Summary

The Renault Twingo Electric is a 4-seat hatchback with rear-wheel drive, sold new from 2020 to 2024, when it cost €28,000 in Germany, and now only available second-hand. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 12.6 seconds, slower than 97% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 84 miles (135 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That is the shortest of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and the shortest of 67 hatchbacks.

It uses around 3.9 mi/kWh (158 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 21.3 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 0 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 57 miles (92 km) at motorway speeds.

No heat pump is listed for this version, and it does not support vehicle-to-load (V2L).

Second-hand in Germany, a 2020 example is estimated at €6,500–€8,600 and a 2024 one at €13,300–€15,000, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2020 car should still manage about 75 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
