Benefits of electric

Offering an all-electric range of up to 280 miles

Pure-electric Renaults are as practical and powerful as their traditional equivalents – and they’re far more efficient while producing zero CO2 emissions. Whether you’re looking for something that’s kinder to the environment or easier on your wallet, electrified power is the solution.

 Government incentives – Electric and hybrid vehicle owners will benefit from lower Vehicle Excise Duty rates and can enjoy discounts on home-charging solutions.
Low running costs – 100% electric vehicles are the most affordable kind of motor car to run and maintain.
Environmental benefits – pure-electric vehicles produce zero CO2 emissions, while hybrids offer lower emissions for a cleaner environment.
