I can add my two cents here. Thomas seemed a bit down and did not seem to like it but don't be discouraged. I drove it almost in pretty much the same specification as here, as well as most of it's rivals. TLDR this is one of the best EVs currently. If you're interested, a bit more details: - Efficiency. We saw this powertrain in Ariya much more already and it is very efficient. It's even more efficient in the Megane. It will deliver ~370km range mixed driving. It can do ~13kwh city and 20kwh highway (120-130kph). Even with it's pointlessly big Cd, it's quite a bit more efficient than ID.3 and is close to the Model 3. - Regeneration, as mentioned by Thomas, has modes. Without it, car freewheels amazingly well, feels like it has almost no friction. It does adapt slightly to depending on the speed but mostly the driver controls it with the paddles. I would agree that proper adaptive solution would be best (Tesla is by far the best here) but some cars are harder to predict or have a very weak regeneration setting. In this case, Megane at least let's you choose. The highest setting is pretty strong and stops the car well (but not to a complete halt, unfortunately). - Drives rather well too. FWD EVs aren't the brilliant usually in general because of the massive torque coming suddenly makes them lose traction (Kia and Hyundai EVs were particularly horrible at that) but Megane is the best one so far. It's calibrated properly and is rather progressive, has enough traction for the amount of power. Not as good as RWD (as ID.3) would be but really good enough that it doesn't bother. Interesting that Thomas had an issue with the steering, because I feel it's calibration is one of the best as well (not as good as VW and Tesla, but better than everything else). Suspension is pretty firm but isn't uncomfortable and damn side better than Teslas. Not as good as VW though. Side note: this is my personal biggest downside of the Megane. The whole driving refinement, calibration of fine details feels is good but not brilliant. For example, you can hear small clunks or squeaks from the suspension or the brakes. Not always, but sometimes, especially driving very slowly and trying to get to a very gentle stop. VW feels much more complete in that regard. - Interior is amazing. Blows away everything in this price range, at least in this spec. Miles better than ID.3, Born, Teslas and much closer to XC40, Ioniq 5 and generally premium vehicles. Surprisingly, even built quality, stitching, door handles (inside and out), door closing and stuff like that are very good and much better than we are used to seeing from Renault; would probably rival some premium vehicles in this regard. Some harder plastics here and there, but mostly everything is covered in many nice materials, is soft, switches feel substantial, don't feel cheap and have nice clicks. Separate control for climate is super useful and there are FOUR window switches, for every window (groundbreaking I know). Steering wheel buttons aren't really capacitive, they feel like proper buttons and are just put on one plastic plane. Driving position felt okay, seats are comfortable. - Infotainment with Android is good as well. Not as good as Tesla, but better than anything else. Quick, easy to use. Google Maps are integrated and you can see the map on the driver's screen. - Practicality is a probably the weak point. Trunk is short, though rather deep, not much space in the back seats. Front row is spacious though and there is enough storage space. But no frunk :( - Styling is, of course, a matter of taste. I think it looks okay, definitely much better in person, though I don't think it will age very well.
Great review! Thanks!
Is the e208 worth considering compared to this? Tks!
@@flintdxb7514 I suppose you are considering smaller battery Megane EV40 instead of EV60 if you compare it to the e208. Megane is a much better and more sorted car in every way: nicer to drive, more economical, more space. It helps that it's much newer car and on a proper EV base. Megane in general is a notch above e208 and, of course, more expensive. It compares better and holds it's own even in the company of Model 3 and ID.3. e208 in my mind makes sense only if it's much much cheaper. It's not that economical, not much grip and balance in the suspension, it's rather noisy (lots of road noise and powertrain noise, even compared to ICE cars), not much space and Peugeots generally don't wear very well (interior doesn't hold up well after a while). All in all, much less usable car. The base of the car is a bit older and is compromised because it shares itself with ICE cars. I would have considered e208 only if it was 7-10 thousand cheaper than the Megane. Otherwise, I don't think it's worth it. e208 has some sisters as well (e2008, Corsa E, Mokka E, eC4) and I would prefer Corsa E simply because it's exactly the same car with a different styling (I dont think any of them look very good anyway), but much cheaper though. OR I would be tempted with eC4 because of more space and similar price to the e208. So all in all, objectively Megane is miles better which would be my pick. However, if you are okay with less space, don't need as much refinement, like the look of the e208, and can find it much cheaper than the Megane, it is worth considering as well. I am looking for an EV as well and I've tried to consider most of them, so if you have any other questions, I would be happy to help:)
@@hayashishark7378 Thank you very much for your time and reply, very helpful!
