The all-electric Zero DS motorcycle runs on a pack of lithium-ion batteries and is manufactured from 100% recyclable materials.
The California-based company also claims that the bike’s materials are non-toxic and the batteries are “landfill-approved”, with an aircraft grade aluminum skeleton.
Our fast chargers are completely automatic and use a specially developed charge profile to optimize charge times. You can leave your battery on the charger for hours, days, even months (if you are away from home). It´s ready to go when you are and plugs into any standard 110 or 220 volt outlet.
Electricity is a very clean and efficient form of energy. Although there is some pollution associated with the production of electricity, a Zero motorcycle will produce less than one-eighth of the CO2 pollution per mile at the power plant than a gas powered motorcycle. It will also produce 1/100th of the smog causing nitrous oxides.
The motorcycle boasts an impressive range of 50 miles per charge, from any standard 110- or 220-volt outlet. It also has a top speed of 55 mph and can handle streets, gravel roads, and dirt trails. Its rugged wheels, aggressive design, and dual sport tyres are built to efficiently move riders over any surface.
“This is designed for motorcyclists who want the freedom to ride wherever they want” said Gene Banman, CEO of Zero Motorcycles, in the press release. “The Zero DS is the world’s most versatile electric motorcycle. You can cut across a dirt trail on your way into work or ride the tarmac to your favorite trail-head.”
The Zero DS is available for purchase exclusively through the Zero Motorcycles’ website and is priced at $9,950.
