Renault ZOE (2013)

Introduction

2/13/2012



La Renault ZOE s'inscrit dans la stratégie de développement du véhicule électrique de Renault. La Renault Fluence ZE est déjà commercialisée, mais cette Renault ZOE est le premier véhicule électrique au monde, qui n'a pas été développé entièrement à partir d'une auto thermique. Cette Renault ZOE partage la plate-forme de la future Renault Clio 4, mais présente des éléments de design spécifiques, destinés à la rendre unique, désirable, et valorisante.

La Renault ZOE est la première vraie incarnation du nouveau design Renault, impulsé par Van Den Ackers avec le concept car Renault Dezir. On trouve ainsi cette nouvelle calandre Renault, valorisante.

Techniquement, cette Renault ZOE est entraînée par un moteur électrique de 88ch, et contient diverses améliorations et perfectionnement qui lui permettent d'afficher la plus grande autonomie d'un véhicule électrique de série (130 miles pour les cycle NEDC 2).

Economiquement, cette Renault ZOE sera peu chère à l'achat (15000€ environ), mais nécessitera de louer les batteries tous les mois, pour un prix mensuel de 70€ environ.

    PRESS RELEASE: RENAULT ZOE (2013)

    World debut of ZOE – final instalment of Renault's initial four-strong Z.E. range, priced from only £13,650 on-the-road (UK) (after Plug-in Car Grant deduction).
    ZOE features six world firsts and 60 patents

    Renault has chosen the 82nd International Geneva Motor Show for the first public appearance of ZOE, the first affordable car for everyday use, from just £13,650[1], to have been designed from the ground up as an electric vehicle. ZOE packs the industry's most advanced technology, including no fewer than six 'world premiere' features designed to deliver user-friendliness, range and connectivity.

    ZOE comes in the wake of the status-enhancing Fluence Z.E. saloon, Kangoo Van Z.E. (both launched in 2011) and the innovative urban runabout Twizy to make Zero Emission mobility a reality for ordinary motorists - one of the pledges of Renault's 'Drive the Change' signature.

    Through its 'Renault 2016 – Drive the Change' plan, and thanks to its growing range of electric vehicles, along with work on its internal combustion engines, Renault has made a commitment to reduce its global carbon footprint by 10 per cent by 2013, and by a further 10 per cent between 2013 and 2016. The fruit of this strategy can now be seen on the street.

    In terms of its internal combustion engines, Renault has chosen the Geneva Motor Show to reveal the latest phase of its powertrain strategy. Its Energy range sees the addition of two new internal combustion engines: the petrol Energy TCe 90 and the diesel Energy dCi 90. All the powerplants that feature in the Renault Energy range deliver a raft of innovations aimed at enhancing powertrain performance while at the same time returning low fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

    Meanwhile, the Mégane Collection 2012 line-up, which stands out as the flagship of Renault's quality drive, includes three new engines that all combine driving enjoyment, fuel efficiency and hallmark reliability for even greater appeal. The model embodies the Renault group's expertise in the realm of quality, which extends from the design to the sale of all the vehicles it markets. L

    ast but by no means least, after an initial series of four concept cars, Renault's new design strategy is now visible in its showrooms. Indeed, New Twingo and ZOE both feature the brand's new front-end styling signature, not to mention Twizy which creates a class of its own...

    "ZOE will be the spearhead of the Renault Z.E. range and the version on show at Geneva represents the model's final design. In addition to its compact size, attractive styling and affordable price tag, it showcases Renault's technological excellence when it comes to electric vehicles. ZOE also heralds the beginning of a new era of electric mobility for all and confirms our commitment to electric vehicles. It marks an important step for Renault which has a 110-year history of making major innovations a concrete reality for ordinary motorists. Our range of Energy engines is a further illustration of our 'innovation for all' drive. This range of eight engines – two of which are being unveiled today – benefits directly from our success in Formula 1 and combines performance, driving pleasure, and low fuel consumption and CO2 emissions." Carlos Ghosn, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Renault

