JAKARTA - The Honda prototype electric trail got extraordinary results in the IA1 motocross event which was his first competition.

Driven by Honda's advisor, Trey Canard, this prototype motorcycle impressed and even outperformed many other participants. Yap, CR Electric Proto was included as a wildcard competitor in the eighth round of the Motocross Championships throughout Japan.

On that occasion the electric trail motor from Honda competed with an internal combustion engine of 450cc, this motorbike appeared fast throughout the weekend.

Despite not winning, Canard said that the team wanted to collect data, not a trophy at the event.

"The end of this week is definitely a big challenge for me, but it's a big race for our development," Canard said, quoted from the Carscoops page, Friday, November 3.

In the first race, the Honda prototype was the second fastest, only 0.7 seconds adrift of the first rider. Meanwhile, in the second race he was eliminated and in the third race he took first place.

Taichi Honda, manager of the Honda Racing Corporation (HRC) Team, said that his team will implement what they learned from the three-day race, to help develop the ongoing CR Electric Proto.

This means that Honda increasingly believes that the prototype will be perfect in the future to be mass produced.
