Harley-Davidson Launches Into Electric Scooters!

LiveWire, Harley-Davidson’s electric motorcycle division, unveils an electric maxi-scooter aimed at the European market.

By launching its electric brand LiveWire, Harley-Davidson demonstrated that an iconic brand can look to the future confidently and proudly. But risking outraging purists, the American manufacturer is going even further and plans to launch its first electric maxi-scooters in the first half of 2026. To achieve this, LiveWire has decided to partner with Taiwanese two-wheeler specialist KYMCO to incorporate LiveWire’s electric performance benefits into a proven maxi-scooter platform. This collaboration is an extension of the existing agreement between the two companies, which was established in 2022, with KYMCO’s investment in LiveWire.

While KYMCO sells products under its own name, it is primarily one of the leading OEMs for the world’s major scooter manufacturers. The brand was also one of the first to adapt and acquire solid experience in electric scooters. Its expertise in this category adds a new dimension to LiveWire’s product lineup and strengthens its position as a pioneering passion for the electric two-wheel segment.

The two models, urban and all-terrain, planned in this ambitious project will use LiveWire’s S2 Arrow powertrain as the technical foundation. The performance of LiveWire’s S2 motorcycles in maxi-scooters promises fun and excitement! The intimidating rumblings of Harley-Davidson internal combustion engines are not on the agenda, but evolution is necessary. The models are intended for worldwide sale, but the European market, eager for this type of model, is the stated priority. LiveWire anticipates marketing in the first half of 2026.
