Zero Electric Motorcycles in Australia

Last year Motoaus attended a demo ride for the Zero electric dirt bikes in Lake Elsinore, California and we filed this story.
The electric bikes Zero had on test that day were the full dirt only versions. Also on on display was a streetable version.

Today, Zero Motorcycles Australia announce the Australian release of the Zero S and DS electric motorcycles. They are are the first 100% electric ‘street legal’ motorcycles available in the Australian Market.

Zero S – Street

Instant torque and power from a standstill, plus smooth acceleration as you race out of turns all without ever needing to stop at a petrol station. Developed to aggressively take on urban environments and encourage the occasional detour, the Zero S electric motorcycle integrates revolutionary technology with innovative motorcycle design. Built from the ground up using Zero Motorcycles’ proprietary Z-Force power pack and aircraft grade alloy frame, the Zero S features an industry leading power-to-weight ratio that increases its range and maneuverability.

At 122kg, the Zero S has a range of up to 80 Kilometers and a GPS verified top speed of 110 KPH. The Zero S is designed for optimal performance off the line, in sharp turns and while navigating obstacles. Instant acceleration and lightweight design enable the Zero S to take on any city street, hill or obstacle, combining exhilaration with efficiency.

Zero DS – Dual Sport

The Zero DS combines innovation with passion to deliver the world’s most versatile electric motorcycle. Created to be agile in the dirt and quick on the street, the Zero DS represents a new kind of freedom. Tough when you demand it and distinguished when required, the Zero DS has an edgy, yet sophisticated appearance highlighted by an eye catching twin spar frame that is both rigid and lightweight.

Powered by the most advanced drive train in the industry, the Zero DS is a fully electric motorcycle that can handle any surface you can throw at it. Navigating obstacles and maintaining control is assured using a specially developed suspension system and a rugged wheel set. During technical maneuvers an optimized direct drive gear system delivers astonishing responsiveness with the twist of your wrist.
