Zero Motorcycles has announced a fast-charging upgrade due to launch in 2027. Its new CCS port and DC fast-charging module will become available for the company’s Street and Dual Sport category motorcycles later next year, enabling charging from 20% to 80% in under 30 minutes on a 17.3kWh battery pack. Notably, the system will also be offered as a retrofit upgrade for 2022-on bikes, allowing current owners to benefit from the latest charging advancements.
“DC fast charging is an important benefit for making the transition to electric mobility and will attract more riders to the Zero brand,” said Pierre-Martin Bos, CEO of Zero Motorcycles. “We don’t just want to offer this technology on future Zero models, we also want to give thousands of existing Zero owners the opportunity to benefit from this new capability, further increasing the value of their bike.
“We’re doing it at the right time; DC fast charging continues to expand rapidly across Europe and North America, giving riders greater freedom to travel farther and faster.”
