Sebastian Vettel had another boring day. Between the Monaco Grand Prix and Infiniti brand ambassador status, the Red Bull driver had time for an electrifying day with Renault.
The event took place at the Renault Z.E center in Boulogne-Billancourt and in the spotlight was the new Renault ZOE, the Renault Twizy F1 and of course Sebastian Vettel. The German driver was still hung over after his comfortable second place in Monaco, when he got behind the wheel of these two electric cars. If you think it was a normal day in the driver's super busy life, then you're wrong: the Renault ZOE was the first electric car that Sebastian Vettel drove, an absolute first.
Sebastian Vettel I know you're reading this and I hope you're not upset that I drove the Renault ZOE before you. Like me, you also found that inside the Renault ZOE the atmosphere is calm and silent – we top drivers are all the same, aren't we, Sebastian?
The Renault Twizy F1 has a literally “stop traffic” look (in line with all models on which Renault Sport does its “magic”) and the KERS system installed on this Twizy and coming from Formula makes it literally a unique model. Stay with the video:
The new Renault ZOE has been talking about and the Renault Twizy is crazy! What do you think about Renault Sport's bet on these unique models for promotion and Renault's stance in relation to electric cars? Comment here and on our Facebook page.
