The next ZOE model year (originally 2014 but probably now delayed) will have a second low power charger installed in the car for domestic socket compatibility. We ran some tests with the ZOE in the UK and managed to charge down to 6A 230V but we suspect no energy was going into the battery and gave up after 24 hours.
