One or two sizes above the Twizy quirky place to sit is the Renault ZOE Preview. Along the lines of last year cut ZOE ZE, ZOE Preview is a more realistic look at the production version will be available in 2012 to wear the face of newer Renault. Not only that, but it can just be seen (ZING!) the next Clio.
Equivalent in size to the Clio, this small electric econobox gets some high-end technologies of comfort for passengers who may or may not appear in the production model (Renault claims 90% of what you see here is what you get ). For residents to feel comfortable that Zoe has an air conditioner to control humidity with a toxicity sensor and integrated air freshener.
Oh, there's more, do not worry. It also provides "light therapy" that is developed in collaboration with Philips (apparently a "recognized expert in the world of light therapy").
The concept shown here is 4.1 meters long and mounted 19-inch wheels. For production, the dimensions will be similar, but these wheels? Probably will not happen. Power comes from a power of 80/60 kW electric motor that is 222 Nm / 164 lb-ft of torque.
Charging takes 6-8 hours and can be done (mostly) in two different ways: either a junction box that connects to an electrical outlet at home, or as an accessory EVSE (electric vehicle supply equipment). Renault should go to a junction box for convenience. Also possible, infrastructure should be reflected in a time soon, is what the company calls "quick charge" This gives the car to 37 kilometers of the race in case of emergency only ten minutes of charging.
Israelis and Danes can also have the option of Quick Drop batteries, which means that there will be stations that will change your backup battery used in a few minutes.
