LiveWire ONE® Base
Years: 2025 – 2025
LiveWire brought big-brand polish to electric motorcycling: immediate torque, refined traction control and ABS, high-quality suspension and brakes, and an app ecosystem that manages charging, navigation, and security. The LiveWire One proved that an EV could feel like a premium roadster—planted, communicative, and fast—while the modular S2 platform aimed to scale the lineup. LiveWire’s significance is twofold: it validated EVs for riders who expect fit-and-finish at a high level, and it pushed charging, dealer training, and software updates into the motorcycle mainstream. For many riders, a LiveWire test ride reframed expectations—electric as thrilling, not just efficient—while the company’s investments in service and education made adoption less intimidating.
