DETAILS ABOUT THE CAR:
Here's the 2022 Renault Megane E-Tech electric SUV in flame red color. Checkout Interior, exterior design, features, driving in this video.

The all-new Mégane E-Tech Electric crossover is another serious ‘budge up’ from battery technology as it starts to shove combustion engines out of the mainstream. After all, the Mégane is a trusty old member of the family hatchback class, but this new car is purely electric – albeit to be sold alongside the plug-in hybrid Mégane for a couple of years.

This is also an important car for Renault, since it’s the first model to sit on its new EV-specific modular platform, the CMF-EV.

In this guise, that means front-wheel drive and a slimline mattress of lithium ion batteries with a usable capacity of either 40kWh or 60kWh, which translates to a WLTP range of 186 or 292 miles. DC rapid charging can be done at a rate of up to 130kW on the 60kWh model, which is good for a 10-80% charge in half an hour. Expect the 40kWh model to have slower charging (the CCS rapid-charging plug might even be optional), but every Mégane E-Tech Electric will be able to take 22kW from an AC charger.

Calling it a hot hatch is overstating the truth, but on the evidence of our drive in a 60kWh pre-production car, it would be fair to say that this is the most fun you can have in an electric family car in the £30,000-£40,000 price range.

Provided you can forgive the peculiarly squarish wheel, the steering response is quick yet light, even when weighted up in Sport mode, and works well with a front end that’s keen to dive into a corner.

A 160kW/299Nm electric motor spins the front axle, fed in this top-spec S Edition by a 60kWh battery between the 20-inch wheels. That gives an official range of 470km; the 40kWh pack is good for 300km. This EV40 model gets a lower power motor producing 96kW.

Renault says the e-motor and clutch combined only weigh 145kg. It’s all part of a forensic program to minimise weight on this new, dedicated electric CMF-EV platform, which also underpins the Nissan Ariya.

Swing open the front door and the Megane’s cabin is more traditional than an ID.3’s. It’s still dominated by digital displays, with a 12.3-inch screen in front of the driver and a 12-inch portrait-orientated screen in the centre, seamlessly joined together in a classy black panel that also incorporates air vents.

Using the infotainment screen makes you wonder why more car makers don’t use a portrait configuration – it’s how we all use our mobile phones after all. The killer feature, though, is that it’s powered by Google, with the best voice control we’ve ever used.
