2024 Zero S
As the gateway into the Zero Motorcycles naked street model line, the all-new Zero S delivers bigger thrills than ever before. Though its name may be familiar, the 2024 Zero Motorcycles S is a totally new machine with entirely improved capabilities. A new battery, a whole new style, and a brand-new motor all make the Zero S a compelling candidate for your daily ride. Electrify your ride with the 2024 Zero S to make any regular ride around town anything but regular.
Z-FORCE 75-7
The all-new Z-Force 75-7 motor is Zero’s latest in a long line of enhanced thermal efficiency, passively air-cooled, interior permanent magnet AC motors. The 2024 Z-Force 75-7 shares the exterior motor hardware of the powerhouse SR/F to shed heat fast but utilizes different interior architecture to maximize power and drastically reduce weight. The result is overall cost savings for a category killer in the naked street electric class.
POWER PIVOT
Just like the best naked electric motorcycles from Zero, the 2024 S features the proprietary concentric motor and swingarm pivot design, providing optimal architecture to ensure constant drive-belt tension and maximum torque delivery to the rear wheel. A custom-designed, large-bearing swingarm pivot allows ample space for the high-performance motor while allowing a slim chassis waist to enhance rider ergonomics and bike maneuverability.
EFFORTLESS CONTROL
The 2024 Zero S is updated with Zero’s latest Cypher III+ operating system with a suite of downloadable performance upgrades. Bosch Motorcycle Stability Control (MSC), is equal parts brawn and brains. Effortless power is paired with intuitive control, creating the new standard for premium performance at an incredibly attainable price point. The Zero S is an adaptable motorcycle and powertrain combination that navigates diverse road terrain and conditions, effortlessly.
CYPHER III+
Cypher III+ sets the benchmark as the premier operating system for electric motorcycles, orchestrating the Zero S with precision. The S is infinitely customizable and comes with the ability to add new Cypher Features through the NextGen app. Elevate your riding experience to the next level with the Zero S.
ARSENAL OF RIDE MODES
The Zero S's arsenal of ride modes allows the rider to customize the bike's performance through Zero’s intuitive NextGen app and dash interface. The S navigates the road no matter the conditions with Rain, Eco, Standard, Sport, and Canyon modes pre-loaded along with a virtually infinite number of custom-tuned mode adjustments available.
EFFORTLESS CONNECTION
The Zero S is not just connected, but truly "smart" with the Cypher III+ OS and OTA updates. Customize the dash, access the NextGen app with standard features, and enjoy limitless possibilities. Futureproof intelligence and unmatched power make the S the ultimate ride with seamless connection in every detail.
THE CONNECTED BIKE
The Zero S is connected through cellular networks, transmitting info to the NextGen app at all times. The app offers access to a host of ride information giving the rider the ability to monitor the bike in four main areas: Bike Status & Alerts, Ride Data Sharing, Charging Status, and OTA System Updates.
ADVANCED APP
Zero’s NextGen app works with the dash and Cypher III+ to create a feature-rich ecosystem with access to new Cypher Features where upgrades can be selected with the tap of a finger. Faster Charging, On-Dash Navigation, and Parking Mode are just a few of the features available for you to choose from. Other features already included for free within the app include ride mode selection and creation, personalized dash options, scheduled and target-based charging, and so much more.
Z-FORCE 14.4 BATTERY PACK
The Z-FORCE 14.4 kWh lithium-ion battery requires no maintenance or upkeep and makes the S capable of 154 miles of city range. Riders can extend their range even further with the available Power Tank accessory (dealer install required). The battery’s industry-leading power and energy density combined with an aluminum heat-sink housing and thermal transfer interface ensure consistent cell cooling and maximum long-term powertrain performance.
RAPID CHARGE SYSTEM
Our Rapid Charge System is customizable for various charging levels but the baseline for the 2024 Zero S is a powerful 3.0 kW charger. To get even faster charging you can elect to have your dealer install the available Rapid Charging Module accessory and boost your onboard charging power. Or alternatively, you can use the included EVSE cord to charge the Zero S from any standard 110V wall outlet for an overnight charge.
Z-FORCE 75-7 MOTOR
The Z-Force 75-7 motor delivers 97 ft-lb of torque and 68 hp, effortlessly propelling the S to a top speed of 104 mph. Pairing Zero’s renowned internal permanent magnet brushless architecture and a passively air-cooled compact design creates class-leading performance and efficiency.
CHASSIS
Incredibly light. Unbelievably strong. The steel-trellis frame, custom swingarm and advanced Showa suspension deliver an athletic and intuitive riding experience. The powertrain is perfectly distributed, resulting in a weight-optimized/mass-centralized design, while a dual radial front brake system makes shedding speed as exhilarating as building it.
BOSCH MOTORCYCLE STABILITY CONTROL
Zero Motorcycles was the first electric motorcycle manufacturer to integrate Bosch’s MSC System and the Zero S continues that tradition. The MSC within the S is renowned for dynamic acceleration and improved stability regardless of road surface or conditions. All of this technology is behind the big dual 320x5 mm rotors in the front and the 240x4.5 mm in the rear.
SEE CLEARLY
Customize your dash or simply let the industry’s gold standard in auto-contrasting light sensing do all the work for you. Data fields abound when you choose the bike info you want displayed and read it clearly on the full-color 5” TFT display. Multi-mode navigation enables on-the-fly ride mode switching, cruise-control, heated grip control, and much more.
A DIALED RIDE
The S features Showa suspension components, including a Showa 43-mm Big Piston Separate Function (BPF) front fork with adjustable preload, compression, and rebound damping, as well as a Showa 40-mm piston, piggy-back reservoir rear shock with adjustable preload, compression, and rebound damping. This suspension setup allows riders to fine-tune the bike's handling and comfort according to their preferences and riding conditions.
RUBBER SIDE DOWN
The Zero S sits atop a pair of premium lightweight and strong cast 17” wheels wrapped in grippy and versatile Pirelli Diablo Rosso III tires. The reduced rotational mass of the wheels is fully taken advantage of thanks to the supple yet durable rubber from the race-inspired, three-season tires.
CARBON STRONG
The Zero S uses a belt drive system from long time Zero partner, Gates Carbon Drive. The Gates Carbon Drive is a clean, quiet, and low-maintenance alternative to noisy and dirty chain drives that can distract from the smooth and serene riding experience of electric motorcycles. The Gates Poly Chain® HTD® Carbon™ Belt is known for its durability, efficiency, and smooth operation, making it the perfect choice for the Zero Street Category.
LIGHT THE WAY
See the road ahead like never before and ensure it always sees you with the custom-made full LED headlight and LED taillight with opalescent light-pipe for unrivaled lateral visibility.
ROOM TO SPARE
Innovating beyond gas tanks, Zero Motorcycles introduces more groundbreaking integrated storage in the Zero S. Discover storage in the "frunk" or in discreet stash spots hidden under the seat. Riders can carry even more with optional motorcycle storage accessories from the most trusted names in powersports. Embrace the new era of electric convenience and versatility.
