Video Summary
The updated Zoe features a bigger battery at 52 kilowatts. This provides a long-range of 245 miles. The car is more advanced with performance and technology. It is a good choice for city driving due to lower bills and how it drives. People who buy a Zoe often use it as their second car, and find it practical for day-to-day use. The Zoe is a thoroughly up-to-date small car and a perfect introduction to electric motoring.The seating position is more upright than normal, without seat-height adjustments. The new models offer connectivity, charge points, and electronic safety devices.
The latest Zoe has a "B mode" that provides brake regeneration. This recharges the battery during slowing, similar to downshifting with a conventional car.
A monthly lease could be affordable, particularly with a company salary sacrifice scheme. The price is a bit high for a small car: about £26,000. The 135 version has performance similar to a mid-sized petrol engine. A 110 variant is available. You'll need the top-line GT version and will need the rapid charge capability, an extra £750.
