Iconic trim is available with either the R110 or the more powerful R135 motor. As well as adding a built-in sat nav, there’s also wireless smartphone charging, climate control and rear parking sensors. You also get 100% recycled seat upholstery and fabric inserts on the dashboard. Safety systems include lane keeping assistance and traffic sign recognition although, disappointingly, you don't get automatic emergency braking.

The more powerful of two electric motors is worth the relatively small premium (over the R110). Acceleration is noticeably stronger above 40mph, making the Zoe more accomplished on fast A-roads and motorways.
