The third-generation Twingo was previously offered in an electric variant, and the latest iteration will be powered exclusively by electricity. Dacia, a brand within the Renault group, currently offers the budget-friendly electric car, the “Spring,” with a starting price under 19,000 euros. The new Twingo is anticipated to be among the most affordable electric cars available, with an expected starting price of 20,000 euros (though the specific price in Lithuania remains unannounced).
A key specification point for the new model is its battery capacity, which measures 27.5 kWh. According to the manufacturer, this capacity supports an average driving range of 263 kilometers. However, it is noted that this range will be considerably reduced in cold weather conditions, suggesting that covering 200 kilometers during winter months could pose a challenge.
Nevertheless, the vehicle’s intended use as a city car suggests that such long-distance capability may not be a primary requirement. Another notable advantage highlighted is the Twingo’s relatively light weight, weighing 1,200 kilograms. This low mass is presented as a significant benefit for urban driving.
Overall, the combination of its expected competitive price, electric powertrain, and manageable size positions the new Twingo as a viable option for city commuters.
