More to it than that it seems.
The NCAP tests have been upgraded, but the ZOE has not been and apparently in some areas is now worse.

Also, Euro NCAP adds “The (2021) Zoe, a facelift introduced in 2020, received several battery improvements but no added safety. On the contrary, the seat-mounted side airbag which previously protected head and thorax has been replaced by a less effective thorax-only airbag, representing a degradation in occupant protection. The new Zoe offers poor protection in crashes overall, poor vulnerable road user protection and lacks meaningful crash avoidance technology, disqualifying it for any stars.”
