Trafic alone has sold 2.2m units sold in 50 countries worldwide since 1980 and, Renault claimed, is Europe’s third most popular light utility vehicle in the Van segment [Ford Transit Custom tops the charts].
The new E-Tech BEV version claims best-in-class length, modularity, and customisation for a van and is built to order: 5.08m or 5.48m long and 1.967m or 2.498m high; storage volume (in van mode) ranges from 5.8m3 to 8.9m3; it is available as a cab-floor model; load length can extend up to 4.15m (on the extended L2 version featuring the ‘long-load’ trapdoor located in the bulkhead).
A 90kW electric motor gives a 750kg towing capacity and the vab can carry up to 1.1 tonnes. The 52kWh battery has a range of 240km WLTP.
Three charger types are available: a single-phase 7kW AC unit, suitable for all types of domestic charging, a 22kW AC charger for rapid charging at public charging stations; plus an optional 50kW DC charger for fast charging on motorways.
