Electric Weekend - Zero DSR and MG ZS EV (Part 1)

An electric weekend, and a good one at that.

The weekend of 18/19 July 2020 involved a two day EV treat.

The Saturday saw me spend the morning observing a free assessment ride in my capacity as a National Observer with IAM RoadSmart (the Institute of Advanced Motorists). Then, in the afternoon, following a fast charge, courtesy of the Charge Tank on my Zero DSR and our MyEnergi Zappi unit, I headed over to Nene Park in Peterborough to recce a route I planned from Warwickshire and back via some great country roads and beautiful villages.

I’ve left the natural sound of the bike in place whilst it’s being ridden, without any interruption from music.

Otherwise, I cover charging the Zero DSR quickly using the Charge Tank with the Zappi unit and the standard on-board charger as a way to enable the bike’s range to be extended in the course of a day. I also touch on the issues surrounding assured availability of fast chargers and the dilemmas that causes.

This is the first video of a two-part weekend.
