Power Pack
The 2012 Zero X/XU/MX leverage a completely new
battery cell chemistry and configuration. Not only do
the Zero XU and the Zero X have a 42 and 38 mile
UDDS range respectively, but the power pack is
designed to last the life of the motorcycle. The
integrated onboard charger on the XU and the stand-
alone charger on the X/MX minimize charge time.
The MX is capable of going 90 minutes on the track
or 120 minutes on the trail. The X/XU/MX charging
systems can work in parallel with Zero’s quick charge
accessories to cut charge times by 50%.
The battery is located within the ZF3 power pack and
requires no special break-in period. The charging
time is the same if connected to 120 V AC or 240 V
AC. The charger output will be the same. The normal
recharging time of the power pack to 100% is usually
less than 3 hours in ambient temperatures. Out of
the normal temperature range charging and run-time
times will vary. The batteries should not be used
outside of the range of -7°C - 71°C (20°F - 160°F);
the Battery Management System (BMS) will turn off the
motor controller outside of this range.
It is required that you leave the motorcycle on the
charger if you expect it to sit in storage or unused for
over 7 days.
