The first American company to introduce an electric powered street motorcycle to the market is now taking orders for the high performace Zero S.
Scheduled to start shipping withing the next 30 days, the Zero is an all electric powered motorcyle with a lightweight design.
The Zero is green in both design and power. It uses a completely non-toxic lithium ion array and most of the motorcycle is fully recyclable. The power pack that powers the Zero S recharges in less than four hours while plugged into a standard 110V or 220V outlet and is landfill approved. It has zero emissions and is cost effective, operating at less than one cent per mile. Very eco-friendly.
“The innovation behind the Zero S is what separates it from the competition. The Zero S is a high performance motorcycle that also happens to be fully electric and green. The fact that it’s electric means not having to get gas and reduced maintenance.” noted Neal Saiki, inventor and founder of Zero Motorcycles.
Priced at $9,950, it qualifies for the federal 10% plugin-in tax credit.
