Following a sparkling victory last year, Renault ZOE has put in yet another remarkable performance at the 2015 ZENN Monte-Carlo Rally with four ZOE models taking the top four spots.  

 

In its second appearance in the prestigious international competition, Renault ZOE outdid the field in the following categories:

• 1st in the overall standings of the ZENN Rally 

• And 4 ZOE in the top 4 places in the overall standings

• 1st in the consumption standings

• And 5 ZOE in the top 5 places in the consumption standings  

• 1st in the regularity standings 

• And 4 ZOE in the top 4 places in the regularity standings 

 

With eight racing zones punctuated with five regularity tests in this year’s ZENN Monte-Carlo Rally (ZENN standing for “zero emissions, zero noise”), the competitors drove a total of 210 km over seven and a half hours. 

Renault entered four teams, including a press car and a blogger car. A team of individuals took part in the rally on an individual initiative alongside the competing brands.

 

At the conclusion of the two-day race, these five ZOE finished in first, second, third, fourth and seventh place. The “individual” team finished fourth. Renault would like to applaud this non-professional team and is delighted to see that the electric hatchback brought it every chance of competing strongly in an event as demanding as the ZENN Rally.

 

Congratulations are also in order for our teams of professional drivers, who notched up a one-two finish and won all the race events (consumption, regularity and combined). Renault would like to present its special congratulations to our blogger teams and journalist, who finished in third and seventh place respectively in their debut ZENN Rally.
