I've driven the Zoe on a daily commute that's 160 km (100 mi). It's a fantastic car.

I've also driven it from The Netherlands to France, 1000 km (621 mi). Then you get into a problem that the charging time from 10-80% takes a full hour, and it's necessary about 5 times for that distance. I personally still thought it was a fun trip.

That long trip is actually not bad at all ... I mean, one hour 10-80% is totally fine for me. Grab a meal, freshen up. All good.

Good to hear.

That's with the 40 kWh version. I believe the 50 kWh version has the same charge curve, but obviously gets you farther.

You can get much faster there if you charge more often and stop around 60-70%. On long trips, I take a lot of margin, which isn't necessary if you drive to somewhere you know really well (say, a second home) and which has plenty of chargers.

I have to admit, I'm a bit in love with this car. So I'm perhaps overly positive.
