The Renault Zoe is a gateway drug to electric vehicles Paul tells me they visited the Renault dealership to check out available cars. The salesman showed them the Renault Zoe electric vehicle and after a short test drive, Paul and his girlfriend were hooked. Living in Switzerland means it’s necessary to drive up hills and Paul was amazed that the little Zoe exhibited good acceleration in these situations. It wasn’t[...]

Introductions I am a newbie to driving an EV. Still waiting for the delivery of my Nissan Leaf 2018 at the time of writing. Mind you I’ve always had a deep interest in renewables and used an electric bicycle for the last three or four years.
