Renault ZOE Riviera Limited Edition joins electric supermini range

Renault has temporarily expanded the ZOE electric supermini line-up with the Riviera Limited Edition. True to its name, there'll be just 300 examples of the model made available to order in the UK.

In addition to that dash of exclusivity, buyers also get extra kit on top of what normally comes with a ZOE GT Line – the existing range-topper and also the best-selling version of the ZOE, according to Renault. That extra equipment comprises 'Midnight Blue Metallic' paint, a new design of 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheel (pictured below) and painted white body stripes.

There's also a hands-free parking assistance system, full LED headlights with LED daytime running lights, a 10-inch driver's display and 9.3-inch infotainment screen, Apple and Android smartphone connectivity, automatic air-conditioning and a mix of recycled cloth and synthetic leather trim.

Under the metal, there's no change to the standard ZOE powertrain, so the Riviera Limited Edition has the same 52kWh battery and circa-240-mile range as the rest of the line-up. The car can be ordered through any Renault main dealer in the UK and is priced at £32,295 after the government grant has been deducted. The rest of the ZOE range, comprising the Play, Iconic and GT Line trim levels, remains on sale as usual.
