The domestic price of Kawasaki ZH2, the first supercharged street car, has been announced. The price of 23.9w is similar to previous expectations. Compared with the other three large imitation racing brothers (NINJA H2/H2 ?R/H2?SX) is much cheaper. The new car only offers one color option of "Metallic Demon Black". In addition to the supercharger technology, the main selling point of the new car is the "sad" design appearance of SUGOMI and the rich electronic control assistance.
As a new member of the Z series street car, the bionic snake head and Z-shaped taillights have obvious family DNA, and the body's muscularity and power are also the strongest among the same series of models. The ZH2, which is derived from the NINJA H2 SX, exposes more of the frame and engine, and its mechanical beauty is better than that of the large-enclosure imitating racing model. Although the NK street car is the most basic model, it has the widest range of applications and the lowest price, which also gives it a larger market. For car enthusiasts who are not too fond of the three previously launched NINJA models and want to experience supercharger technology, perhaps Z?H2 is the right way to open it.
Kawasaki’s power has always been of great concern to domestic riders. The book data of this inline four-cylinder engine with a displacement of 998cc are consistent with the overseas version. The maximum power is 147kw and about 200 horsepower. Although " The title of "the most powerful street car on earth" did not last long, and was surpassed by the 208 horsepower of the Ducati V4 Street Fighter. However, the Z?H2 is still able to stand out from its peers with its supercharger technology. It has no rivals in China, such as BMW. The maximum horsepower of the S1000R is 165 horses.
Powerful power naturally needs to be matched with corresponding configurations, which is also what you need to pay attention to after choosing an advanced model. ZH2 will naturally not disappoint riders. It has three riding modes, three adjustable power modes, three-stage adjustable, traction control that can be turned off, cornering ABS, wheel control, slipping clutch, electronic cruise and other advanced electronics. Control assistance helps the rider control this "beast" more smoothly and safely.
Finally, I would like to lament that Kawasaki’s four super motorcycles with supercharged technology have gathered in China. Why do Honda, Suzuki and Yamaha not introduce more and richer models to compete. Should we just sit back and let the Kawasaki family dominate? Kawasaki has laid a solid foundation in the domestic market with its Z series street cars and Ninja series imitation racing cars, and new cars will arrive faster in the future. Riders, what do you hope Kawasaki’s next model will be?
