presentation of the S 2018
Stunning acceleration at all revs, razor-sharp lines and sporty ergonomics turn daily commutes into an experience. With an aerodynamically efficient riding position that contributes to a range of 359 km in the city and 180 km on the freeway, the Zero S offers the longest range in the Zero Motorcycles range.
powered by the most advanced technology on the market, the Z-Force® powertrain catapults forward. No shifting. All torque. Just continuous acceleration with a flick of the wrist. The Zero S eliminates noise, fumes and vibrations, leaving you to feel the uninterrupted flow of driving pleasure.
transform performance profiles at the touch of a button to conquer city streets, urban arteries and winding back roads alike. The Zero S is pre-programmed with Eco or Sport modes. Connect with your mobile device to customize performance or get driving statistics.
6 times faster charging
the Charge Tank accessory adds up to 137 km of range to the Zero S for every hour of charging when plugged into a Level 2 charging station. Coffee time now translates into around 50 km of driving. A full charge can be completed in an hour, depending on battery capacity.
recharging - Suitable for domestic outlets.
no special equipment required: standard household sockets can be used as a charging station for much less than the cost of petrol. Plug in at night to start the day with a full tank.
more driving. Less maintenance.
say goodbye to powertrain maintenance and dealer wait times. Sophisticated. Simple. The Z-Force® powertrain eliminates the sludge problems of fossil fuel burners. No more oil, spark plugs, clutches, filters, chain adjustments or costly overhauls. Instead, a carbon-fiber belt connects the rear wheel directly to a single-piece moving motor to deliver torque on a par with conventional superbikes.
the Z-Force® powertrain software is constantly optimized to enhance performance. The Zero Motorcycles app provides easy access to upgrades from your mobile device.
the Zero S is the American manufacturer's longest-running model (with the longest range of any production electric motorcycle on the planet). At its heart is a battery with the highest power and energy density on the electric vehicle market. The greater the battery capacity, the greater the range.
two versions of the Zero S are available:
Zero ZF7.2 11kW - The ZF7.2 battery is half the size of the larger ZF14.4. The more compact battery frees up space for an additional lockable storage compartment, and reduces weight.
Range (km): 143 city / 72 highway
Zero ZF14.4 11kW - Best range. The ZF14.4 offers almost twice the range of the ZF7.2.
Range (km): 288 city / 145 highway
