Overview
Meet the 2025 Renault Kangoo E-Tech Grand Electric, a super practical all-electric minivan that’s all about space and zero-emission cruising, especially in this extended "Grand" version offering 5 or 7 seats. While it's a star in Europe, it's not officially sold in the US, so no official US pricing is available. Think of it as Europe's answer to a compact, electric people-and-cargo mover. Its key highlights are its impressive cargo flexibility and that smooth, silent electric drive perfect for city life and family adventures.
What's New for 2025?
The Kangoo E-Tech Grand Electric, having just launched production in 2024, rolls into 2025 as the fresh face of Renault's electric van lineup. This isn't just a mild refresh; it's the latest generation, packing a new 45 kWh battery for improved range and updated tech. For a hypothetical US audience, this 2025 model represents the newest iteration of Renault's electric van expertise, designed to be more efficient and versatile than ever before, making it a potentially nifty option for families or businesses looking for electric practicality.
Design & Exterior
The Kangoo E-Tech Grand Electric boasts a modern, friendly van aesthetic that’s both smart and functional. It's got a purposeful stance, with clean lines and Renault’s signature C-shaped LED daytime running lights likely making an appearance. The "Grand" in its name hints at its generous proportions: it stretches 193.3 inches long, stands 71.5 inches tall, and measures 73.2 inches wide (excluding mirrors), all riding on a lengthy 122-inch wheelbase. This design maximizes interior space while keeping it city-friendly.
Interior, Tech & Cargo
Step inside the Grand Electric and you'll find a cabin built for durability and everyday usability, with seating for five or even seven passengers. While not luxurious, it’s thoughtfully laid out. Expect Renault’s Easy Link infotainment system, likely with an 8-inch touchscreen, plus Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Cargo is where it shines: you get a decent 17.7 cubic feet in the trunk, expanding to a massive 107.7 cubic feet with seats folded. Unfortunately, there's no frunk for extra bits and bobs.
Performance & Driving Experience
Under the hood (well, floor mostly!), the Kangoo E-Tech Grand Electric sports a single Externally Excited Synchronous Motor (EESM) driving the front wheels. It delivers 90 kW (around 121 hp) and a handy 181 lb-ft of torque. This translates to a 0-60 mph sprint in a leisurely 12.8 seconds and a top speed of 84 mph – zippy enough for city duties and merging. Expect a comfortable, quiet ride tailored for urban environments, with regenerative braking modes to help eke out more range.
Range, Battery & Charging
The Grand Electric is powered by a 45 kWh (usable) battery pack, offering a Green Cars Compare estimated real-world range of 140 miles, with an efficiency of 3.11 mi/kWh. For charging, its standard 22 kW AC onboard charger is a real perk, potentially refilling the battery in around 2-3 hours. DC fast charging maxes out at 80 kW, which should get you from 10-80% in about 30 minutes. Its European CCS Type 2 port would likely be swapped for CCS Type 1 or NACS for US shores.
Safety & Driver-Assistance Features
While it hasn't been tested by the NHTSA (as it's not sold stateside), the Renault Kangoo E-Tech achieved a 4-star rating from Euro NCAP, which is respectable. You can expect a suite of modern driver aids, typically including Active Emergency Braking, Lane Keeping Assist, and Blind Spot Warning. Adaptive cruise control and traffic sign recognition would likely be available too, ensuring a good level of active safety for peace of mind on those family or delivery runs.
Warranty & Maintenance Coverage
If the Kangoo E-Tech Grand Electric were sold in the US, it would likely mirror Renault's European EV warranties, potentially offering a basic vehicle warranty of around 3 years/36,000 miles or perhaps up to 5 years/60,000 miles. The crucial battery warranty would probably be competitive at 8 years/100,000 miles, guaranteeing around 70% capacity. Maintenance should be minimal, as is typical for EVs, focusing mainly on tires, brakes, and cabin filters, making for potentially low running costs.
