Creating the next generation of motorcycles

LiveWire® & KYMCO Strengthen Strategic Partnership with Expansion of LiveWire’s S2 Portfolio

LiveWire is excited to announce the expansion of our strategic partnership with globally recognized powersports company KYMCO, in creating LiveWire’s debut maxi-scooter. We plan to launch in the first half of 2026 to offer customers an electric riding experience that capitalizes on the convenience and benefits of the category and utilizes the performance and range of the S2 powertrain.

As you can see from these concept images, we intend to enter this category in a way that only LiveWire can, with products that stand apart visually, technically, and experientially. We believe that electric motorcycles provide a pure and joyful riding experience, and while LiveWire has delivered on this promise, we also know that many people commute on other forms of two wheels in cities like Paris and Milan, and that these riders’ needs and expectations may exist outside of our current lineup of products.

The performance traits of our powertrain — such as range and recharge rates, in addition to our abilities to create smooth linear torque and power delivery—give us the confidence that these are LiveWire’s competitive advantages in this category, and we anticipate riders immediately discovering new levels of excitement, comfort, and convenience commuting on a S2 powered electric maxi-scooter.

STO Fest – A memoir from the road 

People come to the desert for a lot of things, to lose themselves, to find themselves, and if you were a member of the Cosa Nostra in the 60s & 70s, to lose someone else.
