Zero Motorcycles issued a press release today announcing that they’ve received their Certificate of Conformity from the Environmental Protection Agency and have been rated equivalent to 455 miles per gallon under EPA standards!
That’s great news, as this means the Zero S and DS (no word on the Zero X) are now fully street legal machines nationally, as they have already received Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards certification and even have the equivalent to that in Canada.
The other big news is that this puts them into qualification for a 10% federal tax credit and any state tax credits also available. That changes the street price from $9,950 to $8,996 for most U.S. buyers.
Pretty awesome news from Zero.
