Just reporting in.
I’ve had my Renault Zoe ZE50 R135 for 15 months. Couple of mildly interesting stats;

  • No mechanical issues at all.

  • Only driven around 2,500 miles (pandemic plus working from home = hardly driven it at all)

  • Used approximately 625kWh of electricity

  • Total ‘Fuel’ cost approximately £40 (charged at home roughly once a month on Octopus Go tariff for 5p per kWh).

  • Average of 4 miles per kWh overall (as low as 2 mpkWh in the winter, versus as high as 8 in the summer):

  • Average round trip distance: 15.5 miles

  • Average of 200 miles per 100% battery charge:

  • Fairly wide range of estimates for mileage remaining (as low as 150 miles from a full charge in the winter versus 245 miles in the summer).

Overall really satisfied with the car. Looking forward to doing some road trips and getting more use out of it once the restrictions start easing up even further.

Already looking ahead to what my next car might be in 3 years. Current contenders include;

There will no doubt be plenty more to chose from by then, so who knows.

Any questions, hit me up.
