With its ultra-compact dimensions (2.34m long, 1.24m wide and 1.45m tall), Renault Twizy was born for urban driving. Homologated as a quadricycle (light or heavy depending on the engine), it ships with a choice of three trim levels and two engines, with or without a driving license.
Presented in its definitive form at the Paris Motor Show, Renault Twizy was designed from the outset as an ultramobile all-electric two-seater vehicle (TWIN and EASY).
Renault Twizy has a range of 100 km over a standard urban cycle and can be fully recharged in 3 ½ hours from a domestic socket, using a spiral cable located under the flap at the front of the car.
Renault Twizy ships with a 13 kW (17 hp) electric motor delivering 57 Nm and with a top speed of 80 kph for the version requiring a driving licence. Renault Twizy 45 – the version requiring no licence – is driven by a 4 kW (5 hp) motor with maximum torque of 33 Nm available from start-up and a top speed limited to 45 kph. Renault Twizy is equipped with 6.1 kWh lithium-ion batteries located under the front seats.
