ABOUT THE Z-20b ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLE
The creation of the Z-20b was a carefully studied decision to incorporate a much better designed electric motorcycle that rationally stores the complex array of parts and wires comfortably and safely while bringing a new electrifying look to the vehicle. So successful has this model proved to be equally technically and functionally that EVTAMERICA has decided to have this model eventually replace the Z-20a in the next generation production. From all perspectives the use of this model as the only Z-20 that will be built in the future responds to technical as well as functional and financial considerations. The Z-20b provides an excellent driving experience to the driver because of weight displacement and other riding subtleties. The rational disposition of the interior; harness, parts, motor, controller and batteries translate into easier maintenance and warranted reliability.
These State of the Art two-wheeled All Electric motorcycles manufactured by EVTAMERICA are now powered by a 2500-watt 60-volt brushless hub motor capable of allowing them to reach a speed of approximately 45 miles per hour (equivalent to 72 kilometers per hour)*(SEE LATEST VIDEO). Factoring technical breakthroughs with the experience and understanding of the market demands and requirements in the United States, the Z-20 as well as the R-20 are debatably the most noteworthy electric vehicles to have appeared in the United States market at the end of 2007.
The 60-volt 2500-watt brushless hub motor is far more reliable, powerful and efficient (87%-92% efficiency rating) than any other electric motor used to date on any two wheeled electric vehicle built.
THE FUTURE OF EVTAMERICA
The future holds great promise and countless improvements. Our first production has taught us where our weaknesses lie and what to concentrate on to improve our vehicles and make them more reliable. Engineers and manufacturers continue to work together for EVTAMERICA to create a more powerful brushless hub motor and a more reliable controller. The resulting innovations will be incorporated to our vehicles as soon as they are developed and tested. Once again our goal and purpose is guaranteed functionality and reliability with the rationalization of electric power.
BATTERY TECHNOLOGY
Battery technology is of great interest to us. Instead of four (4) batteries –as used in the EVT-168 and EVT-4000e- we utilize five (5) 12-Volt batteries to energize this motor. We discovered through testing that five batteries gave us better performance than four larger sealed lead acid batteries. This innovation offers the same safety and cost efficiency of four lead acid batteries while providing better performance and durability in the function of a 60-volt motor. However, as always, we are keeping our eyes open and welcome battery technology innovation, as we have demonstrated with this change. We want to confirm that we are presently testing other battery technologies including lithium ion batteries and we feel pretty certain that there will be a breakthrough sooner than expected. Although we seriously considered using silicone batteries, we decided after extensive testing that they were not the right batteries to use in a motorcycle. Therefore, silicone batteries have been definitively discarded as a future option. On the other hand, although lithium ion is still very expensive, we feel that it offers significant advantages and cost effective considerations. As soon as we incorporate this technology to our products we will be offering it as an option with a specific price. More information on this optional battery technology will be forthcoming and we will keep you informed through our periodic updates. We hope to soon surprise you with a new product.
WHAT THE Z-20 AND R-20 ARE AND ARE NOT
The Z-20 and the R-20 are the ideal commuter vehicle to have. The 10 inch wheels (rim) and 3.5 inch wide tires provide traction and stability; the front and rear disc brakes, security; the double front and rear shock absorbers, steadiness; the longer seat, comfort; the added power, security and reliability. The Z-20 and the R-20 are not racing vehicles although capable of reaching a maximum speed of approximately 45 miles per hour (equivalent to 72 kilometers per hour)*. We feel that it is perfect to commute, to go back and forth to work, to go to the store, to comfortably park anywhere, to enjoy a silent ride, to save on gas, to feel free and clean. The Z-20 and the R-20 recharge batteries with the use of a state of the art charger exclusively made for EVTAMERICA by the Canadian Company Soneil. The charger is part and parcel of your purchase. You may plug the charger to any AC standard electric outlet anywhere in the world. There is an incorporated adapter for different kinds of current. Our charger will turn off automatically when the batteries are fully charged. |
BUSINESS GOAL
Strategically our business goal is to build in accordance to demand, so ideally every Z-20 or R-20 built will have an owner waiting even before it is totally assembled. This method rationalizes production and lowers cost. Whatever we can save will be reflected in the selling price of the Z-20 and the R-20

SELLING PRICE AFFECTATION BECAUSE OF THE FALLING UNITED STATES DOLLAR, ETC
We wish to inform that the 10% increase in the selling price of our 2009 Models is principally the direct result of a 30% decrease in the value of the United States Dollar in the last 18 months against the major international currencies. The falling United States Dollar translates into the simple fact that as it falls our dollar buys less in International Markets. Further aggravating our bottom line is the rising cost of fuels that not only affects our shipping costs but has also triggered inflationary waves internationally. The only option left to us was to increase the selling price of our units in order to partially compensate market realities. It has always been our policy to provide electric transportation at the most affordable price possible and we are doing our best to remain faithful to this principle.

