“Renault’s Mégane hatchback is reborn as a pure electric family car, with two battery options and a choice of three trim levels. Decent range and slick onboard tech make it easy to live with and it’s a convincing alternative to the likes of the VW ID.3 (and its various relatives) while drawing on Renault’s extensive electric expertise.” (Erin Baker)

“Although it offers decent relative value, the Renault Mégane E-Tech isn’t our preferred electric hatchback. A year ago, it might have been, because it’s stylish, decently practical for its size, has a good infotainment system and is quite comfortable. But so are its rivals, and those also have more distinguishing handling and, crucially, go usefully further on a charge.” (Ilya Verpraet)

“The Renault Megane E-Tech looks great inside and out, drives well and in Techno spec is well-equipped. However, we worry about its winter range, the quality of some interior finishes and the depreciation. The MG4 largely does the same job as the Renault but is significantly cheaper and as such, worthy of equally similar consideration.”

“The Renault Megane E-Tech is a very solid EV choice. However, it’s not flawless by any means – and as a budget alternative, the MG4 will likely merit strong fleet consideration.” (Sean Keywood)

“The Renault Megane E-Tech Electric is a great electric hatchback. It’s comfortable, spacious, well-equipped and fun to drive – but a hot hatchback to replace the old Megane RS it is not. Here’s hoping Renault ups the ante soon with a proper Renault Sport version.”

“The Renault Megane E-Tech Electric represents a step forward for Renault, particularly next to its current EVs like the Zoe. It’s especially stylish, while the cabin is a big leap forward in terms of tech and quality. The choice of powertrains will mean there will be something to suit most. Its only real weakness is its practicality.”

“The all-new Renault Megane E-Tech Electric pays homage to the Megane’s heritage through its design and versatility but with all the benefits of an electric car, as well as new features, and the unprecedented size-to-space ratio. If you’re looking for a family EV then the Megane should definitely be on your shortlist!”

“Renault’s second-generation electric range kicks off with the Megane E-Tech, an impressive five-door family hatch. It’s a great package and very efficient, but looks pricey compared to some rivals.”

“The Renault Megane E-Tech offers good performance, a comfortable ride and handling agility, with the latest in-car technology and decent levels of interior space within a compact footprint on the road. However, having to wait seven seconds between starting the car and being able to select a gear isn’t ideal, and our real-world range was disappointing, even allowing for the cold November weather.” (Paul Clarke)

“The Renault Megane E-Tech is a very well-rounded electric family car. It doesn’t look or feel too weird, while it’s more spacious than petrol alternatives. We rate the Google infotainment system while its 280-mile range should be enough for the most reluctant of electric car buyers.”

“Usability is the Renault Megane E-Tech’s key selling point. Aside from its electric powertrain, everything else feels familiar, giving Renault’s new EV particular appeal for those buying their first electric car.” (John Redfern)

“Not only does the Renault Megane E-Tech look great inside and out, but it’s fun to drive, practical and, in 60kWh guise, unlikely to bring on an attack of range anxiety. It looks like the Volkswagen ID.3 has some sleepless nights ahead of it.” (James Disdale)

“The new Renault Megane isn’t the electric hot hatchback we were hoping for, but that’s not such a bad thing. It’s a practical electric family car with a reasonable range, great acceleration and a platform that’s just entertaining enough to make you smile on the right road.”

“Buyers have had to wait a while for Renault to expand its EV offering, but the Mégane E-Tech Electric seems to have been worth the wait. It’s a superb electric car: refined, comfortable to drive and, crucially, seems to walk the walk when it comes to real world driving range.”

“Even with the perfect specification, the Renault Megane E-Tech has a battery range that is, in cold conditions at least, decidedly sub-par. And that makes it difficult to award more than three stars. Which is a shame, because such a score belies the delightful way it drives, the beautifully put-together interior, the sizeable boot and the usability of its controls.” (Alex Robbins)

“I preferred it to the VW ID.3 and certainly to the Skoda Enyaq. It felt more planted, more responsive and more of a driver’s car without the weirdness which the VW Group (and others) seem hell bent on introducing to their cars.”

“As a small electric car that’s comfortable and offers fantastic cruising manners, the Megane E-Tech is well worth considering. Range is competitive, but relatively high price and disappointingly heavy depreciation hold it back being a class leader.”

“The Megane E-Tech puts Renault back on the electric map. While the range is decent but not outstanding, as is interior passenger and cargo space, there is a certain “va va voom” about the design. It looks good, driving is enjoyable, and there’s a general sense of quality. So although it’s not particularly cheap, you get a solid build and equipment level for the money, with particularly good AC charging capabilities.”
