With e-boost, riders can access increased power for approximately 15 seconds. When activated, acceleration is stronger and top speed is increased: 64 km/h >> 75 km/h (ECO), 88 km/h >> 99 km/h* (ROAD). [62 km/h >> 72 km/h (ECO), 85 km/h >> 99 km/h* km/h (ROAD) for Z e-1] *EUR spec: Top speed limited to 99 km/h in Europe.
Lifting the storage box cover reveals 5 litres of easy-access space for small items like gloves or rain gear. (Max 3 kg)
Having no clutch to operate—riders need only twist the throttle—greatly simplifies operation and contributes to a rider-friendly package.
4.3” all-digital TFT colour instrumentation gives the cockpit a high-tech, high-grade appearance, while being able to connect to your ride wirelessly offers an enhanced motorcycling experience.
In addition to normal operation (ROAD), riders may also choose speed-limited operation (ECO). Top speed in ROAD Mode is 88 km/h (85 km/h for Z e-1), while top speed in ECO Mode is limited to 64 km/h (62 km/h for Z e-1).
Relaxed rider triangle accommodates a wide range of rider sizes and riding situations, contributing to the rider-friendly character. The relatively upright riding position and slightly foot-forward footpeg position put the rider in a position to control the bike while also offering rider comfort.
Although the Ninja e-1 and Z e-1 are primarily commuter models, Kawasaki engineers worked hard to ensure that they offered the riding excitement for which Kawasaki motorcycles are famous. A carefully crafted balance of confident handling and light manoeuvrability will have even new riders looking forward to their daily commute.
The new Z e-1 balances the aggressive styling of Z Supernaked models with a fresh, futuristic expression of Kawasaki EV models. Where ICE Supernaked models highlight the engine and exhaust as key styling elements, the more compact motor and lack of an exhaust system creates a much higher ground clearance, which is balanced by a lower “fuel tank.” All-LED lighting contributes to a modern, high-tech image.
Thanks to the regenerative system, when the rider rolls off the throttle the energy of deceleration is recycled back to the battery. This contributes to a longer cruising range.
Front and rear disc brakes provide sure stopping performance, while ABS adds a measure of reassurance.
Kawasaki’s first roadgoing EVs are powered by a compact brushless electric motor offering strong off-the-line acceleration and lowend response. Rider-selectable power levels contribute to rider confidence, while unique EV features like e-boost and WALK Mode add to the fun experience. The rider-friendly electric motor is also clean and quiet.
At only 140 kg and 135 kg respectively, the light weight of the Ninja and Z e-1 contributes to a rider-friendly package.
Rated at 5.0 kW (9.0 kW max), the clean and quiet motor produces quick response and strong low-end power, facilitating control and contributing to quick acceleration from a stop.
The Ninja e-1 and Z e-1 feature dual removable lithium-ion batteries. Multiple charging options add flexibility for minimal added inconvenience to your daily routine. Dual lithium-ion batteries weigh 11.5 kg each. Offboard charging* can be done by connecting the bike to a dedicated charger powered by a household outlet. Alternatively, the batteries can be removed and charged. Charging time per battery is approximately 3.7 hours for a full charge, 1.6 hours for a partial (20% >> 85%) charge. *Offboard charging refers to charging systems not native to the vehicle itself. Since the battery charger (which takes AC power and converts it to the DC power needed to charge the batteries) is located outside the bike, this is an example of offboard charging.
A chassis based on Kawasaki’s Ninja/Z400 motorcycles delivers sure-footed handling that riders will find reassuring. Built by a motorcycle manufacturer highly acclaimed for their reliability, the Ninja e-1 and Z e-1 offer the same solid build quality as all Kawasaki motorcycles. The Ninja e-1 and Z e-1 feature a trellis frame similar in design to that of Kawasaki’s flagship model, the Ninja H2. Kawasaki’s advanced dynamic rigidity analysis was used to ensure optimum rigidity with light weight. The trellis-style frame design contributes significantly to the bikes’ low curb mass.
Powered by an electric motor, the Ninja and Z e-1 create no emissions when being operated.
This convenient mode assists with manoeuvring in a parking lot. When engaged, opening the throttle moves the bike forward at walking speed. Closing the throttle past the “zero” point moves the bike in reverse.
