As well as Zero motorcycle dealer in Missoula Montana advised " Do not consider getting a Zero for winter use in Butte Montana because it gets too cold to charge the current lithium technology batteries without taking the vehicle indoors" to Boot sleeping in your car while it takes 12-18 hours to charge it at colder than -20°F can be life-threatening. Lacking infrastructure for plug in teck. As well as 4x4 in off the shelf pre built.
I'm tempted to do a series hybrid take this 2.6 narrow block bolt it to a gen head direct wired to the motor and run it like a freight train locomotive lets turn this thing up to RUN 9... not shure it works like that.
