Emissions Information
The Zero S/DS electric motorcycle is a true freeway
capable zero emissions vehicle under California Air
Resources Board (CARB), U.S. Federal (EPA), and
European Union standards. It uses no gasoline or
other liquid fuel. It has no tailpipe and therefore no
tailpipe emissions. It also has no exhaust or
evaporative emissions. Because the Zero S/DS runs
solely on electricity, it is the only kind of vehicle which
actually gets cleaner in terms of air pollution each
year, as the electricity grid gets cleaner and more
renewable. Zero Emissions Vehicles (ZEV’s) offer
greater efficiency, and can help solve the serious air
pollution, global warming, and energy security
problems facing the country and the world.
Public Charging Stations
There are more public charging stations coming on-
line every day and there may be some in your area.
You can charge from a public charging station with
the optional J1772 S/DS Zero motorcycle accessory.
These stations are often available at a variety of
locations including shopping centers, city parking lots,
airports, hotels, government offices, and other
businesses. We recommend that you search the
internet for locations in your area. For example,
search for “charging stations.”
