After the Hippie Caviar Hotel 2021 study, Renault is bringing out another camping version at the IAA Commercial Vehicles 2022 for hobby campers and sports fans as a show car. The Hippie Caviar Motel based on the Kangoo Rapid E-Tech Electric is the more compact version of the hotel and is a mobile companion for all outdoor sports activities and outdoor experiences.
With the announcement of the new Renault Megane in 2020, Renault announced new standards in drive, charging and battery technology. This includes compact batteries and the CCS fast charging connection as standard. When looking at the price list, there are some interesting extras to consider.
Renault is launching an important technical update with the Kangoo Rapid E-TECH 100% Electric in spring 2022. The new edition is equipped with a larger 45 kWh lithium-ion battery and a 90 kW electric motor. A more efficient charging connection has been redesigned, the battery of the Kangoo Rapid E-TECH 100% can now also be charged with direct current of up to 75 kW. The production site is still the French site in Maubeuge.
Renault is putting a moving hotel on wheels for glamping fans. An electric camping van study is celebrating its premiere at the Düsseldorf Caravan Salon and comes up with a number of highlights. This includes, for example, an exclusive equipment up to the delivery drone, which is supposed to deliver online orders directly to the roof of the camper.
Renault is also feeling the demands for emission-free mobility in the future. In response, the brand is revealing its plans for the next few years as part of its “Renaulution” strategy. According to the company, an important pillar will be the introduction of seven all-electric models by 2025. We take a look at the new start or - as Renault calls it - the “new wave”.
The Renault Twingo Electric was previously only available as a special Vibes model. Now Renault has announced the prices and trim levels. As with the Zoe, the equipment variants can be ordered in the three stages Life, Zen and Intens as well as the special Vibes model. The new price list now also provides information on all equipment options.
