The Renault Z.E. (Z.E. stands for Zero Emission) is a line of all-electric cars from Renault. The line began with the Z.E series of concept cars. The first production car is the Renault Fluence Z.E. that was slated for sales to the public in Israel and Denmark by late 2011[citation needed] as part of the Better Place network, operated by Renault Fluence ZE cars.[1][2] In 2011 Renault was awarded a contract to supply 15,600 electric vehicles to the French government and the state-owned postal service, La Poste. The vehicles are to contribute to a planned 25,000 electric vehicle fleet owned by the French government.[3]
The Z.E. branding is also used for Renault Trucks's electric models, despite being a separate company.
Global Renault Z.E. vehicle sales passed the 100,000 unit milestone in September 2016.[4] The Renault Zoe is the ZE top selling model, and global sales of the electric city car achieved the 150,000 unit milestone in June 2019.[5]
In 2021 the Z.E. brand was phased out with existing Z.E. models rebranded as E-Tech Electric.
