has confirmed it will cease production of the Zoe, in favour of the Clio and Captur amid a loss of interest in the electric vehicle market.Fabrice Cambolive spoke about ending the much-loved Zoe model, which was deemed best selling EV for two years in Europe.: “It depends on the market. If a market is fully electric, okay, but most markets will have pure electric for the compact segment, and until 2035, if needed, we will have Clio and Captur too.
The car expert confessed he feels four EVs and four hybrids from Renault offer the perfect amount of choice in an European market. "We will have the Mégane shortly and the Scenic after that. And after that, we will come on to the compact segment.”The company had been aiming to produce the latest Clio as a hybrid, but delayed the move to help customers "in a difficult economic climate".
