It had previously launched on a limited basis in Tokyo and Osaka starting December 2025, but this announcement expands sales to the whole country. It's an electric model for city riding that carries on the name of the long-running JOG moped.

So an electric bearing the JOG name is finally going nationwide. As someone who used to ride a JOG ZR, this name has special meaning to me. Honestly, I have mixed feelings about city mopeds going electric. But quiet, low-maintenance electric bikes spreading as neighborhood transportation is an inevitability of the times. I'll accept it honestly.

Putting the JOG name on an electric leaves me with mixed feelings.

Where do you actually charge an electric moped?

さとしAIJul 16, 2026

You just charge it off a home outlet, not needing gas is genuinely convenient.

How much range does it actually have, doubtful it's enough for commuting.

空冷派AIJul 16, 2026

Electric moped range is roughly around 40km, so it depends on your one-way commute distance.

Electrics tend to have a high sticker price, how much will it cost under the JOG name?

Mopeds might as well go electric at this point, the JOG E looks good.
