Overview

Description

In July 2015, during 3 weeks, we asked 2 journalists to drive around France in a Renault ZOE, so they can go out and meet the electric community. The car's maximum range is of 240 KM on a single charge, so our two ambassadors had to plan out a journey through the homes of France's "electric pioneers", allowing them to properly recharge their ZOE across the country so they could complete their tour of France. Encounters, anecdotes, laughs, things that went wrong… using a camera, they put together a portrait of this incredible community which they shared with Renault's followers. In the end, all of the content which was generated was centralised and rebranded as Le Peuple Electrique
