A LiveWire, the Harley-Davidson division in the electric mobility sector, is about to present a second version of the S2 Del Mar, the electric motorcycle already on sale in some European countries and which, for now, is the entry level in terms of cost and accessibility of the LiveWire range.
This would be evidenced by some documents related to the homologation and owner’s manual of the classic 2024, discovered by the North American colleagues of Motorcycle.com. While the S2 Del Mar we know is indeed marked S2DM, now the S2MH appears in the homologation documents, which would correspond to the news that LiveWire in 2023 registered the name Mulholland in some European and American markets, a sign that the use of the name for a next electric motorcycle is quite likely.Any doubts about the existence of the S2 Mulholland would be clarified by some data related to the weight and height of the seat, specifically different for the S2MH and which talk about a bike that is three kilos lighter than the Del Mar (195 kg), lower in the seat (810 vs. 825 mm) and 15 mm longer in the wheelbase, which is 1,468 mm. The Arrow platform on which the Del Mar was born seems to have a second line of decline, even though the presence of the abbreviation “S2” may suggest a different configuration rather than a totally different model: there have been rumors for some years now about S3 and S4 models, which we hope – at least as a rumor – to see by 2024.
From the point of view of the engine and autonomy, however, not much should change: the Arrow platform exploits the battery pack as a tension element of the frame and the motor provides 84 hp peak and a rated power of 40 hp with a maximum torque of 263 Nm, for a top speed of over 160 km/h. But given the modular nature of the structure, we are waiting for confirmed news from LiveWire to comment on data, prices and arrival times for both the Mulholland and the other bikes from the American brand.
