Protecting the battery

There is no evidence that keeping a Zoe at a lower charge level helps the battery.
The Zoe is nowhere near as harsh as Tesla on its batteries - energy output and charge rates are lower. It also doesn't let you use the full capacity of the battery to help protect it. It also has had active battery heating / cooling from the air con system from day one (unlike some other manufacturers).

On keeping plugged in, you can pre-condition a Zoe to get it ready to drive. Doing this using mains electricity will save battery capacity.

Zoe is designed to be simple and do the work for you.