Can we all agree this is 100 times better than an id3 ??
No. Smaller and more expensive.
Yep, id3 and its abysmal software completely disqualifies it.
@@AlanTov it's not smaller where it counts. it has a far bigger boot/trunk and more space in the front.
Went for a test drive this week, quick correction to make sir: the buttons on the steering wheel are not at all touch based. I tried to use all of them and touching did nothing - they're 100% buttons. They just don't look like buttons. It's almost like a diagonal version of a D-pad, if you anyone understands what that is :p
I think this car is actually the only little EV that I would buy . it's attractive and a serious rival to the top Auto Makers.,. I actually don't see a rival to this at the moment at this price in its segment ... and that looks this good...Renault did very well with this. Fresh and dynamic. Excellent!
Renault did a great job on the styling, I especially like the front end. I think it looks better with smaller wheels - these and the blue paint make it look absolutely wonderful! The interior is also MUCH better than I expected
It's actually a rather cute little EV but most importantly, the Android integration is the best out of all proprietary ones
That's true, integration and performance of the Android-based system is really a breeze.
I agree! I have a Volvo with Automotive, and it is just so good! Just got CarPlay through an update, but not sure I will use it much since the built in map, music etc is so good. The Megane is quite attractive.
@@rogerbakke2566 to be honest out of the 2, I'd go Volvo. At least no electronics will fall out or end up in your hands like French cars😁
@@skfunk4550 Yea Renault only released their first electric (Zoe) a DECADE ago surely they learnt nothing. And Volvo is apparently best in business for reliability. Can’t oppose your logic 👌
As a French, you gave me (for the first time in decades) the envy to try a Renault again. (And I drove R21, R25 and Espace) I love the steering wheel, the double flat aspect looks very comfy.
In fact it is very comfortable while also being quite small and has a pleasant grip to it. A clear recommendation from a German (who drives Renaults for more than 24 years by now...) to a French: cette voiture est super cool.
Well done by Renault, please Volkswagen, consider Android Automotive and use more tactile buttons
I get mine delivered this month, this car convinced me to take the plunge on an EV ! I got the iconic trim in glacier white with gold f1 blade.
Thomas, you're nailing EV testing nowadays. I love that. Keep those thorough reviews streaming in. Loves your straight to the point reviews 🥂
I placed an order here in the UK last week. Due for delivery in December. This review has put my mind at ease. Yes I will have the smaller screen. But the rest will be identical. Was good to see the interior trim, the micro fibre and cloth on the dash board. Looks great. Excellent video as always.
Congratulations for your new car!
Does it come with a heat pump?
@@paulbrown4850 not in the Uk. No. But. I’ve read varying opinions on whether a heat pump is worth it. For myself and the distances I’ll do. Won’t make much different to me.
If I were in market for a new car my shortlist would be this or the new Niro EV
Yes, apart from the smaller screen, the missing heat pump, the missing leather, the missing Harmon Kardon sound system and the missing digital rear view mirror, it is identical.
13:53 Thomas I agree with you completely! It is mind-blowing watching car manufacturers throwing decades of understand of the man-machine-interface down the drain with these pseudo-mirrors and the touch or rather non-tactile controls. Lack of spatial awareness kills people just as high reaction times from watching a smartphone screen instead of keeping an updated view of the surroundings does.
A nice car and I like that even smaller EVs are starting to become available (though still too expensive), but I'm really tired of the whole so-called crossover concept. Why not just build stylish hatchbacks that are as efficient as possible?
I dont like the whole crossover concept either, but I assume it is just more practical and sells better. But if I had any say in the matter, I would take some iconic designs of old, not the neo-retro stuff, and electrify them. People who like/love cars will buy such electro-restomods, people who dont buy this Renault...
I think manufacturers struggle to contain batteries, suv shape allows batteries under the floor but give less compromise on the rear seating position? Also I think it allows them to charge highly for ev's during the early days of adoption? I really agree with you though this shape lacks aero efficiency and really is not my thing. Unfortunately companies seem to be doing away with hatch backs, look at Ford killing off the focus!
Hatchbacks are very much dying, their market is shrinking every year. Even VW is losing with the Golf. But with EVs there is another problem - battery. Best position for such a large structure is the floor but that eats interior space. Even something like Model 3, though looking like a normal saloon, is quite a bit taller than most and still has issues with seating position, especially in the rear. Megane might look bigger but it's rather small in person and not that tall. It has plastic arches but besides that, there is nothing crossovery about it. It's literally a normal hatchback in size simply made taller to fit the battery (~11cm battery pack I'm told)
@@kristisrb The point that the height of the battery pack is more easily hidden by the height of a crossover design seems sensible. I know the floor at the back of the Tesla Model 3 and it is not comfortable for an adult of 184 cm to sit there. I still think that you can build a car such as the Tesla Model Y only without the crossover design. Something along the lines of the short Citroën C4 Picasso II.
