La Zoe blew out her first candle at the start of the year. Renault's electric city car was gradually launched on the market in January 2013 and today the first young opportunities are appearing on the market at very attractive conditions.

The Renault Zoé is a small city car with a modern look. The design is very worked, the fleeting lines make it a pleasant car to look at and even give it an almost aggressive face. It is versatile, comfortable, road-hugging, has a good-volume trunk and uses electrical power. This small ecological city car was built on the basis of the Clio with enlarged voices and a lowered center of gravity. The main problem with an electric car is its range. That of the Renault Zoé is interesting: about 200 kilometers in a standardized cycle and between 100 and 150 kilometers in normal use with air conditioning and radio. A very positive point for this electric. Unfortunately, recharging remains the weak point of all manufacturers in this market. But for Zoe, it is possible to have a “wallbox” terminal installed at his home. There, to restore the energy level as much as possible, it will take 3 hours. On a public terminal, at the manufacturer's or a mobile terminal (380V), only one hour is enough. Inside The Renault Zoe is a modern car, the R-Link provides access to a host of features thanks to the touch screen placed in the middle of the dashboard, but also to voice control so you never take your eyes off the road. Note that on an electric, the engine does not hum when ignition, instead the word "Ready" appears on the dashboard. On the screen is the consumption histogram displayed in real time, as well as the energy flow between the battery and the vehicle's energy-consuming functions. At the end of the route, it is also possible to consult its Eco-driving performance with an assessment of the driving mode and personalized advice for driving more economically. Driving the Zoe is comfortable. One of the very positive points, the design and the harmony of the colors. On the instrument side, Renault has chosen minimalism. The trunk offers a generous volume of 338 liters, 38 more than the Clio while the wheelbase is the same. On the road Under the hood is a wound rotor synchronous electric motor that delivers 65 kW (88 hp) with a torque of 220 Nm. Behind it is a single gearbox, so the car has only one gear. The Zoe is comfortable and can be driven. With good handling, it doesn't have to be ashamed of cars running on fuel. In town, the torque available immediately makes it easy to get out of the traffic. But it is also possible to favor autonomy. To do this, simply press the "eco" button on the center console which reduces air conditioning performance, engine power and programmable cabin preconditioning.
