\nWLTP approved autonomy: 190 km
\nWLTP approved consumption: 11.2 kWh\/100 km
\nVehicle weight: 1208 kg[\/vc_message][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In this new autonomy challenge of #CircutorElectroChallenge we drive a cutie, a Renault Twingo e-Tech Electric, up to the limit of its autonomy, using, as always, our best Efficient and calm Driving skills.<\/p>\n
The Twingo is the youngest of the French brand, with the permission of the Twitzy, rather considered a quad than a tourism. At 3.6 meters long, it can boast an advantage over the rest of the market, it is the car with the smallest turning radius, only 4.3 meters, which makes it ideal for daily slalom in many of our towns.<\/p>\n
With only 4 legalized seats, the Twingo gathers the experience of the Zoe and is equipped, only with alternating current charging with a maximum of 22 kW that allows it to fully recover its battery in just over an hour or 3 hours. if we charge it at 7.4 kW of power in the garage at home with a single-phase eHome.[\/vc_column_text][vc_message message_box_color=”grey” icon_fontawesome=”fas fa-car” css=”.vc_custom_1675242399333{margin-top: 40px !important;margin-bottom: 40px !important;}”]These are the consumer results obtained in the initial tests:<\/p>\n
Charity lap: 12.7 kWh\/100 km
\nEcoBest lap: 10.8 kWh\/100 km[\/vc_message][vc_single_image image=”28578″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_rounded”][vc_column_text]Definitely, it shows that its small 60 kW engine does not achieve high levels of regeneration and, therefore, in terms of consumption, urban circulation in territories without much unevenness is better than mountain roads.<\/p>\n
In the same way that we did with the Spring, we dared to walk this little one through one of the most panoramic areas of our surroundings and also, we did not do it alone but Jordi and N\u00faria accompanied us with their cute Mii, a duel of children.<\/p>\n
It is 10:00 in the morning and we already have both cars loaded, at the CIRCUTOR headquarters in Viladecavalls, we unplugged from the Urban22 and began our adventure. Llobregat down to the beaches of Castelldefels to enjoy the sun and the sea through the views of the El Garraf coast.<\/p>\n
An hour later, CARNIVAL! We are already in Sitges and people with their costumes are going to the parade.<\/p>\n
The Twingo e-Tech has covered these 70 km with 30% of the battery, therefore, with a consumption of 9.4 kWh\/100 km and a remaining range of 148 km.<\/p>\n
The Mii, for its part, still shows a range of 277 km, thanks to its consumption of 8 kWh\/100 km and maintaining 75% energy on a useful 32.3 kWh battery capacity.<\/p>\n
Our carnival route obviously takes us to Vilanova i la Geltr\u00fa and, from there, through a narrow winding road to the Foix reservoir, an incredible landscape both wild and close to the great metropolitan area at the same time.<\/p>\n
It is noon and our route reaches 122 km from the start, the little ones in the garage are doing very well and we are still going with half a battery in the Twingo e-Tech and 70% in the Seat Mii that seems to have decided not to spend anything .<\/p>\n
After the photographic control in Castellet, we head towards the Pened\u00e8s, a land of cava and countryside landscapes, which we enjoyed very much.<\/p>\n
At the Sant Sadurni d’Anoia checkpoint, the little Twingo e-Tech has begun to feel the effect of some climbs but still, at 38% state of charge, it promises us 82 more km. At the same point, the Seat Mii is still above 50% and announces 177 km of autonomy.<\/p>\n
We have the most difficult part of our journey ahead of us, going up to Gelida, going down to Martorell and why not, extending the route a little more skirting the foot of the mythical mountain of Montserrat.<\/p>\n
It is 2 in the afternoon and we enter the Circutor site again, the start of the route, we have covered 184 km with these little prodigies. The Twingo e-Tech is already as hungry as we are, its reserve is at 8% and the three-phase Urban in our parking lot is looking forward to it. The Seat Mii, even with a 40% battery and 131 km of autonomy, still wants to go, thanks to a consumption of only 8.8 kWh\/100 km. but it is time to say goodbye and until the next adventure N\u00faria and Jordi, we have had a great time with you.<\/p>\n
We do not plug in the Renault Twingo, we are going to eat in Terrassa, there is still room, ….. or not?<\/p>\n
Finally we finished our adventure with the little Renault, after doing 199 km and seeing our esteemed Tortugueta in its dashboard in the last 3 km.<\/p>\n
