Zero LS1 2026

The Zero LS1 is Zero's successful first foray into the electric scooter segment. Its riding performance is particularly strong: Thanks to its low centre of gravity, centralised masses and clean setup, the LS1 is surprisingly dynamic, stable and even really entertaining for an A1 scooter. In addition, there is a clever battery concept, very good range values and high suitability for everyday use, at least with two batteries and full storage space. The scooter's main weaknesses are the display, which is too dark, the ergonomics, which are not quite ideal for taller riders, and the somewhat fiddly removal of the batteries. Overall, however, Zero has brought a remarkably mature and serious electric scooter onto the market, which will appeal to riders who are looking for an inconspicuous, practical and at the same time convincing electric vehicle in terms of driving dynamics.
