Renault Mégane E-Tech Electric
The Renault Mégane E-Tech Electric is a battery electric subcompact crossover SUV set to be produced by the French car manufacturer Renault from 2022. Using the Mégane nameplate, the vehicle is the first Renault model based on a dedicated electric vehicle platform called the CMF-EV. It is similar in size to the Captur, but the dedicated electric vehicle platform allows for a longer wheelbase and larger interior size.[2] The production version was revealed at the 2021 IAA in Munich in September 2021, while sales in Europe will start in February 2022.[3][4]
