29 fields on record

The 2026 Zero XE Guide is the larger, more capable half of Zero's return to the off-road market, pairing a 20 HP permanent-magnet motor with longer-travel adjustable suspension (210 mm front, 248 mm rear) for genuine enduro and trail use rather than just beginner dirt riding. Like its XB Guide sibling it uses a clutchless direct drive, but with a bigger 4.3 kWh battery for roughly 40 miles of range, plus ride modes, traction control, cruise control and reverse.

Best for
It is built for casual trail exploration, backyard and rec-area riding, and low-stakes off-road practice rather than serious enduro competition or highway use.
Built for
The riding character is quiet, torquey at low speed, and instantly responsive thanks to direct electric drive, giving a playful, low-drama feel over rough terrain.
Not ideal for
This is not the bike for highway commuting, long-distance touring, carrying a passenger, or riders wanting strong top-end speed and extended range.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.

Will it fit you?

Worked out in your browser - nothing is sent to us
At 900mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will not reach the ground comfortably on the 2026 Zero XE Guide, with a cramped knee angle of around 80 degrees and an upright riding position.

Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated. This is an approximation from category-typical geometry, not a measurement of this bike or of you - sit on one before you buy.
