SMM: as a pioneer in the field of electric vehicles, Renault Group has always been in a leading position in the European electric vehicle market. By the end of November 2020, Renault had sold a total of 95985 electric vehicles worldwide this year, an increase of 80% over the same period last year, which fully shows that the Renault electric car series perfectly meets the diversified needs of the current market.

The third-generation Renault ZOE, launched in 2019, uses a new design, adds the latest features, and has become a benchmark in the areas of battery life, versatility and efficiency. Renault ZOE, Europe's best-selling electric passenger car, sold more than 84000 vehicles from January to November 2020, almost double the number sold in the same period in 2019.

Since its launch in 2010, Renault ZOE has sold more than 268000 vehicles in Europe. Renault ZOE has become a leader in electric car sales in major European countries such as France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Portugal.

Renault Kangoo Z.E. Since it was launched in 2010, it has been firmly at the top of the sales list of electric light commercial vehicles. By the end of November 2020, Renault had sold 8498 Kangoo Z.E., equivalent to every three electric light commercial vehicles sold, one of which was Kangoo Z.E. Since listing, Kangoo Z.E. A total of 57595 vehicles have been sold in Europe.

As soon as the new Renault Twingo electric car was launched, it set a new benchmark for A-class electric cars, with 1760 registrations in Europe. With its compact and flexible, modular design and range of 190km (WLTP mixed mode) / 270km (WLTP city condition), the Twingo electric vehicle series has become the best commuter companion for people to commute.

Luogile (Gilles Normand), senior vice president of Renault's electric vehicles and travel services business, commented on the sales of his electric vehicle series: "despite the impact of the epidemic, sales of electric vehicles in Europe are still very high. In mainstream European markets, electric car sales are growing by about 70% to 80%. At present, electric car sales account for about 5% of the total sales.

From January to November 2020, Renault ZOE sold more than 84000 vehicles, double that of the same period last year. Renault ZOE has performed strongly in both major European car markets: 33000 units have been sold in France and more than 25000 in Germany. Throughout the development of ZOE, its versatility and first-class mileage have been praised. The Renault ZOE is the highest-selling electric car in Europe so far this year. "

Renault's pure electric vehicle series also includes Renault Twizy (cumulative sales of more than 31000 vehicles) and Renault Master Z.E. There are two types of vans (with a deadweight of up to 3.5 tons). It is because of its strong expertise in electric cars that Renault has been able to launch new models. A few days ago, Renault opened a new chapter in the development of electrification, launching Renault Megana (Megane) eVision.

Based on the alliance's CMF-EV platform, Megana eVision production cars will become the main force in Renault's impact on the C-class electric car market. In addition to the pure electric model matrix, Renault will also build hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions of its best-selling models, the Clio, Captur, Megana and Arkana.
