This completely changes the utility of electric motorcycles by eliminating long recharging times.

“Zero continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible in the electric motorcycle space,” said Todd Andersen, Zero’s VP of Marketing, Sales and Aftersales. “Riders who’ve been waiting for more range and faster charging don’t have to wait any longer to go electric.”

The 2018 Zero S, SR, DS, DSR, and FX models look better than ever with bold and sophisticated new colours and graphics. From the Graphene Black Metallic with gold wheels of the Zero DSR to the Silicon Silver Metallic paint of the Zero S, the updated colour palette delivers a stunning visual update to Zero’s line.

Zero invented the first mobile App that allowed riders to tailor their bike’s performance from their smartphone (available for iOS and Android) and this year they’ve taken it to another level. Firmware updates that used to require a trip to the dealer can now be easily performed directly from any compatible smartphone (available on 2017 and 2018 models. See Zero dealers for details). This makes it easier than ever for owners to ensure their bike is using state-of-the-art firmware to deliver maximum performance in every condition.

The upgrades are being delivered at the same price as last year’s models with the exception of a £500 price increase to the flagship Zero SR and Zero DSR. The new Charge Tank is a factory-installed option priced with an MSRP of £2,300. 2018 motorcycles will begin arriving at authorized European Zero Motorcycles dealers starting in November 2017.
