Renault has announced that it is further exploring the electric vehicle space by bringing back one of its compact and most affordable cars. The Twingo will be returning as soon as 2026 as an EV model (also known as the Legend) that is said to produce CO2 emissions that are roughly 75% lower than the average ICE car that is sold in Europe in 2023.
The new Twingo was announced as part of Renault's Ampere Capital Markets Day, and was shown as a concept model, meaning we're still waiting to hear specifics about the car and the sort of range/charge time that it will be looking to deliver when it debuts most likely in 2026, but with a chance for late 2025 too.
In terms of the pricing, Renault has noted that the EV Twingo could retail for around £17,000.
The conference announcing the Twingo also showed off a slate of other EVs, including the Renault 4, Renault 5, Megan E-Tech, and the Scenic E-Tech. These cars are either already available or set to debut within the next 18 months, bolstering Renault's EV portfolio.
