LiveWire S2 Mulholland Hits European Streets

The LiveWire S2 Mulholland can be charged from 0 to 100% in roughly 2 hours and 36 minutes with a Level 2 charger. It has an 85bhp electric motor and a 10.5kWh battery.

<p>Harley-Davidson has unveiled its latest electric marvel, the LiveWire S2 Mulholland, expanding the LiveWire lineup. The bike, based on the highly regarded Del Mar 'Arrow' design, ingeniously integrates the battery, motor, and electronics into one compact unit. This seamless integration not only enhances performance but also lends a striking aesthetic by harmonizing with the monocoque chassis, steering headstock, and swingarm. As a result, the ride gains agility and responsiveness, elevating the riding experience. Crafted as a cruiser-inspired motorbike, the S2 Mulholland draws attention with its allure. Riders seeking both style and functionality will find themselves drawn to its captivating specifications. According to the manufacturer, the LiveWire S2 Mulholland is now available for purchase at all U.S. and Canadian Harley-Davidson dealerships.</p>

<h2>LiveWire S2 Mulholland: Design and Feature</h2>

<p>The design of the S2 Mulholland effortlessly channels the essence of a vintage cruiser, showcasing a seamlessly integrated blend of features such as the low-slung seat, upswept handlebars, and a distinctive round LED headlamp. Added to its individuality, the underslung bar-end mirrors lend a unique touch, while subtle nods to the LiveWire One are evident in elements like the headlamp and turn indicators.</p>

<p><img alt="Harley Davidson LiveWire S2 Mulholland 1 " height="720" src="/uploads/2024/03/Harley-Davidson-LiveWire-S2-Mulholland-1-.png" width="1280" /></p>

<p>Delving into its specifications,<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/harley-davidson-livewire-to-be-dedicated-ev-brand-109430/"> the LiveWire</a> S2 Mulholland emerges as the top offering within the brand's lineup. Upfront, riders benefit from fully adjustable suspension, while the rear monoshock offers flexibility with preload and rebound damping adjustments. Handling braking duties at the front is a single Brembo M4.32 monobloc calliper, supported by standard dual-channel ABS for enhanced safety.</p>

<p>With its round, 4-inch TFT instrument cluster, the S2 Mulholland seamlessly orchestrates its array of electrical components. Through Bluetooth integration, users can take advantage of voice commands and text-to-speech functionality. The bike offers two fully customizable modes, A and B, alongside four pre-set riding modes: Sport, Road, Range, and Rain. Riders can tailor various riding aids, including traction control and regenerative braking, to suit their preferences within the selected modes. While traction control can be completely disengaged, adjustments to anti-lock brakes (ABS) intervention and regenerative braking are available, but cannot be entirely deactivated.</p>

<h2>LiveWire S2 Mulholland: Mechanical Specification</h2>

<p>Similar to the S2 Del Mar,<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/harley-davidson-livewire-all-you-need-to-know-106286/"> the LiveWire</a> S2 Mulholland is powered by a 10.5kWh battery pack. Nevertheless, the range does vary somewhat. The S2 Mulholland states that it can go 195 km.</p>

<p>In comparison to the S2 Del Mar, the S2 Mulholland is 1.7 kg lighter, coming in at 196 kg (kerb). The Del Mar has 19-inch wheels up front and 17-inch wheels on the rear, while the Mulholland comes with 19/17-inch wheels. Despite having the same battery capacity, these differences may cause the range numbers to vary. While an L1 charger will take about 9.1 hours to fully charge the battery, an L2 charger will do the same in only 2 hours and 22 minutes.</p>

<p>While both the S2 Mulholland and the S2 Del Mar have 84bhp and 263Nm of peak torque, there are small differences in the maximum speed and acceleration times. While the Del Mar has a reported 0-96km/h sprint time of 3.0 seconds and a peak speed of 166km/h, LiveWire claims that the Mulholland can reach 159km/h, which is somewhat slower.</p>


Harley-Davidson LiveWire S2 Mulholland Revealed; Claims 195km Range

Harley-Davidson has unveiled its latest model, the LiveWire S2 Mulholland, which builds upon the foundation of the LiveWire S2 Del Mar.

<p>LiveWire, Harley-Davidson's dedicated EV brand, has teased a new product. Dubbed the&nbsp;S2 Mulholland, the electric bike will be&nbsp;revealed globally on March 21 and will be&nbsp;the third offering from the American motorcycle manufacturer. Though the&nbsp;teaser video offers a limited look at the upcoming&nbsp;LiveWire S2 Mulholland, a few design elements are visible&nbsp;–&nbsp;the Mulholland badging and ‘Model 003’ on the fuel tank. The upright riding position in the teaser suggests that the&nbsp;S2 Mulholland will&nbsp;offer a comfortable ride.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The&nbsp;LiveWire S2 Mulholland will be built on the company's modular Arrow EV platform that is&nbsp;scalable and adaptable for a range of&nbsp;configurations and performance levels. The new S2 Arrow platform&nbsp;combines the motor, battery pack, and electronics into a single unit, which serves as a monocoque chassis. While we do not&nbsp;yet know the technical specifications, expect the performance levels of the S2 Mulholland to be identical to those&nbsp;of a middleweight petrol bike.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>LiveWire Brand: A Look Back</h2>

<p>Harley-Davidson entered the electric vehicle space with the unveiling of the LiveWire motorcycle in 2019. While the electric bike went on sale in several markets across the globe<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/all-electric-harley-davidson-livewire-unveiled-in-india-106496/">, it&nbsp;was only unveiled in India</a>.&nbsp;At that time,&nbsp;the&nbsp;LiveWire featured&nbsp;the firm's&nbsp;Revelation permanent-magnet electric motor developing&nbsp;104.6bhp and 116Nm of peak torque. Meanwhile, a&nbsp;15.5kWh high-voltage Li-ion battery offered&nbsp;a range of 142 kilometres.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The same name, LiveWire, was used for&nbsp;Harley-Davidson's&nbsp;all-electric motorcycle brand. The EV brand was launched in 2021 with an aim&nbsp;to redefine "electric, delivering the best experience for the urban rider". Then, the<a href="https://www.autox.com/news/bike-news/harley-davidsons-next-electric-bike-to-called-livewire-one-109611/"> first&nbsp;motorcycle wearing the LiveWire badge</a> was unveiled in July 2021. Called the LiveWire One, the&nbsp;motorcycle is powered by the Revelation&nbsp;motor that is coupled to&nbsp;a 15.4kWh lithium-ion battery pack.&nbsp;Harley-Davidson claims&nbsp;the LiveWire One offers a maximum range of 235 kilometres in the city.</p>

<p>The next product that followed the One motorcycle was the&nbsp;S2 Del Mar LE. In May 2022, the LE (Launch Edition) debuted the company's&nbsp;S2 Arrow architecture and received&nbsp;a 10.5kWh battery pack with&nbsp;a claimed city range of 182 kilometres. Over a year later came the S2 Del Mar with the same battery&nbsp;and range.&nbsp;</p>
