The new Renault Trafic E-Tech 100% electric van is now available to order, with prices starting at £34,500 plus VAT after applying the £5,000 Plug-in Van Grant (PiVG). Deliveries are set to begin in September.
This zero-emissions van comes in three versions, including a high-roof model unique to the UK market. It expands Renault’s Pro+ range of electric light commercial vehicles (LCVs), joining the Kangoo E-Tech 100% electric and the new Master E-Tech 100% electric, providing electric options for businesses of all sizes.
The Trafic E-Tech offers two body lengths (5.08m and 5.48m) and two heights (1.967m and 2.498m), with a load space ranging from 5.8m³ to 8.9m³. The long wheelbase version can carry loads up to 4.15m in length thanks to a load-through facility, while its towing capacity is up to 920kg and the maximum payload is 1,222kg.
The practical design extends to the cabin, offering 88 litres of storage space, including 19.7 litres in the console, 14.6 litres in the doors, and 54 litres in the bench. The Trafic was the first LCV to feature a “mobile office,” a now essential tool for tradespeople on the go.
Equipped with a 52kWh lithium-ion battery, the Trafic E-Tech can travel up to 186 miles (WLTP) on a single charge. It supports rapid DC charging up to 50kW, which can fully recharge the battery in just one hour.
Standard features include an 8-inch touchscreen Easy Link display, wireless smartphone integration with Android Auto™ and Apple CarPlay®, full LED headlights with C-shaped DRLs, heated electrically-adjustable door mirrors, rear parking sensors, cruise control with speed limiter, intelligent speed assist, active emergency braking system, tyre pressure warning, lane departure warning, driver attention alert, and drowsiness warning.
The interior also boasts a premium dashboard with horizontal grain and chrome styling, a 7-inch colour TFT driver information display, a height-adjustable driver’s seat with lumbar adjustment and armrest, electric front windows with one-touch opening on the driver’s side, air conditioning with pollen filter, and the Mobile Office with a folding middle passenger seat.
