This five-door, hatchback is roomy enough, about the same size as a Fiesta and in decent weather is capable of running for around 150 miles on a full charge. It’s good value too and costs less to buy than most rivals and is well supplied with standard equipment. Buyers also get a wall-mounted 7kW charger installed at their home for the lithium-ion battery pack. That’s a big plus. It’s designed primarily for the town and is fun and easy to drive.

How long does it take to charge an electric Renault Zoe?
The Renault Zoe is equipped with a 22 kWh lithium-ion battery pack that can be charged in a few different ways. The amount of time it takes to charge the battery will depend on the type of charger you are using and the state of the battery when you begin charging. Here are some estimates for the charging time of the Renault Zoe:
- Using a standard household outlet (2.3 kW): It will take about 12-13 hours to fully charge the battery from empty.
- Using a Level 2 charger (7.4 kW): It will take about 4-5 hours to fully charge the battery from empty.
- Using a DC fast charger (43 kW): It will take about 1 hour to charge the battery from empty to 80%. It will take a little longer to charge the battery from empty to 100%.
Keep in mind that these are just estimates, and the actual charging time may vary based on a number of factors
Can I charge my Renault Zoe in the rain?
It is generally not recommended to charge an electric vehicle (EV) in the rain. While modern EVs are designed to be weather-resistant, charging the battery while it is raining or when the car is wet could potentially create a hazard. Here are a few reasons why charging an EV in the rain is not a good idea:
- Water and electricity do not mix well. If water gets into the charging port or the charging cable, it could create a short circuit or cause an electrical malfunction.
- The charging port and cable are not designed to be submerged in water. If they get wet, it could cause damage and potentially create a safety hazard.
- If you are standing outside in the rain while charging your EV, you could get wet and uncomfortable.
It is best to wait for the rain to stop or find a covered area to charge your EV in order to avoid these potential issues.
