The evaluation begins with the Zoe running through the cones at 46 mph (74 km/h). The test was passed with no problems by the tiny EV. According to the driver, the electronic stability control kicks in after the vehicle exits the second series cones. This helps keep the vehicle on track.

The speed goes up slightly to 47 mph (76 km/h). The stability control activates now at the beginning of the second cone group, instead of at the end. However, the Renault can still complete the challenge.

The team finally pushes the velocity up to 50 mph (80 km/h). Although the difference of only 4 mph (8.695 percent) may seem small, it has a significant impact on the test’s performance. Because the stability control system can’t keep the rear end under control, it allows the vehicle to slide out and hit two cones in its final section.
