2023 Zero FXE Electric Motorcycle – Features and Specs
Design
Zero and Bill Webb worked on a special Zero FXS build in 2018. Overall, we intended to learn something that may be applied to future iterations of the Zero motorcycle. Too many conceptual builds go beyond what is safe or practicable for riding. When it came to his tactics, Bill Webb decided to change things up. He aspired for his work to be groundbreaking while yet feeling honest and current. We weren’t surprised by the bike’s reception among motorcyclists. It wasn’t only our industry that was enthralled.
The Bike of Tomorrow. Now Available.
State-of-the-art construction Motivated by the San Francisco idea, created by great design. Intended to revolutionize how we think about transportation, this level of affordable luxury has never before offered such a seamless fusion of power and panache.
Technology
The FXE has revolutionary LED head and tail lights, as well as a full-color, bonded TFT instrument cluster, so it can easily outshine motorcycles several times its size. It uses the innovative Zero ZF 75-5 power plant and Cypher II technology as its foundation: intelligence and force.
Performance Profile
Easily conquer your local supermoto circuit or city streets with only the press of a button and a selection of optimized riding modes. The Zero FXE may be configured to either an Eco or Sport mode. Get ride data or fine-tune performance from the convenience of your mobile device.
Experience
Since no motorcycle has this much power while being as light as the FXE, having no gearbox or clutch and requiring a more natural riding position makes it the most user-friendly vehicle on the road. This bike becomes an inseparable part of its rider. Never before has it been so relaxing to sail through heavy traffic. The FXE motorcycle looks as sleek as it rides.
Accessible
Zero Motorcycles, the industry standard in affordable electric motorcycles, has released a new model.
Dash
A 5″ color TFT screen that is bonded together. The Zero FXE dashboard displays all the necessary data, such as your current speed, battery life, power output, riding mode selection, and estimated recharge time. Connect your phone to get detailed ride data or to create a personalized secondary dashboard.
Motor
The Zero FXE motor may provide as much as 78 lb-ft of torque. The air-cooled Interior Permanent Magnet (IPM) motor, working in tandem with regenerative braking, delivers outstanding performance and breathtaking acceleration.
There is no need for cumbersome, expensive, or complex liquid cooling. There is no need for any standard procedures. Simply without complication, the most efficient, powerful, and compact engine on the market is this one right here.
Suspension
The Zero FXE’s Showa suspension allows for maximum adjustability and great flexibility. To smooth out the imperfections in the road, the Zero FXE has around 9 inches of rear travel and enhanced damping.
Wheels and Tires
The Zero FXE’s nimble handling matches its sharp lines. A set of gorgeous cast alloy wheels shod with Pirelli Diablo Rosso II tires is designed to provide maximum traction. A hollow front axle decreases unsprung weight, improving handling.
Brakes
Stop safely and securely with the help of Bosch’s anti-lock braking system (ABS). The gadget has been tested under every possible condition and has been shown to enhance deceleration under severe braking significantly. The brakes are applied by levers that may be positioned ergonomically. Each rider has the option of activating or disabling the anti-lock braking system.
Direct Drive
Take out the heavy parts, such as the chains, gears, shifters, and clutches. Smoothly accelerate without making a sound as you transform energy into forward motion. In the Zero FXE, the engine is directly connected to the transmission. It has a carbon fiber belt that transfers power from its innovative powertrain to the back wheels.
Onboard Charger
The Zero FXE’s built-in charger can provide 650 W and may be used with any standard wall outlet. Quick Chargers are available as an accessory and may shorten charging times.
Frame
The Zero FXE’s aluminum aircraft-grade frame is an engineering marvel. When fully assembled, the sleek Zero FXE weighs 298 pounds.
