AutoExec Summary
Aussies are eager to own the new Renault Megane e-Tech electric hatchback, with thousands expressing interest ahead of its late 2023 arrival. Priced in the mid-to-low $70,000s, it competes with the Tesla Model Y and Hyundai Ioniq 5. With a 160kW/300Nm motor and 60kWh battery, it offers 450km of WLTP range. Renault Australia anticipates high global demand, potentially selling more than 100 per month. CO2 emissions regulations could divert more supply to Australia, and Renault will also launch the Kangoo e-Tech in 2023. The reborn Renault 5 is also on the wishlist for Australia.
