Key Highlights:
The Renault Megane E-Tech, a sleek electric vehicle from the French automaker, has been spotted in India, marking its first appearance on Indian roads. This sighting sparks curiosity about Renault's plans in the growing electric vehicle (EV) market in the country.
Sources reveal that Renault has imported the Megane E-Tech to India for internal testing and evaluation. While there were previous speculations about a potential India launch, the current status of those plans remains uncertain.

Sitting on the CMF-EV platform, the Megane E-Tech offers versatility with multiple battery pack options – 40kWh and 60kWh. The electric vehicle comes with two motor outputs: a base 130hp and 250Nm, or a more potent 218hp and 300Nm. Renault claims an impressive range of up to 470km, depending on the chosen battery configuration.
In European markets, the Megane E-Tech competes with prominent electric vehicles such as the Hyundai Kona Electric, Mini Cooper SE, and Kia Niro EV. Despite its success in Europe, Renault's plans for introducing the Megane E-Tech in India remain uncertain, and no official launch details are available at the moment.
Renault is actively exploring opportunities in the Indian EV landscape, with considerations for an entry-level EV based on the CMF-A EV platform. In addition to its EV plans, the brand is gearing up for the India launch of the all-new Duster by the end of 2024 or early 2025. The sighting of the Megane E-Tech raises anticipation for Renault's electric future in the Indian automotive market.
Renault's Megane E-Tech, recently spotted in India, unveils the brand's electric ambitions. While its purpose for internal testing sparks speculation about an Indian launch, Renault is actively studying the EV market.
