Meet the all-new Renault Megane!
The Megane is back and it’s only available as an EV! The question is, should you consider it over electric competitors like the Kia e-Niro and Cupra Born? Let’s find out…
For starters, it’s a super stylish car. From the rear, it comes with a wide LED light strip, a mini roof spoiler and a gold strip around the diffuser (for top spec cars, that is). It also comes with a contrasting black roof, integrated door handles and 20” alloy wheels! The front end’s just as good, with thin headlights, swooping daytime running lights and even contours in the bonnet!
The quality continues on the inside, too. The dash comes covered in fabric and there are other soft touch materials throughout the cabin. There’s a big infotainment screen in the centre of the dash, as well as a big digital drivers display. The steering wheel is in a hexagonal shape, and all-in-all looks pretty smart.
In terms of performance, the Megane comes with a big 60kWh battery pack, along with a single electric motor that can deliver 217hp and 300Nm of torque. It has a claimed range of 280 miles, and a top speed of 99mph.
In terms of price, the Megane starts from around £36,000. But is it worth it? You’ll have to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

Having owned the ID.3 and now a Renault Megane E-Tech, the best way I can put it is the Megane feels like I’m driving a proper, rather luxurious car, while the ID.3 felt more like an appliance. As if I was driving a Nespresso machine.

Got mine eight weeks ago. So far I really like it. I‘m in Germany, so got the bigger centre screen, which is awesome. Google Maps comes with a special ev trip calculator that will automatically include stops for charging and tells you everything you need to know, too, like with what soc you will arrive at your charging station, how long you will have to charge in order to reach the next stop etc. The rear view mirror actually doubles as a screen for a rear view camera which solves the issue with the small rear window. Awesome feature!

We had a megane scenic, years ago. The killer feature was that the central seat in the rear could come forward of the outer seats, and it had a roof-mounted inertial reel belt. So we could get three stage one baby seats in the back. Handy if you have triplets. ;-) It was a nice car overall, too. Enough space in the back for a triple buggy, too, and drove well.

Another great review. Giving us two recommendations at the end based on different needs is a good idea. My current pet peeve.... Why do so many quite nice smaller E-cars NOT have electrically operated hatches? This is very frustrating. I and my family members are simply used to being able to get the liftgate up with no effort and thus having the flexibility of having full arms. Plus, having to use strength to pull it down again is a no-go for my wife, who has had carpal tunnel operations and has weak hands.

A wonderful review by a superb motoring journalist who has taken all the essence of a car, and distilled it into what makes it great! Well done. I've ordered a top-spec Uk Iconic (with that essential heat pump). It was a straight choice between the Renault and the Tesla Model 3 (forget the id3/MG4......no contest! The 'sterile', boring and poorly made Tesla is now looking so dated, and the tech is so 'yesterday'. And on the 0-60 time.......the claim of 7.5 seconds, is actually 6.9 (that's Mini Cooper S territory but with the instant torque)......how typically French, downplaying it. Unlike the over-exaggerating Italians 😂 . A brilliant touch going to the experts for the tech, Google, constantly updated.......well done Renault!

In so many videos you explain how it’s great to keep the cables under the floor. And in this video, you were talking about how difficult it is to lift in and out cases. Put the two together! On a long trip you have cases. It’s an electric car you have to charge it on the journey. How do you get the cables out?

I’ve ordered one. I only wanted a hatchback rather than a crossover or SUV so smaller size suits me. Arguably the Cupra Born is a better all round car, especially if you are carrying teenage children or young adults as rear seat passengers. Cabin a bit gloomy but quality higher than in the Born. The Google Infotainment system is light years ahead of the VW group set up. I felt a stronger emotional attachment to the Megane than the Born. Neither the Megane nor the Born felt as fun to drive as my current BMW i3 nor as fast despite the i3 motor being nearly 50 bhp down on power - all down to the much higher weight of the Renault and Cupra. TBH at prices knocking on £40k it is difficult to make a case for the Megane unless you do a reasonably high mileage, can save a sizeable BiK tax bill and you can charge cheaply overnight or at work. Renault have done a very good job.

So.. why exactly do you love this car? The exterior is ok, the interior is a mixed bag, the practicality is a mixed bag, the driving is decent but nothing to write home about. Seems to me like Renault focused on entirely the wrong things. Also what is that horrible clank the rear door made when you closed it? Even a Citroen feels better build.
