Engaget Zero S Review, Pics and Video
« on: April 24, 2009, 03:01:36 AM »

Once the batteries are < $1000 these bikes will be really affordable.  That is if they don't find another reason to keep the price near $10K.

Saiki wanted to stress the upgradability of the bike: the battery is said to last five years, and while right now a new unit will set you back a massive $5,000 (half the cost of the bike), by the time you'll need one Neal hopes a replacement will have dropped to just $1,000 or less, and despite that will offer even more power. The same goes for the motor -- if you have more kilowatt-hours on tap you can pair that with a bigger motor for more power over the same range.
