Compare 22 kWh Renault Zoe with 41 kWh Zoe

Under the bonnet of 2 Renault Zoe:s

In this video we get a demonstration of some diffrences between a early 2014 model vs a newer 2018 ev.


Charging and inverter and orange high voltage cable. Where the batteries are placed and so on.

12V battery starts the vehicle, lights , standard 12v battery same as ICE car. You got a dc to dc converter that is charging the 12V battery from the 400 vold dc (big battery).


22kWh vehicle vs 41 kwh zoe

Early 2014 version motor Q210 until 2015. The motor was made from Continental. Has rapid charging 43kW (AC rapid charging).


The 2018 version has the R-motor. This is called R110, made by Renault. Only has 22kW AC charging.

Master fuse / switch is under the drivers mat.

Common problem: 
Droplinks - antirollbar. The droplinks wear really quickly on the Renault Zoe. Knocking on the fronts.
Vented bonnet system makes greasy bonnet.

"Din e-Golf kommer upp till 100 km/h från stillastående på bara 9,6 sekunder. Upp till 60 km/h kommer du på 4,2 sekunder."

This is a video I made:

Cleaning car floor mats on BMW i3

Clean your floor mats

"hittat en gummi och plastdresser som inte glänser allt för mycket och go avrinning."

In swedish:
"Efter varje säsong så kör jag deras avfettning (mkt reklam här hehe) och vit svamp. Sedan hydrosilex på det för att skydda eller silica dressingen, dock blir den sistnämnda rätt hal om den inte får torka in ordentligt. Sedan så spolar jag alltid av mattorna när jag ändå tvättar bilen men jag vet att missfärgningen kom snabbt i början så knepet är en gummi/plast coating som man hela tiden uppdaterar." - David Olsson
