Electric motorcycles have made significant technological strides in recent years, but widespread infrastructure still hampers the market’s growth. Outside of large city centers and common travel routes, charging stations are few and far between. Those numbers take a nosedive when going from suburban to rural areas, which presents additional challenges for electric dual-sport motorcycles.
Despite those hurdles, Energica introduced the first-ever electric adventure bike with the all-new Experia in May, 2022. It won’t be alone for long though, as Zero Motorcycles recently gained European type-approval for its upcoming DSR/X electric ADV. Previously, a string of U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) filings revealed that Zero planned to offer the new e-adventurer in 14.4 kWh and 15.3 kWh Z-Force battery configurations.
