ZEEHO brings pulse and panache to EICMA show
with innovative C!TY SPORT gamechanger and 2024 vision
7 November, 2023, EICMA, Milan, Italy
ZEEHO, the progressive and dedicated electric two-wheel urban mobility brand on display at the vast EICMA show in Milan, Italy, switched on visitors, media and onlookers to a vibrant future with an illuminating presentation press conference on 7, November, 2023.
Created in 2020 as the envelope-pushing electric sub-brand of CFMOTO, ZEEHO strives to be electric, eco and utterly functional but also alternative and without compromise. Last year at EICMA, ZEEHO unveiled three new tech-driven models which are AE8, AE6 and Magnet Concept, focused squarely on urban commuting efficiency but with radically cool design and identity. Twelve months later, ZEEHO was back in Milan and had doubled its output as well as taking great satisfaction in presenting the latest C!TY Series, to slot alongside AE and MAGNET lines.
C!TY SPORT: Inspire freedom
C!TY series took the spotlight at the press conference. It wasn’t long before ZEEHO was anxious to satisfy the appetite for more. The covers were soon torn away from the C!TY Series with the C!TY SPORT at the top of the bill.
Why the excitement? ZEEHO was keen to inspire freedom with this electric motorcycle orientated for fun meaning the limits of the city just became a little wider. Drawing inspiration from the concept of Morse code, C!TY SPORT harnesses the language of electric pulses to unlock a world of boundless possibilities. It’s offered in two distinctive extra-urban colors, the Space Silver conveys a high-tech and futuristic feeling, while the knight black features a generous matte black to make it look like a Dark Night.
The design emphasizes its avant-garde and dynamic philosophy with a matrix front mask, integrated dual LED front lights with automotive-grade light technology and a minimalist vertical taillight that uses clean vertical lines with a dynamic drone-inspired design. Such design blends the urban and extra urban elements and brings a bright and clear vision in every condition.
Under the skin was a robust dual-spar aluminum alloy frame that has passed the -20℃ strict temperature test and 6000km+ high intensity durability test to withstand the demands of various conditions.
Furthermore, the Y-shaped rims with more structural strength can efficiently reduce the wind resistance and improve the range, the all-rounder tires provides excellent stability and a comfortable riding experience. The adjustable front fork with upside down layout and monoshock absorber with adjustable preload guarantee the stability and reliability. The 240mm/200mm wave-shaped discs and dual-piston calipers, which contribute to rapid heat dissipation, fast response and better braking effect. All these vital components combine to enhance the high performance capabilities of C!TY SPORT.
The C!TY SPORT comes with a customized 60V32Ah high-density lithium battery that will last 80km at 25km/h average speed to suit urban pursuits. The bike is equipped with a 700W charger that will achieve a 0-80% fill in less than three hours. And its intelligent BMS provides over 30 functions for battery protection, self-learning and analysis. The mid motor boasts exceptional efficiency and energy savings, thanks to the highly integrated two-in-one motor and reducer assembly. Besides, the safety insulation level of the motor reaches H level up to 180°C.
The digital twin display enhances the user experience with intelligent human-vehicle interaction, offering key functions such as keyless entry, one-click sharing, automatic hold, and energy recovery settings through the ZEEHO RIDE APP. Meanwhile, the LCD screen provides a comprehensive overview of vehicle information. The speed and type of acceleration can be set between two modes ECO and SPORT.
ZEEHO are pumped about the potential of the C!TY SPORT, and the quest to empower riders for even more versatility inspired two concept editions that the brand decided to show alongside the launch model at EICMA.
C!TY CROSS: Goodbye boundaries
The C!TY CROSS reflects the spirit of urban adventure with a special color scheme, spoke hubs and adventure tires. A diverse range of accessories including brake lever, CNC cylinder reservoir cap, front rack, side stand guard, motor guard, off-road footpegs, side racks and comfort seat are available for riders to DIY their bikes. When riders can choose the accessories that resonate with their preferences, they can experience the joy of DIY and unlocking a world of possibilities.
C!TY MOTARD: Gen-Z electrifies to greatness
C!TY MOTARD takes the C!TY SPORT as a starting point. It has a unique design, daring and dynamic, highlighted by an impactful graphic that represents the high-tech base. The C!TY MOTARD sticks even more to the asphalt and winds the fun factor to “11 from 10” through a clear sporty, Supermoto spirit.
The new sleek front end has been entirely redesigned with high performance technical parts: a machined aluminum front wheel, 37mm diameter front forks, radial monoblock caliper and a carbon brake disk cover mounted on a shortened mudguard. The aesthetic is unmistakable with the curved surfaces, color, logos and racing number plate and a beefier and sportier aspect; underlined by the reworked riding position with a lower and flatter handlebar. It perfectly mix the motard feeling with futuristic styling elements on C!TY SPORT.
AE8 ART: A contemporary statement
In contrast to the high-cool mobility of the C!TY series, the AE series represents a commitment to high-quality mobility. AE8 from the AE series is a sporty electric scooter designed for urban youth, but it doesn't stop there. Now, ZEEHO introduced AE8 ART, showcasing a distinct lifestyle and opening up new possibilities.
Thanks to a powerful collaboration with Italian creatives “Truly Design”. The inspiration of this livery starts from the graffiti and the street art world, that have reinterpreted and expressed through modern abstract figures and geometrical lines. The new colors of AE8 ART is inspired by ZEEHO brand colors. To keep the livery design closer to the graffiti world, there are some paint drops that create a natural interruption between shapes and colors. Feel the street. The graffiti and counter-culture vibe fit the environment that the AE8 likes to dominate. Truly Design prepared a fantastic artistic wall behind the AE8 ART at the booth to offer the best visual experience. There is no other look quite like this in town, never mind the many halls of EICMA: don’t miss it.