  • INNOVATION FOR ALL: QUITE SIMPLY REVOLUTIONARY, WITH ZOE AT THE CUTTINGEDGE IN TERMS OF ELECTRIC POWER

    ZOE MARKS A NEW ERA OF ELECTRIC VEHICLES FOR ALL

    ZOE is Renault's solution to Zero Emission mobility for all. In addition to being a first class choice for everyday use and readily affordable (from just £13,650 in the UK after the deduction of the Plug-in Car Grant) ZOE is the first pure-electric car to be designed from the ground up as such. ZOE is packed with the latest technology and boasts no fewer than six world premieres geared to enhancing user-friendliness, range and connectivity.

    For the first time, the conditions necessary for the widespread roll-out of electric vehicles are well and truly in place.

    Unveiled at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, Renault ZOE will go on sale this autumn. Its launch marks the beginning of a new era: an era of electric vehicles for all.

    ZOE's world premiere features
  • The first mass-market electric vehicle with a price from just £13,650.
  • The first mass-market electric vehicle with a range of more than 130 miles (NEDC[2]).
  • The first vehicle to be equipped as standard with 'Range OptimiZEr, a system designed to improve real-world range under all driving conditions. For example, in suburban use the owner will achieve between 62 and 93 miles.
  • The first electric vehicle capable of being charged at any level of power – in between 30 minutes and nine hours – thanks to the Chameleon charger.
  • The first electric vehicle to enable the massive roll-out of fast-charging stations, which are easier and up to four times cheaper for local governments.
  • The first Renault vehicle to be presented with Renault R-Link, a multimedia system featuring a seven-inch touch screen tablet, navigation and connected services.




  • Style imbued with purity and emotion

    ZOE's final design is being world premiered at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. Designed as a pure-electric car from the ground up, ZOE is a sleek supermini with fluid lines. Its agile, dynamic looks express driving enjoyment, while its signature headlights feature LEDs that permanently light up recesses situated either side of the front air intake. Like Twingo and Twizy, ZOE features the Renault brand's new design identity.



    Exterior styling

    "We wanted ZOE's design to embody both a sense of breakthrough technology and core automotive styling cues. The car's eco-friendly dimension is expressed in its pure lines which appear to flow along the bodywork. Its contemporary proportions combined with sculpted volumes make ZOE a reassuring and captivating car." Agneta Dahlgren-Hermine (ZOE Design Project Manager)



    Interior design

    "ZOE's interior design reflects its modern, 'eco' character, with a bright colour scheme evocative of purity, plus the latest interactive technology in the form of the Renault R-Link tablet. The dashboard moulding has been designed to resemble the blade of a wind turbine." Dominique Marzolf (Interior Designer)



    Electric mobility for all, from just £13,650

    Today, for the first time, it is possible to buy an electric vehicle at a price comparable to that of a diesel-engined city car in markets where tax incentives are available. For example:

    In the UK (Government Plug-in Car Grant subsidy is available for up to 25% of the car's purchase price up to a maximum of £5,000), prices for ZOE after the grant deduction will start from just £13,650 In France, tax-paid prices start from €15,750 (with tax incentive of €5,000 deducted)

    Even in countries where tax incentives are not currently available, prices for ZOE are still particularly attractive. In Switzerland, for example, ZOE's catalogue price is CHF 22,800, which is equivalent to approximately £15,750 at current exchange rates.

    In the UK, monthly battery hire costs from £70 (9,000 miles/36 month contract), inclusive of comprehensive breakdown assistance (which covers flat batteries).

    As of today, customers can pre-order ZOE in 11 countries at www.Renault-ZE.com. Customers who reserve ZOE will be offered a test drive and will be contacted on a priority basis as soon as the car goes on sale later in 2012.



    ZOE, a raft of innovations for a new form of motoring

    More than 60 patents have been filed for ZOE's design. Range, interactivity and occupant wellbeing are at the core of its innovations.



