Describe markets and primary target market in terms of demographics, psychographics, and or buyer behavior

I decided to talk about Harley Davidson Company and their new vision of the industry. When someone speaks about Harley-Davidson I see the picture of a beautiful and loud motorcycle, but what if I’ll say, that Harley-Davidson decided to produce green, electric and silent bike? Even worse, electric bicycle by Harley-Davidson.

”Harley-Davidson’s first electric pedal-assist bicycles are light, fast, and easy for anyone to ride. Designed to shine in urban environments, this all-new line of bicycles is just one more example of how Harley-Davidson is actively working to inspire a new generation of two-wheeled riders around the world.” (HD website.) Really excited to see their new creation on the streets.

I think this is a great idea for the company. More and more people decided to change their old cars to the new electric cars for many reasons. One of them, and probably the most important one, is climate change. People trying to do something with global environmental issues, that’s why they’re choosing green transportation. Is there a similar situation with a green electric bike?

Harley-Davidson motorcycle is a toy for adult kids, who wants to feel the power of bike and hear the sound of Harley. What about the bicycle? Technology has changed the way children grow up. Children are bombarded with advertisements, video games, television shows, movies, and a myriad of other images from an early age. That’s why Harley-Davidson launched their balance electric bikes for children. Their two new models are created specially for children 3-7 years old. The price for those products starts from 645$.
