How to find these values on your Renault

Wh/mi or Wh/km

On the OpenR Link or Easy Link display, navigate to "Driving" → "Energy" or "Trip Computer". Average consumption in Wh/km or Wh/mi is displayed in the trip data. On Mégane E-Tech, swipe to the energy history card.

Estimated Range

Estimated range is shown on the instrument cluster behind the steering wheel and in the Energy section of the central display.

Battery Percentage

Battery percentage is displayed on the instrument cluster next to the battery gauge and on the home screen of the central display.

About the Renault Zoe

The Renault Zoe was a pioneer of affordable electric motoring in Europe, launching in 2013 and becoming one of the continent's best-selling EVs over its long production run. It went through several significant updates, with the final ZE50 version offering a 52 kWh battery good for up to 239 miles WLTP range, a substantial improvement over the original 22 kWh pack.

The Zoe's strength always lay in its accessibility. It was affordable to buy, cheap to run, and small enough to be genuinely practical in urban environments. The 22 kW AC charging capability was a standout feature, allowing fast charging on public AC stations that many rivals could not match. DC charging, however, was limited to 50 kW and was not available on all variants, which held the car back for longer journeys.

The interior was cheerful and functional rather than premium, with a large central screen and straightforward controls. A notable controversy was the Euro NCAP crash test in 2021, where the updated model scored zero stars, though this was partly due to the absence of certain active safety systems rather than structural weakness alone. Production ended in 2024, closing the chapter on one of Europe's most important early EVs. Used examples are plentiful and affordable, making the Zoe an accessible entry point into EV ownership.

What the press thinks

An affordable and likeable city EV that played a pivotal role in European EV adoption. Reviewers praised its value, range improvement over the years, and nippy urban driving, while flagging the zero-star NCAP result and limited DC charging as weaknesses.
