The purpose-built demonstrator used an 87kWh battery - the same size as the Scenic E-Tech - to travel 1,008km at an average of 102km/h, consuming just 7.8kWh per 100km. Renault says the findings will inform future production EVs.
Volkswagen has started public-road testing of its steering-wheel-less Gen.Urban autonomous research vehicle in Wolfsburg, with trials focused on passenger experience rather than deployment.
Renault Trucks has released two new electric rigids, the E Tech D12 and D14, with compact dimensions, 176 kWh LFP batteries and a quoted range of up to 220 km. Both models use full air suspension and AC charging, and will be built at Blainville-sur-Orne.
