The single-seat Twizy Cargo does have a boot, however the rules for ‘commercial-vehicle’ quadricycles allow for a larger carrying capacity – but no passenger.
Why is Renault Twizy so expensive?
It’ll be cheaper, too – a Twizy is much more expensive than it used to be, starting from almost £11,000. This is due to Renault now including the battery cost in the price.
How much does a Twizy cost?
Renault announces dirt cheap price for all-electric Twizy, just $9,700* U.S. It’s not like Renault is really fighting anyone for the ultra-quirky, two-seat urban electric vehicle market, but if anyone wants to undercut the Twizy on price, it’ll be tough.
Can I drive a Twizy without a Licence?
The first version of Twizy is accessible from 16 years and over to holders of a moped license, while the second category of Twizy requires a category B driving license.
Does the Renault Twizy have 2 seats?
The Renault Twizy is a two-seat microcar designed and marketed by Renault. It is classified in Europe as either a light or heavy quadricycle depending on the output power, which is either 4 kW (5.4 hp) for the 45 model or 13 kW (17 hp) for the 80 model, both names reflecting its top speed in km/h.
Does a Twizy have doors?
The Twizy doesn’t really have an inside. Even with the optional doors fitted – which open in a supercar-esque scissor fashion – you’re far more exposed to the elements than in a normal car with all the windows open.
Can Renault Twizy go on motorways?
We wouldn’t advise venturing onto the motorway, even though some Twizy owners do. Altogether less impressive is the ride; it’s far too firm at any speed, and particularly painful over urban potholes and speed bumps. For reference, the Twizy is less comfortable than any normal road car you’ll ever have driven.
How far can a Twizy go on one charge?
The battery in the Twizy is small, but it provides enough juice for a real-world range of 40-50 miles on a charge.
Can you drive a Twizy at 16?
If you’re after more of a big-name brand, Renault has actually produced a quadricycle that can be driven at 16 – the all-electric Twizy. While the main version of the car does not qualify – it is too fast and too heavy to comply – there was a Twizy 45 that was designed specifically for 16 year old drivers.
Can you take a Renault Twizy on the motorway?
Fast A-roads aren’t as scary as you’d expect them to be in our Twizy. So imagine my surprise when Renault assured me that it was legal to take the Twizy on any road we liked – motorways included – despite its 50mph top speed.
What’s the difference between the Renault Twizy and the cargo?
But that hasn’t stopped Renault from expanding the Twizy range to include a fully-fledged commercial version, the Twizy Cargo. While the Cargo is mechanically identical to the standard model, it has half the number of seats.
What is the range of the Twizy Cargo?
That gives you a claimed range of 62 miles, although if you give yourself a workable range of 40 miles between charges, that should be reasonable. As there’s no heater or any other electronics, then the battery range should remain pretty consistent. The battery itself is leased on top of the £8,000 price of the Twizy Cargo itself.
How much does it cost to lease a Twizy Cargo battery?
As there’s no heater or any other electronics, then the battery range should remain pretty consistent. The battery itself is leased on top of the £8,000 price of the Twizy Cargo itself. This can range from £45-£67 a month, depending on the deal you negotiate.
