Harley-Davidson announced that it would be spinning off its electric vehicle operations into a new all-electric focused brand called the LiveWire, named after its halo model that flipped the script on traditional American motorcycles.To get more news about buy electric motorcycle, you can visit davincimotor.com official website.

Harley-Davidson’s electric division that created the LiveWire motorcycle was originally intended to be fully under the Milwaukee umbrella, providing startup-like agility as the company continued development on future electric motorcycle models as well as planned urban mobility solutions.

Now, it appears Harley-Davidson would rather have its electric future marketed under a wholly-owned brand the LiveWire. The move also comes as part of H-D’s Hardwire plan that aims to reverse declining sales figures and revitalize the company to keep it in the black and financially solvent.

After years of development, the LiveWire motorcycle was released in 2019 and has since become the top-selling electric motorcycle in the U.S., according to the company.One of the six pillars of The Hardwire Strategy is to lead in electric – by launching LiveWire as an all-electric brand, we are seizing the opportunity to lead and define the market in EV. With the mission to be the most desirable electric motorcycle brand in the world, LiveWire will pioneer the future of motorcycling, for the pursuit of urban adventure and beyond. LiveWire also plans to innovate and develop technology that will be applicable to Harley-Davidson electric motorcycles in the future,” said Jochen Zeitz, chairman, president and CEO of Harley-Davidson in a news release.

With large amounts of investment going into the electric automobile sector, Harley-Davidson stands to benefit from the growing acceptance of the technology. A recent survey by BikeSure in the U.K. found that 46.7 percent of young riders surveyed would consider purchasing an electric motorcycle.

The first LiveWire branded motorcycle is scheduled to launch on July 8, 2021 and to premiere at the International Motorcycle Show on July 9, 2021.

LiveWire will be headquartered virtually, the company said, with initial hubs in Silicon Valley, CA and Milwaukee, WI. The location in Silicon Valley makes sense from both a venture capital standpoint and for its planned technology sharing plans with other electric vehicle manufacturers.

Developed in partnership with Zero Motorcycles, the XP Zero is not your regular motorcycle. It's a machine that breaks the norm and pushes the boundaries. Based on the Zero SR/F platform, the XP has a futuristic design that makes it look like it came straight out of "Blade Runner."To get more news about davinci, you can visit davincimotor.com official website.

The integrated onboard ride computer only adds to that – and it's not there only for looks. It has 14 performance profiles that can turn the bike from a cruiser to a café racer.

The bike is equipped with an advanced all-electric powertrain capable of delivering 110 hp and almost twice the torque of a Ducati Panigale V4 R. That's enough to make the XP fly at a top speed of 124 mph (200 kph). It's also incredibly fast, being able to go from 0 to 60 mph (0-100 kph) in just 3.7 seconds. That's actually faster than a Ferrari F50.

If all of these weren't impressive enough, the bike is actually getting even more power and more torque. Recently, Untitled Motorcycles teamed up with Exro, a Canadian-based company dedicated to enhancing the performance and efficiency of electrical power systems.

Exro will provide its proprietary 100 Volt Coil Driver technology to boost up the XP's performance. That means a 25 percent increase in power and 15 percent increase in torque, which give the bike a whopping 162 ft-lb (219 Nm). "To put it in context, that's the same torque as a Lotus Exige S, but in a vehicle that's 1,600lbs lighter," said Hugo Eccles, founder and design director of Untitled Motorcycles.

We think it was Einstein who once said you shouldn’t judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree or something to that effect. In this case, meaning that almost every electric two-wheeler today is special in its own right, each offering a ray of hope for the future of our green planet. To get more news about evehicle, you can visit davincimotor.com official website.

And even then, the ones we have here on this list are extraordinary, to say the least. Each is an apex predator in one right or the other, offering superlative bragging rights either in terms of performance or efficiency or just plain ridiculous price tags. They represent the very best of what our electrified future of mobility has to offer, and what better day to celebrate them than today, World EV day.Lightning Motorcycles is a USA-based EV manufacturer that recently made headlines with its LS-218. It currently claims to clock a top speed of 350kmph. That’s more than what its modern-day petrol-powered litre-class foes offer.

It’s powered by a 150kW+ motor and gets a 20kWh battery pack. Apart from the massive top speed, the Lightning LS-218’s components too are quite impressive. You get Brembo brakes and Ohlins suspension at both ends. With a DC fast charger, the battery can be charged in just 30 minutes.
Italy’s Energica will have the chance to put its electric motorcycles on the main stage for the first time in 2019 as the sole sponsor for MotoGP’s first electric class with the Moto-E series. The new series will almost certainly provide invaluable marketing for the electric marquee as the motorcycling public becomes increasingly aware of modern electric bikes’ comparability to internal combustion engine-powered mounts.

I personally find the strongest selling point of electric motorcycles to be their insane torque. Unlike a gas-powered motorcycles, ebikes don’t have any powerband, aka, there’s no sweet-spot in the rev-range where you’ll find the most power. With an electric powertrain, its full torque is fully on tap at any given moment, just twist the throttle and it’s there. Companies have actually had to limit power at lower speeds to prevent wheel-spins, jerky throttles, and general accidental buffoonery. For example, Zero greatly limits its bikes’ torque until after 15mph.

While I’ll never cease to be amazed by 200hp superbikes, torque is really where the fun is at, especially on the street. So the fact many electric bikes can offer nearly double the torque of the gas-powered bikes they’d be roughly comparable to in cc’s should start to convey how much of hooligan machines ebikes truly are. Moto-E should serve as a fantastic reminder to the world that these things can seriously go.
Another factor that has been largely problematic for the electric moto sector is pricing. With current ranges — that will almost certainly be markedly improved in the very near future — most ebikes are marketed as commuters, and consequently people typically aren’t interested in forking over exorbitant amounts of money on commuters.
