DURABILITY AND VERSATILITY

The 2023 Zero DS represents outstanding value in Australia. Never before have we seen a new Zero Motorcycle under $15,000 including on the road costs. Added to this – the 2023 DS is a versatile dual-purpose bike which is as capable on the gravel as it is on the bitumen.  Featuring 106 N-m of torque and 34 kW of peak power. Crossing from smooth asphalt to loose gravel fire roads? All good. Change performance profiles at the press of a button to master any terrain. The Zero DS is pre-programmed with Eco or Sport modes and performance can be fully customized using the Zero Motorcycles app where you can also see detailed ride stats.

EASY AND LOW MAINTENANCE

No special equipment required: your standard household outlets can be used as fueling stations for a fraction of the cost of petrol. Plug in at night and start the day with a full tank. The 2023 DS charges as standard at 1.3kWs – meaning the 7.2kWh pack will be fully charged in around 5 hours. No need to replace clogged filters or dirty oil. The Z-Force® powertrain eliminates the fossil burner mess, trading oil, spark plugs, clutches and filters for a motor with a single moving part. The Zero DS’s ripping acceleration is delivered through a carbon fiber belt that directly connects the motor to the rear wheel. Chain maintenance is a thing of the past.

Custom-tuned for Zero by Showa, the Zero DS suspension offers 7 inches of plush travel that enables you to tackle virtually any terrain thrown your way. The entire suspension system can be fully and easily adjusted to glide over any city street or rip down your favorite fire road.

EFFORTLESS CONNECTION

The Zero DS comes equipped with a full colour display to project the specs you need: speed, state of charge, power output, selected riding mode and more. Sync with your smartphone to customize the information that is displayed on your dash. Shred confidently on anything from twisting bitumen to loose fire roads, the Zero DS’s Pirelli MT-60 tires provide superior traction, excellent durability and road feel. The tires are mounted to durable cast alloy wheels and a hollow front axle shaves unsprung weight to improve handling.
