B-platform (Zoe)
Renault–Nissan B, adapted for the ZoeThe Zoe was Renault's electric volume car from the very start, built on the Clio's B platform and therefore on an adapted combustion floor, even though the Zoe itself never had a combustion engine. The battery is air-cooled: the Zoe charges well at a powerful AC charging point, but slowly at a rapid charger. Two checks for a used-car buyer: many Zoes were sold with a leased battery, and rapid charging via CCS was an option on the last generation — older Zoes cannot rapid-charge at all.
B-platform (Zoe) is the EV platform of Renault–Nissan, in production since 2013, with a 400V architecture. The B-platform (Zoe) platform carries 1 model from 1 brand. The WLTP range of the current variants on B-platform (Zoe) runs from 392 to 395 km.
Pick the car first, then the version — chemistry, battery and drive differ per version.
