The Zero DS 2025 is a high-performance electric adventure bike built for both city streets and off-road adventures. It is powered by a robust Z-Force 75-7 motor, delivering smooth and instant torque with no gears to shift, making it easy to ride for anyone. The motor produces up to 68 horsepower and a whopping 132 Nm of torque, which ensures quick acceleration and powerful climbing ability on challenging terrains. The bike comes with a Z-Force lithium-ion battery, offering an impressive range of up to 144 miles in the city or 98 miles on the highway. With optional Power Tank upgrades, the range can be further extended. Charging is simple and convenient, as it supports Level 2 charging, enabling the battery to fully charge in just a few hours.
The Zero DS features a lightweight aluminum frame, which is strong yet nimble, making it easy to maneuver. Its long-travel suspension, consisting of a 41mm telescopic fork at the front and a preload-adjustable rear shock, ensures a smooth and comfortable ride over rough surfaces. The bike is equipped with dual-sport tires for excellent grip on dirt and paved roads. It also has a BOSCH ABS braking system, which provides reliable stopping power in all conditions.
Technology is a highlight, with a fully digital LCD display that shows speed, battery status, and riding mode. Riders can choose between Eco, Sport, and Custom modes, tailoring the performance to their needs. The bike is also compatible with the Zero Motorcycles app, allowing you to customize settings, monitor performance, and track ride data directly from your smartphone.
