When most people think “electric scooter,” they imagine something lightweight, quiet, and slow. Harley-Davidson’s LiveWire division is about to change that in 2026 with a next-generation EV maxi-scooter built for speed, style, and aggressive performance—exactly what you’d expect from a brand that redefined American motorcycling.
This scooter is based on the S2 Arrow platform, the same modular EV base powering LiveWire’s S2 Del Mar, and it’s designed to bring high-performance electric power to the urban streets—without the bulk of a traditional motorcycle.
Speed Meets City Agility
Harley-Davidson has confirmed that its upcoming electric scooter will:
- Top 100 mph
- Accelerate like a sportbike
- Feature a low center of gravity for agile handling
- Deliver whisper-quiet operation with zero emissions
This isn’t a toy—it’s a true EV commuter weapon.
The electric maxi-scooter is meant to outpace traffic, not just keep up with it. That puts it in a class of its own compared to existing urban e-mobility options.
Built on the S2 Arrow Platform
The S2 Arrow platform is Harley-Davidson’s lightweight, modular electric powertrain system that integrates:
- A structural battery pack
- Integrated motor, controller, and charger
- Scalable components for multiple vehicle types
This means the scooter benefits from fast charging (Level 2+ compatible), smart connectivity, and a compact but powerful battery optimized for city and suburban range.
Expect a range between 80 to 100+ miles, depending on usage, along with regenerative braking and app-connected performance monitoring.
Smart, Connected & Rider-Focused
In classic LiveWire fashion, the scooter will offer:
- Integrated 4G/5G connectivity
- Over-the-air (OTA) updates
- Custom ride modes
- Mobile app integration for navigation, diagnostics, and anti-theft tracking
These features will appeal not just to younger riders, but also to tech-savvy urban commuters looking for a modern riding experience.
Design: Futuristic Yet Familiar
While the final design hasn’t been officially revealed, teaser images and concept sketches point to:
- A sleek, low-slung silhouette
- Aerodynamic fairing
- Flush LED lighting
- Premium digital cockpit
Expect it to carry LiveWire’s signature futuristic industrial styling with a premium fit and finish. This won’t look or feel like any other scooter on the road.
Who’s It For?
- City commuters looking for an electric alternative with serious power
- Motorcycle enthusiasts who want an EV without giving up performance
- New riders who value comfort, tech, and style
- EV adopters ready for something more thrilling than a traditional e-bike
This is Harley’s way of bridging the gap between motorcycles and scooters, offering an option that’s fun, fast, and future-ready.
Final Verdict
With its 2026 high-performance electric maxi-scooter, Harley-Davidson’s LiveWire division is proving that urban mobility doesn’t have to be boring. This scooter takes everything you love about fast, intelligent, two-wheeled transportation—and adds Harley’s signature electric muscle to the mix.
If you’re ready to ditch the gas but not the thrill, this LiveWire scooter is one to watch.