@@philmorbey1827 You have good points and I totally agree.
First EV I would actually consider buying actually, good job Renault
excellent review. Alot of thanks for your time!
Finally, was waiting for this review. :) Thank you Thomas!
Nice! I saw this one or one similar two months ago in the Netherlands with a french plate. It was a test vehicle, equipped with a lot of camera’s and camo wrapped completely. I couldn’t make up the model but nice to see it now fully on Autogefühl!
Hello ! Thanks for this complete video that show us all the aspects of the vehicle. It's been a long time since there was a Renault on this channel :D Have a good day !
Very nicev 😉Thanks Thomas! Always a pleasure!
Awesome interior and no stupid touch buttons. Great!
I have to say, the price - 48,000 euro - was a bit of a surprise. I assumed about 35,000.
That's with all the extras. Here in France the basic version with the big battery is about 42000, minus 6000 bonus you get when buyingan ev. So 36000. With the smaller battery it's about 31000. Still not cheap, an ID3 with the 58 kW battery was 31000 a year ago.
I enjoyed watching the Video Review. I particularly like the New Larger Infotainment System
Good job, sir. I love this guy. Soo calm and the pronunciation is spot on.
🙏 please recommend!
Ohhhh,, have I waited for this one or what,, 😬😋🥰 Cheers and thank you sooo much Thomas,, 🍻😎👍👍
most welcome :-)
22 kW AC is nice in France. There are plenty of those chargers around
Had a test drive of one of these today. I was impressed. Well sorted suspension and sharp steering, with good balance between comfort and handling, and nice build quality. The infotainment system works well and the whole car seems well thought out. I haven't tried the MG4, and that might offer better value, but I doubt it will offer the build quality. Also, the Renault can tow 900 kg, which is a useful factor for me.
Found out you are a Vegan and subbed real quick! Great content too!
quite good design all around, not crazy flashy, and great that it has android automotive, super smooth and responsive, def a car id consider over other models
Thank you for this review. I think this car is really important, because it's really light compared to similar EVs, so it's a more sustainable choice. I think it's a bad direction that many mid sized electric SUVs are really big and weigh a lot - like the Enyaq. They should focus on being small and weigh really little so they're more sustainable. If you build electric cars with a little battery pack and only one motor, then you will save some of the battery pack and the motor for another car. I think it's wrong that for instance in USA you get the same incentives when buying an electric car regardless of how sustainable the car is. For instance the two Rivian models weigh about 3.500 kg, and the Hummer EV weighs 4.103 kg which I think is insane.
Great review, where is the door closing sound? 😉
This Renault is absolutely gorgeous and so super beautiful. I will wait and save to get one in the future
Excellent video. A very complete review, congratulations. Question... now that you drove the megane etech and the skoda enyaq rs which one you prefer? (If you have to buy one). I'm deciding which one to buy cause I love the look of the enyaq but android automotive is better than the vw system. Thanks 😊
Great in-depth review, Thomas - super work...! I do like the look of this model - especially the interior design and Google screen. But... and, it's just personal preference, I know - having had a front-wheel-drive EV (Leaf) and now a rear-wheel-drive EV (i3) I just much prefer the torque of an electric motor powering the rear wheels... I found the Leaf would spin-up it's front wheels on anything other than bone-dry tarmac... The i3 gives me that push out of junctions which is more instantaneous and safer when joining a fast-moving A-road, for example...
Traction with the Megane E-Tech is rarely an issue if at all. Since the weight of the motor and accessory components rests on the front wheels wheel spin will only happen on damp or wet roads, which is something that would happen on a rear wheel drive as well. There was a comment lately that Renault Sport was involved in developing the drivetrain and after driving it I would second that notion, it shows and one can easily drive it like a hot hatch.
I love the cockpit overview
Hey Thomas, finally the car I've been waiting for! Also again, found out that in addition to some good trance, you also like anjunadeep style deep house (ben bohmer, lane 8, sultan and shepard). let's see if i find some tinlicker in the next review! ;)
Great review of the new Renault ZOE... errr... Mégane e-tech! 😅 P.S.: In case you are wondering, Renault initially planned this as a replacement for the ZOE, but later decided on doing it with the upcoming Renault R5. This is clear in the back seats and trunk space, which are more appropriated of a B segment.
