Harley-Davidson will eventually go fully electric, says CEO

The company already has its new sub-brand LiveWire, which offers electric motorcycles.

According to a news report, Jochen Zeitz, CEO of Harley-Davidson has revealed that the company will transition into a fully-electric future.

The CEO released a statement confirming that Harley-Davidson will one day stop production of its iconic V-twin engines and offer only electric bikes. The statement, however, outlines the company's plans over the next few decades, which means that the transition to EVs is quite a while away.

The company already has its new sub-brand LiveWire, which offers electric motorcycles. Harley-Davidson is said to bring in a number of additions to this lineup, including a range of accessible lightweight motorcycles co-developed by KYMCO. The company also has plans to offer larger e-bikes, mimicking the iconic cruiser-style motorcycles Harley-Davidson is known for.

Currently, the American motorcycle brand has a long list of V-twin-powered models in its lineup. Harley-Davidson also recently introduced new models like the Nightster & Sportster S, along with the brand's first ADV-Tourer, the Pan America 1250.
