By / 3 years ago / UK News / No Comments

Electric car subscription service Onto has ordered 1,050 Renault Zoe E-Tech for its growing BEV-only fleet.

The majority of the cars will join the Onto fleet in Q4 2021 with the remainder in January 2022

Onto has offered Renault’s electric supermini since the business was founded in 2017 and the new order means the Zoe E-Tech now accounts for over a quarter of its fleet, which numbers more than 4,000 cars as of September 2021. Due to fast-rising awareness of electric vehicles and demand, Onto is typically doubling its fleet size every six months.

Onto’s new order consists of Zoe E-Tech Iconic and Zoe E-Tech GT Line, with both variants specified with rapid charge capability, which allows 90 miles of charge to be restored in 30 minutes.

Prices start from £389 a month and include insurance, breakdown cover and maintenance. The monthly subscription also includes the electricity to charge the car via RFID cards that provide free access to the BP Pulse, Shell Recharge and InstaVolt charging networks with over 12,000 stations in the UK..

Rob Jolly, CEO and co-founder at Onto, said: “The Zoe has proved to be one of the most popular choices for Onto subscribers and we’ve had some very positive feedback on it. Customers say it’s a great all-rounder and praise its value for money, driving experience and brilliant range.

“The Zoe E-Tech will continue to play an important role in our product offering as we grown the business, and we hope to continue our partnership with Renault in 2022 and beyond. As we look to the future, we will also be considering other Renault E-Tech models, too.”
