Battery versions of the Renault Twingo E-Tech

A model sold over several years does not have the same battery from start to finish, and two versions are often sold side by side. Identify yours: capacity and chemistry change the range, the expected degradation and the cost of a replacement.

The expected state of health of a Renault Twingo E-Tech battery

Three model years of this car, at the average French annual mileage of 9,321 miles, each with its chemistry. These ranges describe where a comparable battery usually sits, not yours: use, climate and charging habits spread the fleet widely.

  • 2020 model year81 to 90%6 years, 55,923 miles, chemistry not recorded
  • 2022 model year86 to 94%4 years, 37,282 miles, chemistry not recorded
  • 2024 model year91 to 97%2 years, 18,641 miles, chemistry not recorded

For a figure rather than a range, you need a measurement on the car. What state of health means and how it is measured.

What the energy costs per 100 miles

Charged at home, a Renault Twingo E-Tech uses between £6.78 and £8.47 of electricity per 100 miles.

By comparison, a recent petrol car averages 38.7 mpg (7.3 L/100 km) in real-world use: about £20.30 of fuel per 100 miles, at the average price of unleaded petrol (£1.728 per litre on 2 November 2026).

Bottom of the range: the WLTP official consumption, 3.9 miles/kWh. Top: 25% more, the measured gap between official figures and real-world use. Electricity at £0.2632 per kWh, the Ofgem price cap.

Charging at a public charge point: prices vary too much from one operator to another to be given here.

Charging at home: a night on a plug

Plugged in for 8 hours on a 3-pin plug, a Renault Twingo E-Tech adds between 55 and 70 miles; on a 16 A commando socket, between 90 and 115 miles, depending on the version and how it is driven.

The Renault Twingo E-Tech battery

Sold from 2020 to 2024, with a pack of about 22 kWh.

The Renault Twingo E-Tech pack can be repaired module by module. When only one module is at fault, the repair costs far less than a new pack.

Which battery does the electric Twingo have?

The electric Renault Twingo, launched as the Twingo Electric and later called Twingo E-Tech, had a single battery from 2020 to 2024: a 22 kWh pack (21.3 kWh usable) with LG cells and nickel (NMC) chemistry. There is no small and large battery as on the Zoe or the R5: the model year does not change the capacity, and there is no version to ask about.

The battery was never offered on lease, unlike the Zoe’s: it always belongs to the car. In France, Renault warrants it for 8 years or 160,000 km (about 100,000 miles), and has shown its state of health in My Renault since 2021: ask for the battery certificate before buying.

The new Twingo E-Tech of 2026, with an LFP battery, is a different car: this page does not cover it.

Faults reported by garages in France

  • Range very sensitive to cold, often mistaken for a fault.
  • Charging faults caused by the on-board charger rather than the pack.
