Harley Davidson and Electrify America Partner Up for the Electric Motorbikes

We are excited to work with an iconic brand like Harley-Davidson, as part of a shared commitment to advancing the electric transportation industry.”

Electrify America is looking for to have 3,500 chargers spread on 800 charging stations by the end of 2021.

“At Harley-Davidson, we are taking significant steps to lead in the electrification of motorcycling. We are supporting the development of global charging infrastructure.” Luke Mansfield, vice president of Harley-Davidson Motor Company, said.

The HD motorbikes will start being produced in the following months and will have an approximate cost of 30,000 dollars.
