Low energy tyres are a key to ZOE's optimised range

Low energy tyres are a key to ZOE's optimised range

ZOE, Renault’s latest pure electric vehicle, has an advanced drivetrain and a powerful battery pack. It has a highly efficient regenerative braking system and clever heat pump which minimises energy losses. All help to give ZOE an outstanding real world range of between 100-150kms and a homologated range of 210kms.

But one of the biggest reasons it can travel further on a full charge is down to its tyres. Tyres account for as much as 30 per cent of the energy consumed by an electric powertrain so the key is a tyre which reduces energy consumption.
