Calculation
EPA Electric vs. Gas Equivalent: 33.705 kwh/gal
Energy used riding the Zero S/DS: 3.7 kwh
Range of the Zero S/DS: 50 miles
MPG= 50 miles/[3.7 kwh/33.705 kwh]
MPG= 455.45
Emissions
The Zero S and DS do not require any gasoline and,
as a result, do not get ‘miles per gallon.’ For the
sake of emissions comparisons, the EPA estimates
there to be about 33.705 kilowatt hours in one gallon
of gasoline (33.705 kwh/gal). When operating a Zero
S or DS we estimate that you will use 3.7 kwh before
recharging. Based on the EPA estimate, 3.7 kwh is
equivalent to .10978 gallons. With that .10978 gallons
a rider can travel up to 80 kilometers (50 miles). This
means that the Zero S or DS achieves incredible
efficiency at 455.45 MPG.
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.
