The fourth generation of the Twingo is Renault's answer to affordable Chinese EVs, boasting chic styling inspired by the original

After the Renault 5 and 4, the french carmaker adds another affordable retrochic car 30 years after the original. It‘ll be available for under 20.000€ or less than 100€ per month. Adding an ultra efficient 10kWh/100km consumption would be a really interesting affordable offer for the european market. It‘s main competitors will be the Citroen C3, Fiat Panda, W ID2 and potentially a Tesla Model 2.

    How the hell do they get €100 a month from €20000? That’s 200 months without any interest.

      Probably assuming money down??? Idk that’s pretty crazy. Or maybe they DO mean 200 months, I wouldn’t put it past companies or banksanymore.

      Basically you‘ll get up to €7-9K eco bonuses from the government in France for small EVs and those immediately go to the Manufacturer basically as downpayment.

      20k = 7k incentives (which replaces the down paiement), 4.8k monthly paiements (48x100) - 8.2k residual value?

      Change your residual value to the number to the number you need (less months=less residual). Ofc that’s not how it’s calculated, but it gives a good idea of how you can achieve the monthly cost.
