Summary

The Renault 4 E-Tech 40kWh 120hp is a 5-seat SUV with front-wheel drive, not sold in the UK, but on sale from €29,400 in Germany and €29,990 in the Netherlands. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 9.2 seconds, slower than 86% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 152 miles (245 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That puts it among the shortest-range 10% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 238th of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 3.8 mi/kWh (163 Wh/km), more efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 40 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 55 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 157 miles (253 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses NCM chemistry, which stores more energy for its weight than LFP.

Second-hand in Germany, a 2025 example is estimated at €16,800–€19,100, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2025 car should still manage about 149 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
