Imakethe yezimoto zikagesi ikhule ngokushesha eminyakeni yamuva nje, futhi u-Harley-Davidson, ongomunye wemikhiqizo evelele embonini yezithuthuthu, wenza amagagasi ngokungena endaweni yesithuthuthu sikagesi. Ukwethulwa kwe-Harley-Davidson kagesi e-United States kungenisa inkathi entsha yohlobo oludumile njengoba lwamukela ukushintshela kwezokuthutha ezisimeme nezinobungani nemvelo. Ake sibheke ngokujulile uhambo luka-Harley-Davidson lokufaka ugesi futhi sihlole umthelela wezithuthuthu zikagesi e-United States.
Eyaziwa kakhulu ngamabhayisikili anamandla futhi adumayo asebenzisa uphethiloli, i-Harley-Davidson yathusa umhlaba wonke ngesikhathi yethula isithuthuthu sayo sokuqala sikagesi, i-LiveWire. Lesi sinyathelo esibalulekile siphawula ushintsho olukhulu ekuphusheni kwenkampani ezimotweni zikagesi. I-LiveWire idonse ukunaka kwabathandi bezithuthuthu nabameli bezemvelo ngomklamo wayo oshelelayo nokusebenza okumangazayo. Imele isinyathelo esinesibindi esiya phambili sokuthi i-United States yamukele ukuqanjwa kabusha futhi ihlangabezane nesidingo esikhulayo sezimoto zikagesi.
Ukwethulwa kwe-Harley-Davidson kagesi e-US kukhombisa ukushintsha kwezwe embonini yezithuthuthu. Njengoba abantu beqhubeka begxila ekusimameni nasekunciphiseni ukukhishwa kwekhabhoni, izithuthuthu zikagesi seziphenduke enye indlela ephoqelelayo kumabhayisikili endabuko asebenzisa uphethiloli. I-US iyimakethe ebalulekile ye-Harley-Davidson, lapho isithakazelo ezimotweni zikagesi sikhula, futhi uphawu lwesithonjana luphendule ngokushesha kulokhu kushintsha kokuthandwayo kwabathengi.
Enye yezinzuzo eziyinhloko zezithuthuthu zikagesi umthelela wazo wemvelo. Ngokukhipha i-zero tailpipe, ama-e-bikes ahlinzeka ngendlela yokuthutha ehlanzekile, ehlaza, esiza ukulwa nokungcoliswa komoya nokunciphisa imilobo ye-carbon footprint. Njengoba i-United States iqhubeka nokubeka phambili ukuvikelwa kwemvelo kanye nezinqubo ezisimeme, ukwamukelwa kwezithuthuthu zikagesi ze-Harley-Davidson kuhambisana nokuzibophezela kwezwe ekusaseni elihlanzekile, elinempilo.
Ukwengeza, i-Harley-Davidson kagesi yaseMelika imele inkathi entsha yokuqamba izinto ezintsha nobuchwepheshe embonini yezithuthuthu. Ukuhlanganiswa kokuqhutshwa kukagesi kanye nobuchwepheshe bebhethri obuthuthukisiwe kuchaza kabusha ukuzizwisa kokugibela, ukuletha i-torque esheshayo, ukusheshisa okushelelayo kanye nezidingo zokunakekelwa okuphansi. Abagibeli bamukela ukukhanga kwekusasa kwezithuthuthu zikagesi ngoba bahlanganisa ukusebenza nokusebenza kahle nesipiliyoni sokugibela esithulile nesijabulisayo.
Ukwandiswa kwamamodeli kagesi e-Harley-Davidson e-United States nakho kube negalelo ekuthuthukisweni kwengqalasizinda eshajayo ezweni lonke. Njengoba abagibeli abaningi besebenzisa izithuthuthu zikagesi, isidingo seziteshi zokushaja siyakhula, okugqugquzela ukutshalwa kwezimali kunethiwekhi yezindawo zokushaja. Lokhu kuthuthukiswa kwengqalasizinda akusekeli nje kuphela imakethe ekhulayo yezimoto zikagesi kodwa futhi kukhulisa ukufinyeleleka okuphelele kanye nokuba lula kobunikazi bezithuthuthu zikagesi e-United States.
Ngaphezu kwentuthuko yezemvelo nezobuchwepheshe, i-Harley-Davidson kagesi yaseMelika ibangele uguquko lwamasiko emhlabeni wezithuthuthu. Abashisekeli bendabuko kanye nabashisekeli bamukele ukuvela kohlobo oludumile, bebona amandla ezithuthuthu zikagesi ukuze bahehe abagibeli abasha futhi bahlukanise isiko lezithuthuthu. I-Electric Harley-Davidson imele ukuhlanganiswa kwesiko nokuqanjwa kabusha, ukuhlala ngokweqiniso kumagugu omkhiqizo kuyilapho kukhanga izethameli eziningi.
Njengoba i-Harley-Davidsons kagesi iqhubeka nokuduma e-United States, ivula amathuba amasha embonini yezithuthuthu iyonke. Ukuhlanganiswa kwezimoto zikagesi ezinobuciko bobuciko baseMelika kubeka isibonelo kwabanye abakhiqizi ukuthi bahlole ezinye izindlela zikagesi futhi batshale imali ezisombululweni zezokuthutha ezisimeme. Uguquko lukagesi embonini yezithuthuthu lubumba kabusha amandla emakethe futhi luvula indlela yekusasa elisimeme neligcwele ugesi.
Sekukonke, ukukhuphuka kwe-Harley-Davidson kagesi e-United States kuphawula isahluko esishintshayo somkhiqizo wezithuthuthu kanye nemboni ebanzi. Ukwethulwa kwezithuthuthu zikagesi akugcini nje ngokunweba uhlelo lomkhiqizo, kodwa futhi kuchaza kabusha isithombe somkhiqizo ukuze kwamukelwe ukuqamba okusha kanye nentuthuko esimeme. Njengoba iMelika yamukela uguquko lukagesi, ukuduma kuka-Harley-Davidson okungokomfanekiso manje kuhambisana namandla athule okushayela ugesi, okubonisa inkathi entsha yabagibeli, abathanda kanye nayo yonke imboni yezithuthuthu.
