Engine power and kerb weight are registration-weighted averages of the Renault Zoe registered in the EU/EEA in 2025 (67 cars), engine power from 12 countries, kerb weight from 13 countries. Source: EEA COâ‚‚ monitoring (CC BY 4.0).
Engine power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the power of the combustion engine, not the system power, and for electric cars it can differ from the peak power the manufacturer advertises.

Power by engine variant (Norway)
5,462 Renault Zoe cars registered for the first time in Norway in 2019–2022, by drivetrain and type-approved engine power. The EEA data has no trim names, so variants are told apart by power.
| Drivetrain | Power | Kerb weight | Years | Registered in Norway |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electric | 68 kW (91 hp) | 1,548 kg | 2019 | 179 |
| Electric | 80 kW (107 hp) | 1,576 kg | 2019–2022 | 2,570 |
| Electric | 100 kW (134 hp) | 1,577 kg | 2019–2022 | 2,713 |
Power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the combustion engine, not the system output; for electric cars it can differ from the peak power in the maker’s marketing.

WLTP range by version
Type-approved WLTP range of the electric versions of the Renault Zoe, as recorded for each car in the Dutch vehicle register (RDW). The table shows the median; the spread is where 80% of the cars fall.
| Power | Range | Spread | Consumption | First registered | Cars in NL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 68 kW (91 hp) | 317 km | – | 159 Wh/km | 2018–2021 | 567 |
| 80 kW (107 hp) | 392 km | 316–393 km | 174 Wh/km | 2018–2024 | 3,045 |
| 100 kW (134 hp) | 382 km | 356–388 km | 180 Wh/km | 2019–2025 | 4,764 |
WLTP is the test cycle of EU type approval, so the same version carries the same figure across the EU/EEA. Power is the net maximum electric power from the same register. Versions with fewer than 20 cars are left out. Source: Open Data RDW (Netherlands, CC0).
