Suzuki showcases hydrogen-powered Burgman maxi-scooter: Check features, design
Suzuki revealed its hydrogen-fueled Burgman test scooter at the ongoing Japan Mobility Show in Tokyo. The maxi-scooter, with a sleek design and large dimensions, is based on the existing Burgman 400 ABS model. The prototype features a 70Mpa hydrogen tank, likely to be situated beneath the floorboard and connected directly to the engine. The official launch of the production model is expected to take some time.
How does it look like?
The hydrogen-powered Burgman boasts a split-type headlight with a smoked upright visor, a typical maxi-scooter-like muscular bodywork, a central spine, and a contoured single-piece seat. The hardware configuration is expected to remain consistent with the Burgman 400 ABS, which includes telescopic front forks, a rear mono-shock unit, and disc brakes on both ends. The scooter rolls on 15-inch alloy wheels with grippy wide-section tires.
Suzuki showcased an electrified Burgman as well
Suzuki intends to incorporate the hydrogen engine into the existing Burgman 400 ABS using a combustion system rather than a fuel cell. Alongside the hydrogen-powered test scooter, Suzuki also displayed the e-Burgman at the motor show. Currently, there is no official timeline for the release of the hydrogen-powered Burgman production model. However, we expect it to arrive soon.
