‘Great small EV’ drives a Renault Zoe 50kWh 2022.
This is Great small EV’s first electric car, they’ve owned the Renault Zoe from new and drive 5,000-10,000 miles annually. The current mileage of the car is between 5,000-10,000 miles and they achieve 240 miles from a full charge.
Why did you choose the Renault Zoe?
Of all the smaller cars this has by some distance the best range. It is European not Chinese. It has lots of room in the front and a good capacity boot for a small car. It looks like it’s expensive but we got an excellent deal from the Renault dealer Smiths in Peterborough which no one else could get close to.

None, the depreciation kills any savings stone dead but the day-to-day running costs are cheaper.
