Renault Zoe stalling

My daughter is interested in leasing a Renault Zoe, but has heard that a friend of a friend was happy with one until she was driving along at 60mph and it just stopped dead. The dealer could not offer any explanation! She has rejected the car. Can you suggest what the problem could have been?

Ran out of power in the battery. It's electric. When it runs out the car stops.

I am thinking of replacing our ageing petrol runabout with a used EV of similar size. I notice a number of Renault Zoe models and similar with under 50k miles on offer for around £7-8k, mostly with a hire...
What small electric car do you recommend for me and my wife? We only do 1000 miles per year.
I don't have a car and need to buy one. I would like an electric or hybrid car, an automatic, it has to have easy access because I have a bad back. I will be driving to France soon so I'm not sure about...