Making its debut in the USA this coming September, EVTAMERICA unveils its powerful new Model:
The 2009 Z-30 |
2009 Z-30 versus 2007 Z-20b
The 2009 Z-30 is similar to the Z-20b in the body style which we have found to be far more suitable than the very attractive but older model Z-20a. The 2009 Z-30 however is quite different technically from the 2007 Z-20b in a number of ways. The following are the differences and improvements.
- The Z-30 has a 3000W three-phase, 60V brushless hub motor built on a 10 inch rim and sports 10 inch X 3.5, 6 ply DOT tires. This new motor is faster with 940 RPM.
- The new motor is capable of reaching speeds of approximately 45 MPH (72 KPH) but with superior torque and climbing ability. It has been kicked up by 500 watts.
- In order to cut costs as much as possible the 2009 Model Z-30 will only be available in two colors: Metallic Red or Metallic Blue.
- The body and frame of the Z-30 is much better in both quality and fit and will be assembled with 100% stainless steel nuts, bolts, washers and screws.
- The range may be reduced faintly if the motorcycle is used at full speed at all times, but should still exceed a 30-mile range at constant cruising speeds when used with fully charged batteries.*
- The totally new controller is a Kelly Controller specifically and specially designed and modified for the Z-30 and has a built in overheat preventer which reduces the amperage under extreme conditions. This will eliminate the need for cooling fans thus increasing reliability.
- The Z-30 will no longer have an alarm or a kick stand on and off relay which proved to be unreliable in our first production and became a common problem as a result of shipping. Our top priority is most definitely reliability. The Kill Switch will remain as a safety feature.
- The windshield and the trunk as well as wheel locks and an alarm kit will be offered as options and separately priced.
- We have acquired different and much better rear shock absorbers that are significantly stronger and provide a smoother ride for the Z-30.
- The front and rear coated disc brakes are of much better quality and fit; they are also DOT compliant.
- We have graduated to a superior DC Converter (60V to 12V) with an inline fuse for added safety as well as a much higher peak current.
- The new heavy duty harness installed is made to European standards, including shielded for ultrasound frequencies; they have also been simplified for functionality and are much better color coded to insure continuity and easier maintenance.
- The dash now contains a speedometer/odometer with both MPH and KPH with European standards of accuracy which are (The displayed speed-Actual Speed) X 1% +4km. The needle will be a fiber optics needle that glows in the dark.
- The Hall Effect throttle is much improved with extra rugged thicker wires proving to be more reliable in all our testing.
- The Z-30 comes with the much awaited SmartSpark battery equalizer (made in the USA) for 60V with LED lights, which maintains the batteries precisely balanced both during charging and discharging thereby increasing significantly the batteries’ life. It is also able to perceive the individual condition of each battery and therefore can sense if any one battery is not functioning properly *
- The rest of the Z-30 will be much the same in appearance, though it now has more clearance under the frame and battery box of the motorcycle due to the new shocks. The Z-30 still has the 5 X 12V 35AH sealed lead acid battery pack as well as DOT lights throughout.
- We are equipping all our 2009 EVTAMERICA models with a much improved Soneil International Limited of Canada automatic 60V charger.
* Range will vary depending on the weight of the rider/s, terrain, wind resistance and road conditions. Example: a
run on a relatively flat road with few stops and a 180lb rider will get much better range than a hilly road with multiple stops, and a 280lb rider.
