Renault ZOE: cold weather tests

Renault ZOE: cold weather tests
Vehicle powertrains and mechanical components are subjected to tough conditions in winter. So we have to make sure that the cars we put on the road can resist extreme temperatures. Other components apart from the engine are closely monitored. The gearbox, for example, must not be restricted or slowed down by extreme cold.

Arras has been pursuing a policy of sustainable development since 2008, and began replacing its combustion engine vehicles with EVs three years ago, when it acquired nine Renault Kangoos for its maintenance department. By 2014, another 15 EVs are scheduled to integrate the city's 60-strong fleet.

Renault ZOE electrifies the Flins production plant

Renault ZOE electrifies the Flins production plant

Production of ZOE, the flagship of Renault’s electric vehicle range, started at the end of 2012 on the same production lines as New Clio and Clio Collection. The industrial development of ZOE was a tough challenge for Flins, but the plant succeeded in launching the series production of two very different and strategically important vehicles for the company, ZOE and New Clio, at the same site and in the same year. The people at Renault showed outstanding ingenuity to minimize changes to production resources and cope with the specific demands of electric ZOE in the manufacturing process in a totally fluid manner. The production processes of the ZOE and New Clio body shells are so similar that it takes a carefully trained eye to spot the differences between the two.