    ZOE, the first mass-market electric vehicle to be homologated with an NEDC cycle range of 130 miles

    In terms of autonomy, Renault has developed the 'Range OptimiZEr', which combines three major innovations (new-generation regenerative braking, a heat pump and MICHELIN EnergyTM E-V tyres). Due to this, the range of ZOE is the highest of the electric vehicles in mass production. In the NEDC cycle, ZOE is homologated with a range of 130 miles. In real conditions, for example, in suburban use, the owner will generally achieve around 60 miles in cold weather and 90 miles in temperate conditions.

    New-generation regenerative braking recovers practically all of the energy otherwise wasted during braking, without any significant impact on ZOE's on-road dynamics. The car offers a smooth drive with no jarring electric motor braking. The system works in two ways:

    The kinetic energy produced under deceleration and braking is recovered by the motor so that it can be converted into electricity to charge the battery. This feature is also fitted to Fluence Z.E. and Kangoo Z.E. When the driver presses the brake pedal, the system intelligently distributes the braking effort between applying the brake pads and the electric motor brake with a view to maximising the use of the electric motor brake and charging of the battery.

    The heat pump provides excellent thermal comfort without detracting from the vehicle's range. This system, which operates in the same way as reverse-cycle air-conditioning, consumes very little electricity. It produces warm or cool air by simply reversing the cycle of operation. The heat pump generates approximately 2kW of cooling or 3kW of heat with just 1kW of electricity. The cabin temperature is also more constant since it is not affected by the heat given off by the motor.

    The MICHELIN EnergyTM E-V tyre is a Michelin innovation co-developed with Renault as a world premiere for ZOE. The tyre features enhanced energy efficiency to maximise vehicle range. Its rubber compound, tread design and sidewalls have been engineered to withstand ZOE's high torque and address the specific demands of electric vehicles, yet it still delivers the same safety and handling performance as all other Michelin tyres. Available in 15- and 16-inch versions, this tyre is fitted to all ZOE models as core equipment.



    The Chameleon charger revolutionises electric vehicle charging

    ZOE is the only electric vehicle to feature the Chameleon charger. Patented by Renault, this charger is compatible with all power levels up to 43kW. Charging batteries at a charging station can take between 30 minutes and nine hours. For example, ZOE can be charged in an hour at 22kW. This intermediate power level extends battery life and puts less pressure on the power grid than the fast-charging of batteries at 43kW.



    The Chameleon charger allows fast-charging at charging stations at quarter of the cost

    Fast-charging stations are currently equipped with high-power chargers. Now that the Chameleon charger is fitted to the vehicle, there is no longer any need for chargers at charging stations. New fast-charging stations will be opened which are easier and more cost-effective. They will cost less than £2,700, a quarter of the cost of existing fast-charging stations. Charging stations of this type are being previewed on the Renault stand at the Geneva Motor Show.



    Brand-new Renault R-Link multimedia system on ZOE

    ZOE is the first Renault vehicle to feature R-Link, Renault's brand-new integrated, connected multimedia system. To enable drivers to control its functions without taking their eyes off the road, R-Link features a large seven-inch display, steering wheel-mounted controls and voice recognition. It also delivers integrated connectivity with motoring services and applications available from the R-Link Store. When released, R-Link Store will offer more than 50 applications adapted for life on the move thanks to an active partnership with application developers. These apps will be downloadable directly inside the car or via owners' My Renault account.

    R-Link also includes a host of new functions dedicated to electric driving and range management: tracking of energy consumption, display of energy flows and pre-programming of battery charging. The navigation system offers bespoke services such as a display of the vehicle's operating radius based on the range remaining in the battery, suggestions for the most energy-efficient itineraries and the location of nearby battery charging stations (depending on country), as well as their real-time availability. R-Link also lets drivers view their eco-driving performance and improve their technique with 'eco-scoring' and tips (general and personalised).



