Our Zoe is coming up to its fifth service, which is the cheaper 'A' service. Looking online, the basic price including MOT varies from £100 to £150 locally. It offers an option to change the coolant for ~£100 to "prevent the engine from overheating". I didn't realise that the ZOE's electric motor was water-cooled - I thought it was only the batteries.
While I'm all for preventative maintenance, I'm not really sure how much the coolant can 'degrade'? I've so far managed to do without a new 12V battery, though I do test it regularly. So is it really worth doing the coolant?
