The Renault 4 E-Tech electric has been named ‘Best Value EV’ at the Electrifying.com Awards 2026, continuing Renault’s strong performance in the electric vehicle market after the Renault 5 E-Tech electric secured the same award last year.
Selected from every new electric vehicle on sale, the Renault 4 E-Tech electric impressed the judges with its well-rounded combination of performance, character and everyday practicality, alongside its strong value credentials.
The Electrifying.com Awards are judged by a panel of independent EV experts and celebrate vehicles that deliver genuine innovation, value and real-world usability. This latest recognition highlights Renault’s continued leadership within the mainstream electric vehicle sector.
Commenting on the win, Vicky Parrot, Editor of Electrifying.com, said:
“The Renault 4 is a rare thing: an affordable, practical family car that appeals to both the heart and the head. It’s packed with character, genuinely fun to drive, and properly useful day to day.”
The entire Renault 4 E-Tech electric range now qualifies for the enhanced Government Electric Car Grant, following the introduction of new ‘+’ versions.
Designed with everyday use in mind, the Renault 4 E-Tech electric offers impressive interior space thanks to its 2.62-metre wheelbase, ensuring strong rear passenger comfort. Practicality is further enhanced by a 420-litre boot, which expands to 1,405 litres when the rear seats are folded. Inside, Renault’s OpenR Link multimedia system comes as standard across the range, controlled via a 10.1-inch central touchscreen. Power comes from a 52kWh battery, delivering a range of up to 247 miles (WLTP), while 100kW DC fast charging enables a 15–80% recharge in around 30 minutes.
