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 this technology is behind the big dual 320x5 mm rotors in the front and the 240x4.5 mm in the rear.

City:
This is intended to provide a reasonable estimate of the riding range that can be expected during "stop-and-go" operation typically found in urban areas, such as that prescribed by the "City Test" duty cycle within SAE J2982. Actual range will vary based upon actual riding conditions and habits.

Power pack:
Z-Force® Li-Ion intelligent integrated
Max capacity:
Maximum capacity tends to be the electric vehicle industry’s choice for reporting the maximum amount of energy that can be stored in a vehicle’s power pack. About kWh : Where gasoline vehicles use gallons, electric vehicles frequently use kilowatt hours (kWh) to measure the total possible ‘fuel’ or energy storage capacity. The Formula: Maximum kWh = (# of cells) * (cell Amp-hour capacity rating) * (cell max voltage rating)
14.4 kWh
Nominal capacity:
Nominal capacity is the most accurate measure of the amount of usable energy that can be stored in a vehicle’s power pack. It differs from maximum capacity because it is calculated using an average voltage that is more often ‘the norm’ rather than a maximum which is rarely seen. About kWh: Where gasoline vehicles use gallons, electric vehicles frequently use kilowatt hours (kWh) to measure the total possible ‘fuel’ or energy storage capacity. The Formula: Nominal kWh = (# of cells) * (cell Amp-hour capacity rating) * (cell nominal voltage rating)
12.6 kWh
Charger type:
3.0 kW, integrated
Charge time (110 V):
Note that charge times from 0 to 95% are referenced because the charging rate/speed is linear within this range (e.g. 0 to 47.5% or 47.5% to 95% would take half as long as the given values). Charging from 95% to 100% takes 30 minutes, regardless of charging method, as Zero’s system is optimizing the battery’s health and long-term capacity.

Equivalent fuel economy (city):
Electric vehicle fuel economy is measured in Miles Per Gallon equivalent (MPGe) which indicates, via an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) prescribed formula, how far an electric vehicle can go using the same amount of energy as is contained in one gallon of gasoline. Electric vehicles are much more efficient than their internal combustion engine (ICE) counterparts. An electric vehicle powertrain can turn above 90% of the energy supplied to it into usable motive power. An ICE powertrain can only turn about 25-30% of its supplied energy into motive power. The result is that an electric vehicle powertrain can operate at over three times the efficiency of its ICE counterparts. The Formula: Equivalent Fuel Economy, City = (EPA UDDS range) / (Power Pack nominal capacity) x 33.7 (EPA kWh per gallon of gasoline)
380 MPGe (0.62 l/100 km)
Typical cost to recharge:
This indicates the average cost to recharge a fully drained power pack. More often, riders will be charging a partially drained power pack and will have a lower cost of recharge. The actual cost of recharging will always be dictated by the amount of charge put into the power pack and the cost of electricity flowing from the particular outlet. The Formula: Typical cost to recharge = (Average consumer cost per KWh) X (Power Pack nominal capacity) / (charging efficiency). Charging efficiency is 0.94 for all 2013-later models.
