PETALING JAYA: TC Euro Cars (TCEC), the sole franchise holder for Renault cars in Malaysia, announced the availability of the Renault ZOE full-electric vehicle, in limited units.

Designed from the ground up as a pure-electric vehicle, ZOE is Renault’s solution to Zero Emission mobility.

Like all electric vehicles, ZOE emits no CO2, NOx, CO or fine particles. It also signals the disappearance of unpleasant smells and ‘engine’ noise during road use.

“ZOE is the core of the Renault Zero Emissions range. In addition to its compact size and attractive styling, it showcases Renault’s technological excellence when it comes to electric vehicles. ZOE also heralds the beginning of a new era of electric mobility for all and confirms Renault’s commitment to electric vehicles,” said TC Euro Cars Sdn Bhd chief executive officer, Kuan Kim Luen.

Its synchronous electric motor with rotor coil delivers maximum power of 88PS from 3,000 to 11,300rpm and peak torque of 220Nm from as low as 250rpm.

Fitted with an automatic gearbox and powered by a 22kWh lithium-ion battery, full charging times for the ZOE ranges from four hours on a 7kW fast charger to nine hours on a regular 3.6kW charger.



At full charge, the Renault ZOE has a driving range of 210km (based on the NEDC cycle). In fact, at its global debut in 2012, ZOE was the first mass-market electric vehicle in the world to achieve this homologation.

Additionally, a 3.6 kWh Delta wall-mounted charger is included with the purchase of the Renault ZOE.

The Renault ZOE also comes standard with a seven-inch Renault R-Link touchscreen display with USB connectivity and hands-free Bluetooth kit with music playback, an audio keyless entry system with walkaway lock, and a 12V power socket.

It also offers cruise control and speed limiter, automatic climate control with temperature and humidity sensors, automatic wipers and headlights as well as daytime running lights.

Ample storage space is available with 338 litres of boot space which expands to 1,225 litres with the rear seat folded.

Standard safety features include four airbags – dual front airbags as well as head-and-chest side airbags for driver and passenger, ABS with EBD, ESC and ASR, height adjustable 3-point front seatbelts with pretensioners, ISOFIX child seat anchors on the outer rear seats and front passenger seat.

The ZOE is available at RM145,888, on-the-road inclusive of GST without insurance for private individual registration in Peninsular Malaysia in Glacier White colour.

Like all Renault passenger cars in Malaysia, service intervals for the Renault ZOE are 10,000km or six months, whichever comes first. It also comes with a three-year or 100,000km mileage manufacturer’s warranty, five-year electrical powertrain warranty or 100,000km (whichever comes first) and a five-year traction battery warranty or 100,000km (whichever comes first).
