The Renault Megane E-Tech is a compact family SUV that offers something for everyone. It has the strong looks you’d expect from Renault, a brand famed for its unique styling, combined with some truly impressive technology, comfort and practicality, all at an appealing price.
Key highlights
The Megane name first debuted on UK roads way back in the mid-90s, and the new E-Tech model brings this established family car into the electric era. Renault has rolled out the red carpet when it comes to on-board tech, with an Android-based infotainment system that is as responsive to use as your smartphone – even the voice control works a treat. The Renault Megane E-Tech also offers some added eco-credentials, such as using 20kg of recycled materials within the construction and installing no rare earth metals in the motor. It’s practical, too, with space for five adults and a deep 440-litre boot.
Performance and range
The Megane E-Tech is impressive on the road with a 0-62mph time that matches most hot hatches. The 60kWh battery is enough for 280 miles, and if you do need to pull into the GRIDSERVE Electric Highway to top up enroute, you’ll get maximum charging speeds of 130kW (that’s 15-80% in just 30 minutes). Choosing which version you want is easy, too, with three trim levels offering various levels of luxury and no add-on packs or lengthy options list to confuse you.

The highest range of the Megane E-Tech comes in the form of the EV60 96kW Evolution Ext Range, which officially has 292 miles of range, which equates to 248 miles of real-world range.

The Megane E-Tech can support rapid charging of up to 130kW, which can charge the car from 10% full to 80% in just 30 minutes, allowing you to get back out on the roads in no time. If you’re charging at home on a 7kW connection, it would take around nine hours to charge from empty to full.
If space and size is something you’re looking for with your next compact family SUV, then Renault’s Megane E-Tech could be an exceptional option.
