Chinese automotive brand GWM has unveiled its first-ever large-displacement motorcycle, the Souo S2000, marking a significant diversification into the two-wheeled market.
Despite their lack of experience in motorcycle manufacturing, GWM has truly impressed with their inaugural offering, surpassing expectations.
The Souo S2000 is powered by a flat-eight engine with a displacement of 2.0 liters, outdoing the 1.8-liter flat-six engine found in the Honda Goldwing. Its powertrain is paired with an 8-speed transmission, providing smooth speed control and potent power delivery.

Not only does the Souo S2000 excel in engine performance, but it also boasts larger dimensions. With a wheelbase of 1,810 mm, it surpasses the Goldwing by 115 mm, contributing to enhanced stability during long-distance rides. However, it is also 78 kg heavier than the Goldwing, tipping the scales at 461 kg.

The Souo S2000 is offered in three distinct variants: the base model S2000ST, the upscale S2000GL with a larger rear seat and luggage box, and the top-of-the-line S2000 Founder Edition that sports a sleek matte black and gold color scheme.
Standard features across the range include a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, rear parking sensors, heated seats, and over-the-air update capability.
