ICE) with a compact traction motor to offer a range of performance possibilities and a number of new riding experiences.
The e-boost function allows riders to briefly tap into extra power for stronger acceleration and a higher top speed.
Kawasaki’s unique, electronically controlled transmission uses proprietary logic to smoothly shift gears and operate the clutch. With actuation of the gears and the hydraulic clutch carried out by the bike, the rider can focus on throttle control.
With button-shift, the rider initiates gear shifts using the shift buttons on the left handle.
When the vehicle comes to a complete stop, the Idling Stop Function turns the engine off to conserve fuel.
WALK Mode assists with maneuvering in a parking lot. When engaged, opening the throttle moves the bike forward at walking speed. Closing the throttle past the “zero” point moves the bike in reverse.
When operating exclusively using the electric motor, no emissions are created.
Smartphone connectivity contributes to an enhanced motorcycling experience by enabling riders to connect to their motorcycle wirelessly.
