Renault Zoe ZE50 R135

9.5 s to 100 km/h and 310 km of real range — the stronger Zoe R135 has a clearer character, but charging is still slow.

Buying decision

EvCompass verdict

The main arguments drawn from approved data and the EvCompass editorial summary.

A 52 kWh battery, 168 Wh/km and 245 Nm add up to 310 km of real range and 9.5 s from 0 to 100 km/h. Range is higher than the 257.5 km median, but 168 Wh/km is above the 161 Wh/km median.

DC has only 46 kW and 10 to 80% takes 56 min. The 338 l boot supplies a practical counterpoint to the performance.

Best suited to

It makes sense when 9.5 s to 100 km/h is worth a 56 min charging stop.

Strong points

  • Real range of 310 km is higher than the 257.5 km median among B-segment hatchbacks.

What to consider

  • Consumption of 168 Wh/km is higher than the 161 Wh/km median in this group.
  • The 46 kW DC charging peak is lower than the 85 kW median.

Home charging

Chargers matched to this car

Live home AC products ranked by how closely their power matches the car's onboard charger.

The car accepts up to 22 kW AC — a higher-power station will not charge it beyond that limit.

Ownership costs

What it costs to use this car

Energy, scheduled servicing and seasonal tyres, priced from one transparent set of assumptions.

Calculation assumptions and sources

Applied settings

Real-world consumption

Mild weather: 146 Wh/km

Cold weather: 200 Wh/km

Cold-weather share: 44.2% from the 1991–2020 climate normals, source read on September 13, 2026. IMGW-PIB source

The source does not state whether these figures include charging losses; no additional loss factor is applied.

Tyre ageing without mileage is excluded; seasonal changeovers are counted twice per year.

Home tariff

G11 — flat rate: PLN 1.10/kWh · source read on September 13, 2026 · Poradnia OZE; assembled from URE-approved PGE 2026 tariffs

Indicative reconstruction: PGE Obrót energy, PGE Dystrybucja variable distribution and variable statutory charges from the 2026 tariffs were summed net and increased by 23% VAT. Fixed monthly fees are excluded. The result is below the shared G11 range of PLN 1.18–1.32/kWh because it includes variable items only; published comparisons may include other charges or assume a different billing profile.

Method: we convert the car's baseline consumption and real-world range through fixed profile factors, adjusted for body style, weight, AWD and heat pump when those fields are available. Bands show simulation uncertainty, not a guaranteed result.
