Renault has unveiled a new variant of its 4 E-Tech model, named the Jogging, with a launch scheduled for later this year. The new version will be fitted with a 110 horsepower electric motor and offer a range of up to 305 kilometres under the WLTP homologation cycle.
The motor belongs to the same family as the unit powering the Twingo E-Tech and is paired with a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery featuring cell-to-pack technology and a usable capacity of 36.5 kWh. The vehicle will accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.2 seconds.
On charging, Renault states that the battery can go from 15% to 80% in approximately 23 minutes using direct current (DC), provided optimal conditions are met. On alternating current (AC), the same charge level is expected to take around three hours and 20 minutes. The vehicle comes standard with a 6.6 kW AC onboard charger, an 80 kW DC fast charger, and a battery pre-conditioning system.
Inside, the Renault 4 E-Tech Jogging features a 7-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.1-inch central touchscreen integrated into the OpenR multimedia system. The cabin also includes smartphone connectivity via Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, as well as manual air conditioning.
Additional equipment includes rear parking sensors, a reversing camera, and rear seats that fold in a 60/40 split configuration. The model rides on 18-inch wheels fitted with steel hub caps.
While pricing for the new Jogging variant has not yet been announced, the current entry-level Renault 4 E-Tech — the Evolution — is available from 33,440 euros, providing a benchmark for the range. The arrival of the Jogging trim is expected to broaden Renault's electric offering in the B-SUV segment, positioned as a more accessible option within the lineup.
