Registered on the FIA Calendar and scheduled in the Monaco Principality’s program events from October 12 to 16, 2016, the e-Monte-Carlo Rally, wanted innovative by their creators, displays a “pioneering spirit” which offers a large place to the human adventure and the future technologies.
The Rallye Monte-Carlo “ZENN”, which was previously reserved only for competitors entered with a 100% electric vehicle, will now be open to the 100% non-polluting and CO2-free vehicles (Electric, Fuel Cell (hydrogen), Solar, Compressed Air … Etc. etc.), with 4 wheels, registered for road use, for a minimum of 2 people and a maximum of 5.
For this new event, the Organizing Committee of the Automobile Club de Monaco has deliberately opened a new page of the “Rallye Monte-Carlo des Energies Nouvelles”, initiated in 1995, and the former Monte-Carlo Rally ZENN (Zero Emission – No Noise). A radical change due to reply to the specific requirements from the competitors but also from the car manufacturers, governments, car fleets or city communities.
The route of this new endurance event, with a total distance of about 1000 km, will be announced shortly.
Four Renault ZOE models are competing in the 6th ZENN Monte-Carlo Rally on March 20 to 22. ZOE is putting its title on the line to once again prove that electric power can combine environmental concerns and automotive passion.
The 6th ZENN Monte-Carlo Rally (ZENN being short for “zero emissions, zero noise”) is a prestigious motorsport competition open exclusively to electric cars with a range of under 250 km.
Like its renowned parent competition, the Monte-Carlo Rally, the ZENN Rally is run in the Principality of Monaco . Competing in regularity events and stopping off at charging stations, the drivers will snake along the famous winding roads of Col de la Madone, Saint-Agnès, Breil-sur-Roya and Sospel.
Visitors from around the world will attend the race starts and finishes at the Port of Monaco . They will also get the chance to visit the “electric” village featuring a range of exhibitions, vehicle test drives and special installations on the theme of tomorrow’s automobile and sustainable development. A manoeuvrability contest will also be held on the morning of March 22 at the southern harbor of the Port of Monaco .
ZOE has sold in over 21,000 units worldwide since launch in 2013, with sales rising a full 54% in Europe in 2014. Already the benchmark vehicle in terms of performance and range, ZOE will be fitted with an all-new, 100% Renault engine at the end of spring.
