How does the Renault Clio full hybrid E-Tech hybrid system work?

The Renault Clio full hybrid E-Tech 145 hp combines a petrol engine, an electric motor, and a battery that charges automatically while driving. The system prioritises electric power whenever conditions allow and engages the internal combustion engine when the trip requires more power or driving range.

Urban and suburban electric driving occurs more frequently due to periods of deceleration, stopping and restarting. This technology is designed to optimise efficiency during urban journeys with frequent stops and starts.

The battery does not need to be plugged in. It recovers energy during deceleration and braking through regenerative braking. The e-save mode also helps maintain a reserve of battery charge for later use.

The Clio full hybrid E-Tech 145 hp lets you enjoy electric driving in your daily life, without having to plug it in to charge.