Uhm, the back seats offer more room than the previous Megane. The trunk is nowhere near as small as the Zoe. Check it out in real life and you'll agree that your theory does not hold water.
Renault Megane EV looks good in maroon/black exterior colors ... Interior looks well appointed & comfortable ... Slainte' ! Cheers !
I have to say I definitely like the android automotive. I’m sure more manufacturers will adopt that in future
I recently had a test drive in a Subaru Solterra with a digital rear view mirror. The issue for me was that with varifocal glasses the mirror is out of focus when you look up to it. I do not know if there is a good solution to this for digital rear view mirrors.
This new model of Megane is much better looking than the outgoing version.
I prefer way better a Megane 4 RS Trophy than this Megane EV, although I like this Megane EV, the only EV vehicle that I could buy. The next R5 will be nice too. I think Renault has two good EV to offer here.
The back reminds me of how I perceive the i-Pace. I don't feel it matches the rest of the styling. I'm sure the speaker system is better than the BOSE though
Maybe the only electric car, that I would consider, I like the design it does not looks like a car from Mars 😂 like most ev, I like how it looks like a normal car on the inside, the infotainment looks amazing, ok there's still the price....
Any info if Renault will release also estate version? It would first really nice to size this size!
Interior seems very intuitive and well designed with the exception of the drive selector
I've heard that the 0-50kph (0-30mph) acceleration times on the 220hp version are a bit slower than comparable EVs, so you don't get the same instant acceleration from a stand still as you get with other EVs - is this true?
This Renault Megane has a well design interior like VW ID.x The PNDR position is fantastic and let a lot of space between front seats.
are the seats suitable for people with dust mite allergy?
Finally!!!!
This is a really nice looking EV! Too bad we don't get Renault in the states.
You could have the "cousin" NISSAN, same group, same plateforms.
Classic Megane with small rear window
The advantage of built-in navigation as an alternative to Google Maps or Apple Maps is that it's ALWAYS going to work. No internet required.
The rear side window of the vehicle looks like a Land Rover which is great.
I have a 2020 Leaf Tekna 64 kWh. It's quicker and has a good range. I'm puzzled why EVs don't seem to have improved much. in 2 years. The only reason I would change is if the car was the same price but did 600 kilometers range and 0-100 k in 5 seconds.
Top !
Great review of the new Renault EV. The design is interesting pleasing but why make it so short!...The high loading lip and lack of space in the rear means we won’t be changing the Kia e-Niro for one of these...the quality looks high but the price for this size of car is risible. European OEMs are going to have a shock when Chinese brands start delivering their wares.
I don't know if they are bringing this one to Australia. Cupra just launched in Australia so if I get a Euro EV that's the only option for me atm. We do get Chinese EVs in this segment, I have been wanting to get my hands on an ORA Cat (another FWD EV), there is also the BYD Dolphin and eventually I am sure the MG M4.
Yeah its coming to Australia. Renault Australia confirmed it'll com at the end of 2023. Can't wait to see them on the road here.
i tied a volvo c40. rear view camera should be mandatory on that vehicle and similar, as everyday actions here in Bristol, england "reversing from a side road into a main road past an illegally parked van" are really dangerous when you can't see a thing. nice to see that Android Automotive is getting more adoption *and* has Apple CarPlay. volvo has been promising that since 2021....
I can see shiiiii-stuff! 🤣 Well recovered, Tom! 😆
14:04 I can't see sh...tuff. Nice save haha
3 stalk on one side... My C class had 3 on the left and 1 on the right for gearbox... Merc wipers were on the "wrong" side.. Back to VW now, much more "Normal"😁
Didn't you do a video on the Megane already ? 🤔
Hey Thomas, are you going to be getting your hands on the new Honda CR-V soon? Waiting for your impressions on that.
Agree about the BSM, have a peugeot e-2008 same issue.Comes on too late. Next to useless IMO.
I’m interested in this EV. Not sure about the three steering column control stalks though.
It’s really bad design
I think with daily using you will get used to it.
It is unusual at first sight but 2 to 3 drives later you barely notice it anymore.
I tried a Megane E tech here in France. The 3 stalks are clearly not a problem. Basically you use the top one for Drive/Rear/Neutral Park, and the lower one for music. The middle one for the screens sweepers...well since there is a rain detector (which is working, not like the Tesla one), you barelly use it.
I'm very concerned that there is no Thomas Blue or Thomas Grey in this review. Is the hot weather to blame?
What was a more enjoyable driving experience? This or the Ariya?
I'd say the Ariya gives more serenity/comfort while the Megane has more spirit since its smaller size. Depends on what you prefer
This is a really nice and well thought-out car, but unfortunately too expensive compared to its competitors.
