Why did you choose this car?
I’ve got the vehicle on short-term rental from Onto. Originally ordered a Citroen E-C4 but they upgraded to the Peugeot. I installed EV charge points so thought I’d give the EV world a try.

 

Positives – List 3 or more reasons why you love this car.

  • The look of the car

  • small onboard charger.

 

Have you experienced any faults with the car? If so, what have they been?
The blind spot indicators are a bit hit and miss.

 

What are the standout tech features of the car?
The remote facilities through the app are good, warm up is really handy although slaughters the range. Sound system is pretty good and DAB works well.

 

Surprise us! Tell us something people wouldn’t readily know about this car.
It’s an EV, it looks just like a normal car, they haven’t tried to make it look all futuristic.

Renault Zoe due to faster charging and hopefully range.
