. The Megane E-Tech Electric measures 4.21 m long with a wheelbase of 2.7 m and 1.5 m tall. The Megane E-Tech Electric adopts a new ‘sensual-tech’ design language inside and out, according to Renault, and its lighting units in particular feature laser-cut enclosures to emphasise modernity.
Interior space in the Megane E-Tech Electric is comparable to that of the internal combustion Megane, albeit with more rear passenger knee room at 21 cm, says Renault. The added wheelbase relative to the internal combustion car aids overall spaciousness in the in the E-Tech Electric, while a more pared-back dashboard and a flatter cabin floor is possible thanks to the lack of engine and driveshafts.
Battery life is optimised by intelligent battery cooling and cabin heating management, where a new-generation heat pump improves battery performance by 30%, or by lowering temperature by 10 degrees Celsius. Energy lost by the batteries and powertrain through heat is reused to heat the cabin when required, and this has been made possible through a new liquid-cooling system for both batteries and powertrain.

Additional ADAS functions include lane departure warning, blind spot warning and lane keeping assist, now incorporating emergency lane keeping assist . This operates between 65 km/h and 160 km/h, and combines information from the vehicle’s front camera and side radar to automatically re-centre the vehicle in the event it detects a risk of a side collisions, and between 65-110 km/h where it can detect a possible head-on collision.
