With a domestic charging point offered for free, UK drivers have even more reasons to purchase the Renault ZOE when it arrives on their market in June.

As soon as customers place their order for the ZOE, Renault will contact British Gas, the company responsible for supplying and installing the charger in the customer's home. The installation of the 32-amp single-wall box will take place roughly one month before the vehicle is delivered, ensuring everything is up and running by the time the ZOE arrives at its new home. 
 

E. Leclerc, one of the biggest retailers in France, has accelerated the move towards a zero emission future by joining forces with Renault to form the Z.E. Club des 50.

The very first Renault ZOE has been delivered to its new keeper. And fittingly the keys have been handed over to Arnaud Montebourg, France’s Industry Minister, who placed his order at the Paris Motor Show in September.

Each year on the first Sunday of November, the road from London to Brighton on the England’s South Coast becomes a moving museum as it fills up with more than 500 pioneering veteran cars. The London to Brighton Veteran Car Run has taken place almost every year from 1927 and is the longest running motoring event in the world.

But it’s now been joined by a second event over the same weekend, this one looking to cars of the future rather than the past.

Join us on a whistlestop tour of the busy Renault and Nissan stands at Paris Motor Show. Discover why the Alliance is committed to increasing the number of electric vehicles on Europe’s roads and why Quick Charging is the key to future growth.

Meet ZOE, Renault’s latest EV and marvel at TeRRA from Nissan, an advanced 4X4 fuel cell electric vehicle concept.
Also at the show is Nissan Pivo 3, an ultra-compact electric city car of tomorrow.

The message from Paris? Zero Emission electric vehicles will help sustain personal mobility in the future, but they are here, now… and the Alliance is leading the EV charge.

With its modern looks, extended range and easy to drive attitude, the new Renault ZOE – launched at this week’s Paris Motor Show and in showrooms shortly – is going to make a significant contribution to the company’s EV sales.
 
Renault is on target to sell 20,000 electric vehicles across Europe in 2012, a figure that will rise considerably in 2013 as ZOE completes the company’s four strong EV range joining Kangoo Z.E., Fluence Z.E. and Twizy. Foucher has a soft spot for Twizy a car she says is ‘a real Renault.’ “It’s innovative, different and fun: there’s nothing else like it on the roads.”
 

Renault’s new ZOE electric city car is taking pride of place alongside the new Clio at the Paris Motor Show this week.

Revealed by Alliance boss Carlos Ghosn to a huge number of journalists from all over the world, ZOE not only wears Renault’s new ‘face’, it embodies the company’s progress in four areas: design, innovation, environment and quality.

Renault ZOE is undoubtedly one of the most significant cars at this year’s Geneva Motor Show. The reason? It brings electric vehicles closer to the mass market by being seriously affordable.

The compact hatchback, purpose designed from the ground up as an electric vehicle, is being shown at Geneva in its final production form prior to sales starting in the autumn. In France, prices will start at just €15,700.

As well as being truly innovative, it’s also one of the most usable EVs yet created, with a range of 210km (NEDC)… the first mass-market EV capable of such a distance between charges.
