In the photos, the Renault Megane E-Tech looks moderately long, but noticeably low. The last value was significantly affected by the small ground clearance. However, in terms of proportions and body massiveness, the car looks like a full-fledged C-class crossover (this effect is enhanced by the protective body kit), rather than a crossover hatch, as the manufacturer positions it.
Overall, the new product looks like a worthy competitor to the popular in the EU electric hatchback of the golf class Volkswagen ID.3.
Recall that the electric Megane has a length of 4.21 meters, a width of 1.78 meters and a height of 1.50 meters. The wheelbase is 2.70 meters. The car's styling is a combination of existing solutions and completely new design techniques (for example, the atypical narrow elongated optics at the front and rear attract attention).
The car is built on the CMF-EV electric platform. Two batteries are provided for the buyer to choose from, one for 40 kWh, the other for 60 kWh. In the first case, the electric crossover can travel 300 km (according to the WLTP cycle), in the second - 470 km. Charging with a power of up to 130 kW is possible (in top versions).
The Renault Megane E-Tech is driven by an electric motor, the power of which varies depending on the battery block. The 40-kilowatt-hour version has 130 hp (250 Nm), and the 60-kilowatt-hour version has 218 hp (and 300 Nm). The older version can accelerate to 100 km/h in 7.4 seconds. The maximum speed is electronically limited to 160 km/h.
