Zero Motorcycles

Indian EV manufacturer Ola Electric has made another extraordinary announcement, launching a new range of radically cheap electric scooters, complete with swappable batteries, that'll set riders back a fraction of the cost of a typical ebike.

R&D shop White Motorcycle Concepts has punched a gaping hole in a Zero SR/S electric motorcycle to reduce aerodynamic drag by 10%. The prototype bike now goes faster, and can deliver extended range at highway speeds.

In a bid to draw in more riders and make e-motos more accessible, Zero has unveiled a new 'All Access' plan. At its core are six newly developed motorcycles, all priced under $10,000. The first two models from this pack were unveiled at EICMA 2024.

Ola's super-cheap electric roadsters caused a global stir at launch, but issues are now becoming apparent, from the subpar base variant lacking basic safety equipment, to an embarrassing case of outright plagiarism of Zero Motorcycles’ press photos.

Zero has collaborated with San Francisco's Huge Design to produce this super-futuristic take on the brand's SR/S electric sports tourer. Snub-nosed and snub-tailed with a wide slot of a headlight, the SR-X looks like it dropped out of Cyberpunk 2077.

Responding to numerous rider requests, Zero Motorcycles has launched a torquey electric adventure bike called the DSR/X that's designed for cruising the highway, navigating twisty mountain roads or motoring along dusty desert tracks.

Last September, Polaris and Zero Motorcycles announced their "rEV'd up" program, aimed at the development of electric off-road vehicles. The first product to result from that initiative is Polaris' Ranger XP Kinetic UTV, which can now be reserved.

Zero's 2022 SR/F and SR/S electric motorcycle lineup gets a sneaky boost in battery capacity for 2022, as well as a new, cheaper SR model. But the news isn't all good – some of these bikes' features will be locked behind a new pay-to-upgrade system.

Zero has given its electric supermoto a bit of a pampering, dropping the removable battery modules for a larger integrated pack and spiffing up the bodywork with a new design approach. The new 2022 FXE also cuts the price from a dual-battery FXS.

This Washington-based company will build you a murdered-out, snub-nosed electric brawler of a motorcycle, at a fantastical price. It'd be the perfect bike for a post-apocalyptic hellscape, provided that hellscape still has power points to plug into.

We've been waiting a decade for Zero to make a fully faired bike to extend the range of its excellent electric motorcycles, but Zero has held back, waiting for the chance to do it properly. Finally, here it is: the new SR/S sports tourer.

The new SR/F is here, and it's the biggest thing that's happened at Zero Motorcycles since the SR sent us into hysterics back in 2014. Built from the ground up with significant leaps in torque, horsepower, charge speed and connected tech, this 120mph monster will be a wild ride.
