The much awaited new Renault Zoe Z.E.50 UK specs and options are now out! The Zoe ZE50 is the new face lifted Zoe with a larger 52kwh battery pack. It brings the much requested option of CCS DC fast charging. The GT Line also brings with it a new motor the R135 with 135 bhp. This Renault made motor will be optional on the Iconic which can be purchased in either an R110 or R135 option.

Will Adams at DSG will be a very busy man over the next fews years I imagine. Not that he’s not busy already.

A pity CCS isn't a retro fit for the ZE40. Having said that I charge away from home so rarely that the 22 kw charge rate has been totally fine other than the day when I did 370 miles. Peugeot are going for 100 kw CCS and I think that's way more worth having than 50 kw that Renault have gone for. The range of the Zoe is very good though.

[philatkinson]

Another excellent vlog buddy. CCS for sure!

[simonreeves]

By the time you add the options you need, you might as well get a BMW i3. Awesome car, premium brand, and will hold it's value much better when you come to change.

Nice to know the difference between the models Nick. "Over speed protection" All new cars sold in Europe by 2021 will have to have the "intelligent speed assistant" fitted (mandatory) coupled "traffic sign recognition software" Speeding may become a thing of the past!!!

[SimonHollandfilms]

our dealer did not offer CCS on the iconic...only the GT. .... plus they quoted €400 to add a camera to an iconic....although the city park package includes front sensors, auto park and a camera...for €500...it's complicated, watch Nick's good youtube channel and do your homework before buying a new zoe.

Quick one! Are the Zoe 40's going to get the updated screen and electronics??..when the 50's release!

[MarkGaudie]

I agree with you completely Nick when I comes to choosing a spec on the ZOE. Do not spec the base model without CCS. Major mistake if you do. It will suit some people’s needs but as you say residuals will be effected and saleability.

[matteo]

Nice video! Still unsure about one thing though, should I get the CCS option?

[plaw]

Bait and switch, entry level just to make the mid spec appear more desirable. Standard practice.

[garrylawless]

Great review, I agree Renault needs to rethink the range/options for the British market. I'm interested in swapping my Hybrid now! I like how, being in the car business, you look out for us the Consumers.

[ianrobins]

thanks Nick for the informative video. i bet there will be no tow bar option

[pinktroll]

Hiya Nick! Great video and super helpful! I’m looking to purchase a used ZE50. How can I tell, from looking online, that it comes with CCS? Or will I just need to enquire with the dealer? Thanks!

[wozza]

Will the new Zoe still have the AC 22kw on board charger, and if so would that still be included should you choose the CCS option?

[hamfish]

I wonder if renault will change their mind on letting people add ccs to the play model. I'd get that one otherwise.

[MarkGaudie]

Wonder if the play model is aimed at ride sharing in cities mainly. Where they will be left plugged in for longer periods of down time.

[iansimons]

Hi just out of curiosity how much is the Zoe behind you. Or is there a reason you’re not displaying the price. It’s just so much in the shot. Human curiosity I suppose. CCS not standard that’s poor. Maybe a fantastic deal on the outgoing 40 is the way to go. 🤓

[marcusmascord]

The new Zoe is beautiful, interior and exterior are amazing. However by the time you have specced it up with CCS etc it will be expensive. Nearly the same price as the new Volkswagen ID.3, so it is a no brainer to go for the ID.3.

[gordonfraser]

Any thoughts on which colours will be best\worst at resale?

[TheBeggFamily]

The play is the only one I can afford. They do a £60pm payment plan, perfect for pensioners. £280pm is unaffordable. I am adding SatNav, front/rear sensors and CCS connector before I take delivery. CCS connector is £750.
