Electric motorcycles 2021, have you ever thought about it? New models, prices and autonomy 96

Electric 16 May

Coming to the new model, as expected, the new LiveWire One & egrave; substantially the current electric motorcycle revived with the new brand. From the point of view of specifications, there are no particular news. The real big difference with the & quot; previous & quot; LiveWire is, for & ograve ;, in the price . The & quot; One & quot ;, in fact, costs much less. If previously the price was as much as 29,799 dollars, now the electric motorcycle will be possible; buy at $ 21,999. This is a cut of nearly $ 8,000.

ENGINE AND RANGE

Aesthetically there are practically no differences with the previous model. Two colors available: Liquid Black and Horizon White. Speaking of the powertrain, we find a 78 kW (105 hp) electric motor with 116 Nm of torque powered by a 15.4 kWh battery capable of offering a range of up to 146 miles (235 km) in city ​​and up to 95 miles (153 km) on the combined cycle. Is not serious; No mention was made of the autonomy of the electric motorcycle at speed motorway. Curiously, on the official website they report different specifications for the engine power, 75 kW (114 Nm) and 78 kW (116 Nm). But since the & quot; original & quot; LiveWire had 78 kW, probably this & egrave; the correct data. Little would change, however, in terms of performance.

To go from 0 to 60 mph (96 km/h), 3 seconds are enough. The speed & egrave; of 110 miles per hour (177 km/h) . The LiveWire One supports fast DC charging . A full charge of energy with the empty accumulator takes 60 minutes. 80%, on the other hand, can be reached in 45 minutes. Mostly, therefore, these are the same numbers as the current Harley-Davidson electric motorcycle.


LiveWire One debutter & agrave; publicly at IMS North California on July 18, 2021. The bike can already be ordered through the LiveWire site and from early retailers in California, New York and Texas (more to come in the future). The bike will arrive on the international market in 2022. There are, however, no precise details for the Old Continent.
