Overview
- The production Twingo revives the 1992 silhouette with round headlights as Renault leverages a familiar name to boost EV uptake.
- Developed in about two years with engineering work at Renault’s ACDC R&D centre in Shanghai, the car will be assembled in Slovenia.
- A 27.5 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery from CATL underpins claimed figures of 82 hp, 129 lb ft, about 163 miles WLTP range and 50 kW DC fast charging.
- Standard and announced features include sliding individual rear seats, a 10-inch central screen, an AI “Reno” assistant, one‑pedal driving and bi‑directional charging via Mobilize Power.
- Alliance plans include a Nissan version and a lower‑priced Dacia variant targeting under €18,000, with Renault saying sales of the Twingo start in early 2026.
