Harley-Davidson's LiveWire Reveals Two Electric Bike Concepts, Know Everything
Last Updated: Both bikes come with removable batteries, making charging super convenient. LiveWire, Harley-Davidson's electric bike division, has revealed two new concept motorcycles. Unveiled on the brand's social media channels, these lightweight electric two-wheelers are designed for short-distance, everyday adventures. The two models cater to different needs – one built for city streets and the other for backyard trails and pump tracks. Both bikes run on a brand-new electric platform and feature removable battery options, making charging simpler and more flexible. LiveWire hasn't shared full performance specs yet, but early figures are promising. Both bikes can sprint from 0 to 50kmph in just three seconds and reach a top speed of about 85kmph. On a single charge, riders can expect a range of nearly 160km. With limited top speed, these concepts aren't intended for freeway use. Instead, they're aimed at offering fun and practical alternatives to full-size motorcycles – ideal for short commutes or casual adventures. From the look of the photos, these concept models seem quite close to production-ready. While there's no official launch date, many expect a grand reveal at EICMA 2025, the world's largest motorcycle show. view comments First Published: July 18, 2025, 09:06 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
