This Tesla Model S Vs Renault Zoe Showdown Is Actually Quite Close
Is the Model S P100D actually worth the huge premium over a small electric car? Time to find out...
The Tesla Model S P100D is considerably faster, roomier and more luxurious than an entry-level electric car like the Renault Zoe. But it’s also far more expensive.
That’s what makes this cheap vs expensive showdown from Car Wow particularly interesting. Is the P100D really worth the premium? Time to find out via drag races, a range test, a brake test and more…
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

It’s like comparing a capsicum to a Bhut Jolokia, both belong to the same group, but oh boy, is one of them hotter.
Knowing the average reliability of Tesla I would go with the Zoe,its also a more discreet car if you live on a dangerous hood
So close…Think I must sell the Tesla and buy the Zoe…
I want Model S becuz
LUDICROUS MODE!!!!!
The thing I like about Teslas is that they made a desirable electric car, in the way that one would want to have it even if it wasn’t electric. You cannot say the same about the Renault Zoe or about the Nissan Leaf or the Mitsubishi i-MiEV, can you?
Too bad that the build quality is terrible. Maybe “Made in USA” isn’t a sign of quality after all.
Zoe is so old & ugly
I’d rather go for e-Gold/A3 e-tron or, probably more sensible, the new Leaf

I rather have an i3 over the Zoe.

A cornering test of some sort would have been interesting. I think it would have been enough to equalise the score.
