Renault Zoe (2020-2024) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Long range for a small EV	Poor Euro NCAP safety rating
Good to drive	Not as desirable as some rivals
Practical cabin	Rapid charging ability costs extra

Quick Summary

The Renault Zoe (2020-2024) is a thoroughly revamped electric supermini that pioneered affordable EV motoring for mainstream buyers. This second-generation model features new styling, improved interior technology, an increased range, and enhanced performance with a more powerful 134bhp motor option. The cabin is airy and spacious with good visibility, whilst the 338-litre boot is practical for a supermini, though a large load lip and step in the load area when folding seats can be inconvenient. The Zoe offers fair-to-middling interior space, outperforming rivals like the MINI Electric and Honda E, though the VW ID.3 and Nissan Leaf provide more room.

The Zoe is exceptionally smooth and quiet to drive, zipping around town effortlessly with the higher-powered motor. Running costs are significantly lower than petrol or diesel equivalents, with home charging costing roughly half a tank of fuel. The model is exempt from Vehicle Excise Duty and London's Congestion Charge. However, the optional 50kW DC Rapid Charge upgrade is essential for faster public charging, taking just over an hour for an 80% charge. Replacement tyres are inexpensive, though insurance costs are higher than the petrol Clio. The Zoe remains competitive, but now faces impressive rivals including the Peugeot e-208, Vauxhall Corsa Electric, and the larger, cheaper MG4.

Best for: Budget-conscious EV buyers seeking a practical, long-range electric supermini with low running costs and smooth, quiet driving dynamics.

Not ideal for: Those prioritising top safety ratings, premium desirability, or who require rapid charging without additional cost, or buyers wanting maximum interior space.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Zoe if: You're a budget-conscious EV buyer seeking a practical, long-range electric supermini with low running costs and smooth, quiet driving dynamics.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise top safety ratings, premium desirability, require rapid charging without additional cost, or need maximum interior space.

Competitive Position: The Renault Zoe (2020-2024) remains a competitive and likeable electric supermini with proven reliability and a loyal following. Whilst it offers long range, practical cabin space, and excellent running costs, it now faces impressive rivals. The MG4 is larger and cheaper, the MINI Electric offers more desirability, and the Nissan Leaf provides more interior room. The Zoe's poor Euro NCAP safety rating is a concern, and rapid charging requires an optional upgrade. However, if you can find a great deal, the Zoe is still tempting for those prioritising practicality and affordability over premium appeal or maximum safety credentials.
