Zero SR™
Max Performance
More power. Higher top speed. Greater acceleration.
The “R” configuration of the Zero S is designed for
riders who simply want to go faster and accelerate
harder. Aptly named on account of its performance
and ability to dominate, the Zero SR features a larger
660 amp motor controller that provides 25% more
power and 56% more torque. To accommodate the
increased power, the Zero SR motor uses higher
temperature magnets to ensure better performance
during extended durations at higher speeds.
Capable of doing 0-60 mph in under 4 seconds with
a top speed of over 100 mph using direct drive, the
Zero SR offers spirited riders an edge in competitive
riding. The only motorcycle in the lineup available in
red, the tank section of the motorcycle is highlighted
with a sophisticated “Zero SR” emblem and the tail
section features the motor controller with a bold and
elegantly designed heat sink.
