Company History
Zero evolved from garage prototypes to a mature EV lineup with refined batteries, controllers, and thermal management. The riding experience—instant torque, low maintenance, silent pace—won commuters and back-road fans. Over time, chassis, brakes, and electronics reached big-brand polish, while dealer/service networks expanded. Zero’s impact is normalization: electric motorcycles as reliable, everyday tools with real performance and predictable ownership.
