2017 Renault Zoe - INTERIOR
Double the range for even longer journeys
As the pioneer of all-electric mobility and Europe's number one seller of electric vehicles, Renault has stepped up its innovation programme and the deployment of its Zero Emissions strategy.
Fitted with the new Z.E. 40 battery, the Renault ZOE now delivers a record NEDC driving range of 400km, which is twice the distance delivered by the model at the time of its original launch.
The new Z.E. 40 battery has a real-world range of 300 kilometres in urban or suburban areas, for example.
The range permitted today by the ZOE is the longest of any mainstream all-electric vehicle and motorists can take advantage of this step forward now.
The ZOE is the best-selling electric vehicle in Europe and provides a real alternative to internal combustion-engine cars, since average daily commuting distances are well within the ZOE's capabilities.
The new battery removes the final psychological barrier that stands in the way of buying an electric car since ZOE users can now travel further and enjoy a wider variety of driving situations without worry about charging. This makes weekend trips a real possibility.
An innovation that doubles battery capacity with no increase in size
The ZOE's new Z.E. 40 battery boasts 41kWh of useful energy, equivalent to almost double the storage capacity of the ZOE's standard battery (22kWh of useful energy).
Developed in close partnership with LG Chem, the battery uses high-energy density lithium-ion technology.
Renault and LG engineers have succeeded in increasing storage capacity without making the battery any bigger or a lot heavier. It was optimised by working on the chemistry of the cells in order to increase their energy density, rather than stacking additional battery modules, a commonly used technique.
This major new technology has been developed while ensuring the battery's reliability or safety.
The battery's large storage capacity ensures longer range for the ZOE thanks to the meticulous work that went into integrating the battery in the vehicle. The electronic management system of the battery optimises the ZOE's energy use on the move, while the new air circulation system maintains the temperature of the ZOE's battery at a constant level, making the car economical to run in very hot or very cold weather.
Z.E. Trip: using the R-LINK navigation system to locate all charging points
Z.E. Trip makes long-distance driving a breeze in the ZOE by allowing drivers to locate all public charging points in some of the main European countries. Z.E. Trip can be accessed directly via the Renault R-LINK navigation system using the steering wheel-mounted controls or via the internet to prepare trips in advance. The service indicates the real-time availability of each charging point, as well as its type and whether it is compatible with the car. The driver can select a charging point based on its charging capacity so the speeds suit their requirements
Equipment levels: more choice and features
The ZOE Edition One / Bose: a new version offering exclusive features Renault has launched a new version of the ZOE that targets customers seeking exclusive features.
It stands out notably through its premium leather upholstery, heated front seats and a BOSE® audio system. The new version has been released as the Edition One limited edition in France and a Bose equipment level in other European markets.
The ZOE Edition One / Bose is available with an exclusive Yttrium Grey finish.
New design features on other equipment levels
The ZOE is now available with two new body colours, Intense Red and Titanium Grey.
There are new interior appointments for the ZEN version to provide an even brighter abin: a chrome R-LINK console surround, a geometric pattern for the dashboard trim and a gloss metallic Fumé Grey finish for the gear lever trim, speaker surrounds, etc.
The INTENS version now comes with electrical folding door mirrors and new two-tone 16-inch aluminium wheels. There is added refinement inside the cabin, too, thanks notably a new black finish for the upholstery and different materials around the cabin. A new elegant and vibrant blue Interior Pack is also available for Intens versions.
