The age of EVs is coming and now Renault has gone ahead and revealed their electrification plans. The French carmaker will be bringing its first EV for India sometime in 2022.바카라 웹사이트

This information was initially revealed in Renault라이브 바카라 five-year business plan that was revealed in 2017. It stated that Renault will be launching four new vehicles in India between 2017 and 2022 leveraging the heavily localised Kwid라이브 바카라 CMF-A platform. The Triber was the first fruit of Renault라이브 바카라 new business plan. With three more cars in the pipeline, we believe one of them could be this upcoming EV.

The EV will be underpinned by the same CMF-A platform as the Kwid, while theTriber is based on a modified version of the same. The upcoming HBC SUV, too, will be underpinned by the latter. The Kwid facelift/mid-life update will be soon launched in India and by 2022, it should be due for a generation change. Thus, it is not a stretch to imagine that the EV Renault brings to India will be based on the next-generation Kwid.

Currently, Renault offers the City K-ZE in China. It is based on the CMF-A platform and is essentially the Kwid with an EV powertrain. So much so that the upcoming Kwid facelift borrows a lot of design elements from it.

Currently, the Hyundai Kona Electric is the only long-range EV present in India. However, MG will be launching its rival, the MG ZS바카라 웹사이트EV, early next year. Maruti라이브 바카라 WagonR-based EV will also be launched in India next year. Mahindra also has an EV in the pipeline based on the XUV300, while Tata will also launch the Altroz-based EV in 2020.