What's about Renault Austral?
Interesting review but as driving enjoyment is a big factor in the choice of my next EV I am earnestly waiting for a test drive. Just wondering whether steering feels a bit awkward with the quartic shape wheel. I also worry that the interior might look a bit gloomy with darkish upholstery and black roof lining. It is a pity that there is no panoramic roof option.
The wheel is very pleasant to handle and the used leather is very pleasant and worthy to the touch. Had the same thoughts on the dark interiour yet it turned out to give a very sleek and sport feel inside.
@@benjaminpohl3104thanks. Still wish there was an option for a panoramic roof or sunroof even though it adds weight and robs headroom.
@@richardpiper4828 Am pretty sure it has to do with the certain loss in headroom.
@@benjaminpohl3104 sun roof yes but panoramic roof as on the Tesla M3 does not eat into headroom. I think though I am very much in a minority judging by the diminishing popularity of sunroof’s since the advent of air conditioning/climate control.
@@richardpiper4828 A sunroof surely is a nice feature, yet it comes with downsides such as more noise, more heat buildup / less insulation and if it's able to open up you lose headroom as said. During reviews it showed that due to the slim sidewindows (and obviously no sunroof) the Megane e-tech did very well with climatizing the interior since the air conditioning has not that much to work against.
‘Who designed this, and why” lightened my day, thanks.
Beautiful car, I like it
NICE CAR
Excellent car. Renault is back !
I appreciate a smaller, lighter car. The exterior styling doesn’t win me over yet on first impressions.
Meine Meinung was den Totwinkelasistenten angeht, es ist doch besser das er blinkt erst wen ein Auto sich im toten Winckel befindet. Wen er deutlich früher warnt, dan weis ich nicht ob sich doch nicht ein anderes auto in den toten Winckel geschlichen hat was ich aus irgend einer Grund nicht bemerkt habe. Aber das ist nur meine Meinung 🙂
Android Automotive looks good. Just use it in lots of cars.
Thomas , I'm not sure if the cars are looking more attractive or it's yourself .. You do make everything look superb , I have to say 👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏💕💕💕💕 Extremley Handsome Thomas
@Autogefühl Thomas at 14:07 wanted to say shit but he realised and continued by saying stuff 🤣
Now give us a midsize version with AWD and 350 miles of real-world range, and Renault will wipe the floor with the market.
It’s Called the Ariya
@@Wasssup3232 different design and infotainment system, as well as not hitting 350 miles of real-world range.
@@MaxStraesser no car hits 350 miles of real world range except the lucid and the EQ lineup of sedans.
@@Wasssup3232 True, but at 390 miles of WLTP range the Fisker Ocean will come close. Granted, that‘s with a 100kWh battery and a corresponding weight penalty, but I‘d wager it‘s definitely doable for a midsize car with decent aerodynamic design.
@@MaxStraesser eventually maybe, but in Teslabjorn and Autogefühls videos they got some great efficiency on the 40KM drive they did and both had a chance to drive at 110/120kph for a little and still had good efficiency. While it isn't 350 bang on it's still good for higher speeds from what we have seen
14:05 “I can’t see sh** … stuff!” 😅
Why such an abrupt ending in your recent videos?
Will wait for the RS Trophy lol 🏆
Don't understand why they choose to use hard plastic at front doors... They started with rear doors and it was ok but why they keep going? You made a posh looking EV with an existing name, and you created a good looking interior design so if you want to increase your market share then you should be generous in terms of material quality... Strange thing is in some trim levels with the clio V they pushed the B segment limits but with the megane they are not... Strange...
Does the ID3 offer more rear room?
I find it good that you use the term "animal skin" instead of "leather"...
Yes, let people know what they're sitting on and that somebody innocent died to become your car seat.
highly appreciated !
"I can't see shhh.. Stuff" 😏 😂
Is that the French rooster 🐓 above the left speaker 🔊?
Great
The smart #1 should be another worthy competitor in this segment. Any news yet on if/when there’s a chance for a review?
This car is smoking hot !
Can we stop saying it's small? It's not it's mid-size. A Zoe is small, an E-Up is small, a Fiat 500 is small. This is mid-size, everyone got that? ;)
The Megane is only 10 cm longer as the Zoe, so it is small. 😉
did that speedometer just jump 10km/h at a time lmao
So 40 Kwh model is usless if 60 Kwh model range is in "good" conditions 400 km! Wonder how will batterie hold on minus 10 in winter....Guess I will be waiting for my EV another 10 yrs...
Good
