    Our test car is a top-of-the-line Rivièra spec, with a lot of tech and luxury on board. I liked the ZOE since it was launched in 2015, too bad this new version got ZERO stars on the Euro Ncap test.
    Why did it get this score? Mainly because with the facelift, they sacrificed on passenger safety. It surely doesn't feel like a small or unsafe car when you drive it... Hope they will make an effort to make this little EV top of class again!

    I bought a Zoe in November 2020, ( just before the EuroNCap report came out). It is used as a second car so mostly around town/suburban driving. My model is a R135 GT line, it is my first fully electric car, I also have a PHEV and I have owned a number of hybrids. Overall I am very impressed, because of the computer chip shortage I went for a car which was available relatively quickly otherwise I would have specified electrically heated seats, my car does have AEB. The key decision point for me was range, it had to be able to travel from where I live to central London without recharging on the way, including with the heating/aircon on, at night, with luggage plus another passenger, the route is dual carriageway plus motorway, so has to travel at the speed limit.Distance is 115 miles, so with those conditions unlikely the other small cars eg Mini electric would make it on one charge.

    We are on our 2nd Zoe and our 5th BEV, really lovely car, most underrated with more room than a Kona. Our Zoe matches our VW ID. 3+ for range.

    It's too bad these are not available in the US. I have a 2016 Kia Soul EV+ with a similar 0 to 60 time and you're right: Although it's not necessarily that fast, it FEELS much quicker than it is because the response is instantaneous. It has gotten me out of near misses several times. Driving in traffic is a real pleasure, no doubt.

      @@JustWasted3HoursHere hahaha, no, not at all 😂. It got the stars because the facelift of the car got worse airbag safety than the original one. And that’s just not done according to Euro NCAP, there should always be improvements with new versions. The original ZOE actually got a very good NCAP score.

      I had never driven a battery electric car before until I took a test drive in a Fiat 500e last month and I liked it so much I immediately placed an order. The combination of instant torque and one-pedal driving makes it very relaxing.

    Zoe is old-school ev but the price would help BUT e.g. in Czechia the Zoe costs the same like Citroen C4-e 50kwh or Kona 40kwh which is ridiculous :-)

    Belle voiture, mais cette version coûte environ 40.000 € , est il nécessaire d'avoir le volant chauffant, les sièges chauffant, tout ce qui est énergivore en électricité 🤔, la finition Intens déjà bien équipée est beaucoup plus approprié pour cette voiture .

    • @johnnypovdrives
      @johnnypovdrives  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Non, bien sûr, ces options ne sont pas nécessaires, je pense que la Riviera est un modèle de niche pour les personnes qui font peu de kilomètres mais qui veulent autant de luxe que possible d'un VE compact.

    The Fiat 500e is way better, despite being a rival of this Renault Zoe. It’s more comfortable to drive and it’s a lot safer (earning 4 stars) than this hunk of junk.

    Front wheel drive does not mean wheel spin in wet , poor driver , rear wheel spin for this poor driver would be much more likely and dangerous. May be reading the manual and not looking for buttons on the move would help.