    Connected services for remote communication and monitoring

    ZOE drivers will be able to use their mobile phone or computer to: access range-related information using the 'My Z.E. Connect' package, available on ZOE from the entry-level version. monitor their vehicle via the 'My Z.E. Interactive Connect' Pack which includes:
  • remote operation (on/off) of battery charging if the vehicle is connected to a charging station.
  • remote programming of charging (from a PC only) with the option of taking advantage of preferential rates from electricity suppliers.
  • immediate or delayed activation of the cabin pre-cooling/heating system.




  • Enjoyment, relaxation and wellbeing on board

    A relaxing, enjoyable drive

    Driving ZOE is a unique experience which gives new meaning to the term 'driving pleasure'. The synchronous electric motor with rotor coil has a power output of 65kW (equivalent to 89hp) and instantly delivers maximum torque of 220Nm. Acceleration and pull-away are responsive from low speeds. Driving is more relaxing thanks to the silent ride and smooth, gearshift-free acceleration.

    For stress-free driving in built-up areas, ZOE is fitted with 'Z.E. Voice', an alarm which warns pedestrians that the vehicle is approaching. 'Z.E. Voice' can be heard from 1 to 18 mph and was the subject of special design work to create a bespoke sound identity for ZOE. The driver can choose between three different sounds, while it is possible to turn off the warning system by simply pressing a button.



    The perfect temperature inside ZOE's cabin

    Programmable pre-conditioning heats or cools ZOE's cabin when the vehicle is charging. There are two benefits for the system. Firstly, when the driver gets into the car the cabin is just the right temperature and secondly, it removes the need to use up battery charge.



    The air breathed in by ZOE's occupants is purer

    An activated charcoal cabin air filter traps most bad smells and pollutants. It also filters substances just a few microns in size, such as pollen and soot.



    The 'Zen' version embodies the world of ZOE

    The choice of colours and materials for one of the ZOE versions - 'Zen' - recalls purity and wellbeing: white, blue and chrome, plus a soft-feel dashboard. ZOE Zen is fitted with 'Take Care by Renault' equipment as standard.

    Launched initially on Renault's executive saloon, Latitude, the 'Take Care' signature is a guarantee of premium features dedicated to occupant wellbeing and travelling comfort. In addition to the pre-conditioning function and active charcoal cabin filter, it includes:

    A relaxing or stimulating scent diffuser. The effectiveness of the scents has been proven by a study conducted by the German institute Psyrecon[3]. A dual-mode purifying and relaxing air ioniser: the purifying function eliminates the bacteria found in the cabin air. The relaxing function generates negative ions to produce a balance with the positive ions, which are present in high concentrations in a confined space such as a car's interior. A toxicity sensor: this system detects excessive pollution levels and automatically switches on the air recycling mode in the cabin. Teflon® upholstery protection, for easier cleaning: this invisible, odourless treatment is both waterproof and stain-proof.



    ZOE underpins Renault's environmental commitment

    Like all electric vehicles, ZOE emits no CO2, NOx, CO or fine particles. It also signals the loss of unpleasant smells and 'engine' noise during road use. Well-to-wheel CO2 emissions depend on the energy-generation mix of each country. Emissions total 62 g/km of CO2 in Europe, versus 89 g/km for the new Toyota Prius. They are even lower in France at just 12 g/km of CO2.

    From 2013, ZOE's local content rate will be 55 per cent following the introduction of the Renault electric motor which will be produced at the company's Cléon plant. This high rate helps to reduce the carbon footprint of logistics.



    ZOE complies with the very latest criteria required to qualify for the Renault eco² signature:
  • It is manufactured at Renault's ISO 14001-certified factory at Flins, France.
  • As required by Renault's eco-friendly hallmark, its CO2 emissions are less than 120g/km.
  • ZOE is 85 per cent recyclable, while nine per cent of the plastic it contains is sourced from recycling.




  • ZOE: 'Made in France' electric vehicle excellence

  • ZOE was designed at the Renault Technocentre, near Paris.
  • Lardy, a department devoted to electric motors and batteries.
  • ZOE is manufactured at Renault's Flins factory, where batteries will be made at a later date.
  • From 2013, the electric motor will be made at the Cléon factory, France.
