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. The latest generation features new styling, improved interior technology, increased range, and enhanced performance. With a 134bhp motor option, the Zoe feels brisk in town and exceptionally smooth thanks to its electric drivetrain. The cabin is airy and spacious with good visibility, whilst the 338-litre boot is practical for a supermini, though rivals like the VW ID.3 and Nissan Leaf offer more interior space.
Running costs are exceptionally affordable compared to petrol or diesel cars, with home charging costing roughly half the price of a full tank of fuel. The Zoe is exempt from Vehicle Excise Duty and London's Congestion Charge. Optional 50kW DC Rapid Charging enables 0-80% battery replenishment in just over an hour at public stations. However, the Zoe's EuroNCAP safety score is a concern, and it now faces stiff competition from impressive rivals including the Peugeot e-208, Vauxhall Corsa Electric, and the larger but cheaper MG4.
Best for: Budget-conscious buyers seeking an affordable electric car with good range, practical interior space, and low running costs, plus those wanting to transition into EV motoring.
Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising top safety ratings, those seeking premium badge appeal, or those unwilling to pay extra for rapid charging capability.
Comparison vs Key Rivals
| Vehicle | CarGurus Expert Rating | CarGurus User Rating | Good/Great deals % | Overall CarGurus Rating |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Renault Zoe | 3/5 | 4.7/5 | 33.5% | 4.1/5 |
| MG4 | 4/5 | 4.5/5 | 33.3% | 4.3/5 |
| Nissan Leaf | 3/5 | 3.8/5 | 31.2% | 4.1/5 |
| MINI Electric | 4/5 | 4.6/5 | 33.5% | 4.4/5 |
The Verdict
You should buy the Zoe if: You're seeking an affordable electric car with good range, practical interior space, and exceptionally low running costs, or looking to transition into EV motoring on a budget.
Consider alternatives if: You prioritise top safety ratings, premium badge appeal, or wish to avoid paying extra for rapid charging capability.
Competitive Position: The Renault Zoe (2020-2024) remains a competitive and likeable electric supermini with impressive range and practicality. However, it now faces formidable competition from the MG4, which offers more space at a lower price, and the MINI Electric, which boasts superior safety ratings and desirability. Whilst the Zoe's EuroNCAP score is a concern, its affordability, low running costs, and proven reliability make it an attractive option for budget-conscious buyers. If you can find a great deal, the Zoe is still tempting, though it's no longer the default electric supermini choice.

4.7 Overall rating
(3 reviews)We were looking for a small car with good range without it costing the earth. Looking at prices we targeted a Renault Zoe, R135 GT Line with Rapid/ CCS charging. Neither my wife or myself had ever driven an automatic or EV. We were amazed at the vehicle, nice drive and handling, very brisk and the level of tech with newer/ EVs is impressive. In fact there is so much tech on board I dont know if we will ever find everything but if you are looking for a second user EV, with great spec, great range a used Renault Zoe is a great starting point. Checking prices on CarGurus helped to give us an idea of what sort of prices these vehicles were going for....seems second user vehicles are now affordable for many, thanks.
Fantastic first car for my daughter to learn to drive in. Locally. All electric features Only issue is fully charged battery 8 years old only provides around 80 miles of driving.
Brilliant car to drive and looks very nice. Steering feels smooth.
