Loved it! Great review video 😍😍
Thank you Sharad, glad you liked it!
Update, still driving the same Zoe now after well over eight years now and still enjoying it.
Did you get the battery owned one or a battery lease one? Thanks
Hello. Excellent review of the car, thank you. I am considering buying a 2014 Zoe Q210 (22 Kwh) at around 20,000 miles (32,000 kilometers) for my daily commute which is around 7.5 miles (12 km). Do you think it is worth getting an 8-year-old EV without a guarantee? And the car has only been driven 20K miles in nearly ten years so it just sat idle for most of the time. I am worried that it has degraded the battery even further.
A great review of the original Zoe which I myself own, I have the basic model Expression as at the time it was the only one I could afford on my budget at the time. Having said that I find it a great car to drive and get along well without the reversing camera, keyless entry and manual rear windows. It is as you say a great little car and has saved me a fortune over the years during my almost six years ownership.
Thanks for sharing your experience Julian. Absolutely incredible to hear you are still enjoying it after 6 years, they really are fantastic little cars 🙂
I know I'm kinda randomly asking but does anybody know of a good website to stream new tv shows online?
@Dorian Idris Flixportal :)
@Axel Amir thanks, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) Appreciate it !
@Dorian Idris Happy to help :)
We got the Zoe 52kwh and we are not entirely sure how we feel about it. It got long range but the 22kw type 2 charging feels dated. After the fact it would've been better with a 40-45kwh battery with DC fast charging like in the MG zs or Nissan leaf.
nice review
It has some stupid flaws that any potential buyer should know about. And the biggest stupidity is that it could be fixed with firmware, but Renault just does not care.
If you live in a warm climate (never below 7 degrees C) these complaints/issues do not apply to you.
When it is cold, you can not control the traction battery heating. So if being on a journey when it is below -5C your maximum charging speed is 7kW even at 20% SoC. To get full charging speed the traction battery needs to be above +7C.
The heating of the cabin can not be controlled during charging. A workaround exists, heating can be turned on thru the app. But the temperature will still be drop to about 10C if it is below -10C outside.
The heating/cooling thru the app is limited to 10min, no matter what, but it can be repeated every 10min manually...
So it is not sufficient in low temperatures as it will not heat up the cabin or the traction battery enough when it is below +5C in 10min.
The supplied single-phase 230V cable is strict 10A only and has no adjustments neither in the charging cable nor in the car settings, it is always maximum charge speed and always to 100% SoC.
Mini Cooper=YES, Kia Soul=YES , BMW I3=YES, VW ID3=YES , Zoe=NO!! ==> 0 point in CRASH-TEST Euro NCAP!! And boring design!
Not the ZE40!
