Battery Packs

• DUAL BATTERY PACKS: The Z e-1 ABS EV motorcycle is powered by two removable lithium-ion battery packs and a compact brushless electric motor. This provides the power for responsive performance without the weight and inertia of an internal combustion engine. Whether you're commuting to work or enjoying a fun ride around town, get where you need to go with clean EV power.
• CHARGING TIMES: Each battery pack features a charge indicator so riders can gauge how much battery life is left. Charging times may vary based on remaining battery life. If battery life is at 0%, it can take up to approximately four hours (per battery) to fully charge. If battery life is above 20%, it can take up to approximately two hours (per battery) to reach a full charge.
• EASY RECHARGE: Thanks to the regenerative system, the energy of deceleration is recycled back to the battery, contributing to a longer cruising range. Riders have three options when it comes time to charge the two battery packs. The battery packs can be removed to be charged away from the motorcycle, either by direct charge or by a charging dock in a different location, or you can plug the charger directly into the motorcycle in a dry environment via the offboard charging adapter. The offboard charging adapter is pre-installed on the motorcycle as standard equipment. One charger is included with the motorcycle and can be plugged into a standard 120V household outlet.
