The Ninja 7 Hybrid and Z e-1 Hybrid cater to a niche audience interested in environmentally-conscious transportation options.

About Kawasaki Ninja 7 Hybrid 

Kawasaki Ninja 7 Hybrid is likely to hit the Indian market, sharing its 451cc platform with the Ninja 500 and Eliminator. It will be equipped with a parallel twin-cylinder DOHC 4V liquid-cooled engine that delivers 44.7 bhp of power and 42.6 Nm of torque.

The Ninja 7 Hybrid bike is equipped with more advanced shift paddles integrated into the left-side switchgear and a 6-speed manual gearbox. This combination of traditional powertrain and electric assistance makes it an attractive option.
