What we're looking for: Parity with conventional hatchbacks. Do either of these electric cars have what it takes to persuade buyers to part with their cash? ELECTRIC CARS. TOO many compromises, right? They're too pricey, too impractical and too likely to run out of charge before you get to where you're going. Well, the new Renault Zoe and revised Nissan Leaf are designed to change this. With both cars, you lease the battery instead of buying it outright, which brings down the list price; the Zoe and Leaf are no more expensive than their diesel-powered rivals. What's more, both have family-friendly hatchback bodies and a claimed range of more than 100 miles.
