Great Wall Motors has officially unveiled its new motorcycle brand Souo S2000 luxury tourer.
This new Chinese motorcycle will compete with Honda Gold Wing and BMW K1600 as well as Indian Pursuit and Harley-Davidson Ultra Limited.
This touring bike is equipped with the world's only horizontally opposed eight-cylinder engine with a displacement of 2000 cc.
Power figures have not yet been disclosed, but the engine is mated to an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The developers have stated that the use of this transmission technology will provide the driver with smoother and faster gear changes.
It should be noted that flat engines are preferred in large motorcycles because they maintain a low center of gravity and offer better stability.

Great Wall Motors has equipped the S2000 with the world's first three-layer stepped front suspension, which also has a multi-stage adjustable electronic shock absorber.
The frame is constructed of cast aluminum without any screws, very similar to the Honda Goldwing.
Braking is provided by a four-piston Brembo setup.

The Souo touring motorcycle is equipped with heated seats, a windshield that can be raised at the touch of a button, a blind spot monitoring system and a 12.3-inch touchscreen that supports connectivity and updates over the air, as well as voice control, cruise control and electric reverse gear.

The rev counter shows a red line starting from 6,000 RPM.
This indicates that the motorcycle is tuned for torquey low and mid-range performance.
The speedometer has a maximum reading of 240 km/h.

The overall length of the model is 2660 mm, width 950 mm, height 1540 mm, wheelbase size is 1810 mm, and saddle height is 740 mm. Thus, the novelty is much larger than the iconic Honda Gold Wing.

The Chinese luxury tourer Souo S2000 is expected to be cheaper than the Honda Gold Wing.It will cost approximately $28,000.
