Charge time

On a powerful fast charger the Renault Zoe charges from 10 to 80 percent in about 59 minutes, adding roughly 221 km. The last 20 percent charges deliberately slowly, so on a trip it pays to stop at 80.

Range

With a usable battery of 52 kWh and motorway-ish consumption around 165 Wh/km, the Renault Zoe realistically covers about 315 km on a charge. At 130 km/h, in the cold or with a roof box the figure drops, so plan for about 80 percent of it on the motorway.

Plugs and charging

The Renault Zoe uses CCS (Combo 2) for fast charging and Type 2 for ordinary AC, like virtually every new EV in Europe. So it fits the vast majority of public chargers without adapters.
