[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] Renault Samsung Motors announced on the 4th that it has started pre-orders for the Renault Z.O.E (RENAULT Z.O.E) by offering various purchase benefits ahead of the 2021 Seoul City electric vehicle subsidy application.

The Z.O.E, a global bestseller electric vehicle, recorded sales of 100,657 units last year, making it the best-selling EV in the European market. The company emphasized that the Z.O.E, which provides the joy of "pragmatic mobility," has proven its reliability and safety by having zero electric vehicle fire incidents since its launch in 2012.

Renault Samsung Motors will provide customers who purchase the Renault Z.O.E on installment plans in February with a prepaid charging card worth 500,000 KRW, allowing approximately 20,000 km of free driving for one year.

Additionally, there is a financing product with a maximum 72-month term at a 3.9% interest rate, allowing customers to purchase the Z.O.E with monthly installments in the 290,000 KRW range, making it possible to own an electric vehicle like the Z.O.E for less than 10,000 KRW per day. Other options include the Smart Installment Program (24 months at 3.9% and 36 months at 4.9%) and the Smart+ Installment Program (36 months at 4.9%).

For cash purchases, a prepaid charging card worth 200,000 KRW is provided, and an additional special discount of 500,000 KRW is offered to government officials, educators, and employees of public institutions.

Furthermore, the "New Start, Exciting Benefits" special promotion will run throughout February, offering a special discount of 300,000 KRW on vehicle purchases to support customers and their families who have achieved new beginnings despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Z.O.E is sold in three trims: ▲ Zen (3,995,000 KRW) ▲ Intens Eco (4,245,000 KRW) ▲ Intens (4,395,000 KRW). With the Ministry of Environment’s national subsidy of 7,020,000 KRW and additional subsidies from local governments, the purchase price in Seoul can be as low as 29,420,000 KRW.
