The Zero S 2025 is an electric motorcycle designed for city commuting and short trips, offering a perfect mix of performance, efficiency, and modern features. It is powered by a Z-Force 75-7 motor that delivers smooth and silent acceleration with an impressive top speed of about 104 mph. The motor is paired with a 14.4 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, providing a range of up to 101 miles on the highway and up to 154 miles in the city, depending on the riding mode and conditions. Charging is quick and convenient, thanks to its Level 2 charging capability, which can replenish the battery to 95% in about 4 hours using an optional fast charger.
The bike features a lightweight chassis, making it agile and easy to handle, especially in urban traffic. The suspension setup, with a 41mm telescopic front fork and a fully adjustable rear shock, ensures a comfortable ride over bumps and uneven roads. The brakes are equipped with Bosch ABS for reliable stopping power. The Zero S also comes with a customizable riding mode system, allowing you to choose between Eco, Sport, and other modes through the Zero app. This app connects via Bluetooth and provides real-time stats, riding analytics, and firmware updates.
The design is sleek and minimalist, with a digital display that shows critical information like speed, battery level, and range. The Zero S has storage space where a fuel tank would typically be, perfect for small items. It’s also highly customizable, with options for additional power tanks or storage upgrades. The bike’s maintenance-free belt drive and the absence of oil changes make it a low-cost and eco-friendly choice for riders who want to embrace the future of transportation.
