2016 Zero DS Electric Review | zero electric dirt bike

Researching Zero's updated and medicated 2015 DS electric motorcycle, I noted a comment made about another online review. "E-vehicles will never be significant in the marketplace until their price comes down to about a quarter of the cost of a similar new ICE (internal combustion) vehicle." That means the bike I'm reviewing here needs to cost $1999 new before it will sell in significant numbers. The commenter's logic was obtuse, but though similar comments are less extreme – cost parity is what the naysayers often demand – the idea is the same. EVs should cost less than ICE-rs because they are somehow less than an internal combustion vehicle. But what EV manufacturers want you to understand is that they are actually more, not less. More comfortable, more fun, easier to ride fast and, best of all, they offer more performance for the kind of riding a street rider actually does. Riding the updated DS highlights these advantages. Yeah, 40 miles doesn't sound like a lot, but for riders in dense urban areas, such as the San Francisco Bay Area where I live, an 80-mile round trip gets me to almost everywhere I need to go.
