The legendary company said the acquisition complements the upcoming LiveWire full-size electric motorcycle it is launching later this year.StaCyc’s bikes are currently priced at $649 to $699, hold enough charge for about an hour of riding and have adjustable power outputs to better match a beginner’s skills, with top speeds ranging from 9 mph to 11 mph. It will continue to sell under its own name while adding Harley-Davidson-branded versions for distribution through The Motor Company’s dealers.
StayCyc has sold over 6,000 bikes since it was founded four years ago, and founder Ryan Ragland said in a press release that Harley-Davidson is offering all the support it needs to “carry out our mission to create the next generation of riders...”

Along with the LiveWire, which has a starting price of $29,799, Harley-Davidson is planning a full lineup of electric two-wheelers that could eventually include scooters and mountain bike-type models.Singapore-based smart electric motorbike and energy storage solutions startup ION Mobility unveiled yesterday (December 2) its very first electric motorbike.

Called the ION Mobius, the electric vehicle (EV) was conceptualised, designed, and assembled in Singapore over the span of 18 months.

At the event, Minister Tan congratulated ION Mobility on its achievements that it has accomplished over the past two years.Despite the challenging Covid-19 pandemic, the company has managed to complete two fundraising rounds, assemble a senior leadership team, and expand its operations to three countries.Back in October, the company announced that it has raised a total of US$6.8 million in a seed round.

“I am also happy to note that ION Mobility is now ready to launch a small-batch manufacturing line in Singapore, and there are plans to scale up to a monthly output of 500 electric motorbikes and battery packs,” he said.

He deems these as important milestones not just for the company, but the local automotive manufacturing industry as whole.He further described the launch of ION Mobius as timely and significant, considering that Singapore is moving towards electrifying its vehicle population by 2040.

“ION Mobility has not only integrated IoT technologies in its ION Mobius design to create tech-enabled features for greater user experience, the innovative proprietary battery pack and engine design also allows it to achieve longer range and top speed, comparable to conventional Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles,” he added.
