The new EV will ride on Renault-Nissan&#8217;s CMF-EV platform, which has been conceived for vehicles up to 4.7 meters that have a maximum wheelbase of 2.78 meters.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10938\" src=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"2560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-1-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-1-2048x2048.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s unclear at this point how large it will be, but it will definitely slot above the Megane E-Tech Electric, which has an overall length of 4.21 meters and measures 2.7 meters between the axles. Even if it will be roughly as large as the Kadjar, being a bespoke EV from day one will make it more spacious inside thanks to better packaging and shorter overhangs.<\/p>\n<p>Le Borgne said the unnamed EV is being developed to &#8220;easily fit our 60 [kWh battery],&#8221; adding the vehicle could have a floor-mounted pack as large as 87 kWh. Equipped with the bigger of the two batteries, it should enable the SUV to cover about 310 miles between charging. Speaking of which, it\u2019ll take just 35 minutes to charge the battery from 10% to 80%, resulting in a range of approximately 190 miles.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10939\" src=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-2-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-2-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-2-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Renault-Megane-E-Tech-Electric-2-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>According to <em>Auto Express<\/em>, the version equipped with the smaller battery will have an electric motor good for 215 hp whereas the 87 kWh model is expected to have a slightly punchier 239 hp e-motor.
