Renault has released new teaser images of the Mégane E-Tech Electric, the firm’s first dedicated electric SUV, which is set to go on sale next year.
The French manufacturer revealed the boldly styled machine in concept form last year, with company boss Luca de Meo promising it was “95% what the production car will look like”. The concept was called the Mégane eVision, but a new release from Renault shows that it will take the E-Tech Electric name, using the sub-brand that encompasses all of the firm's electrified cars.
The three teaser images include a close-up shot of the car's rear, showcasing Renault's new retro-styled logo. The other two interior shots focus on showing the large, vertically mounted central touchscreen, along with the digital information display.
The production styling of the Mégane E-Tech Electric – which is unrelated to the existing Mégane saloon and estate – was previously seen in spy shots of the Volkswagen ID 4 rival testing on public roads. Although the machine is wrapped in a camouflage livery, the narrow front headlights can be seen, and the machine also sits on large wheels. The cover of the electric charging port is also visible on the passenger-side A-pillar.
The side profile shows the crossover styling of the car, which de Meo said at the launch is intended to “reinvent the classical hatchback in an emotional way”.

@andrew1 I haven't been in many, no, but never seen any mention a rev counter before. Looking at the picture closely, it also has a water temp underneath it, which makes me wonder if this car will be offered in hybrid as well as electric, or if it is the wrong image for some reason. Interestingly the same picture is used on Car Mag but it has a very different dial for charging vs power
As for the teasers ye they are not revealing much and as much as it will be sad not to see the ICE Megane replaced with a new ICE Megane at least there is a new Megsne coming and time moved on.
