The Renault Zoe was purchased for economic and environmental commuting. The car is reliable and gets to work and back easily without worrying about the cost of fuel. The 30-mile round trip commute is well within the range of the 40-kilowatt battery. The range is generally between 120 and 180 miles depending on temperature and speed. There can be range anxiety when owning an electric car, but it is lessened with familiar routes. Range is definitely lower in extremely cold temperatures. Driving carefully by reducing speed helps to increase range. Living in a rented accommodation without a home charging point can be difficult. Manchester has a great EV network, and nearby tram stations have charging bays. They are 20 pounds per year, and currently, electricity is free. The Renault Zoe is fun to own, reliable, a bit different, and inexpensive. It has instant torque and regenerative braking. The reviewer recommends giving electric motoring a try.
