New Renault Zoe takes prize for best supermini

The New Renault ZOE has been awarded the Best Supermini Award by TopGear magazine in its latest dedicated Electric Awards issue. This most recent prize marks the eighth award win for the newest version of Renault’s all-electric model despite only being orderable since the beginning of the year and in Renault retailers since March.

 

It follows Renault’s win as Best Manufacturer and the New ZOE being crowned City Car of the Year in its annual TopGear.com awards, with the zero-emissions-in-use model praised for its range and refinement.

 

Jack Rix, deputy editor, Top Gear Magazine, said of the ZOE’s win: “This is a chilled sort of town car. The brakes are progressive and easy to manage. It’s upright and easy to pilot. The ride’s pliant. But, mostly, peace of mind heralds from a claim of 245 miles on a charge.”

 

The award also follows prestigious wins from WhatCar?, Driving Electric and the Great British Fleet Awards, recognising New ZOE’s all-round credentials. The multiple award-winning electric supermini’s ability to adapt to a range of driving situations courtesy of its ease of driving, high levels of technology and advanced battery pack means customers don’t need to compromise.
