Twizy Zero Emissions Concept
| Power | 15 kW | Torque | 70 Nm |
| Range | 62 miles | Speed | 45 mph |
| Charge Time | 3.5 hrs | Weight | 0.42 tonne |
The Twizy is the smallest and the most innovative of Renault’s electric car range. In fact, to call it a car is to miss the point… it’s more a four-wheeled motorbike.
Designed to compete with a 125cc motorbike, the car is one seat wide with the passenger sitting directly behind the driver.
It’s aimed at a single person who has up to 30 miles to travel to work every day and features a battery which can be fully recharged in 3.5 hours from any 220V mains outlet.
In fact it reinvents the idea of a car, and once you’ve got your head around the idea, you can start to appreciate all the Renault Twizy has to offer.
For the single person, going to work or going shopping, it’s ideal. And every family, perhaps, will end up with one in their garage for low-emission personal journeys or shopping trips.
Thierry Koskas, Director of Electric Vehicles, said “The Twizy will enable individuals to move around in the most environmentally responsible way possible: this could be an individual’s mode of transport for the future”.
The Renault Twizy ZE will be available to buy in 2011.

I’m so excited about the launch of electric cars – I can’t wait for the day that our streets are filled with sustainable cars. I think it is great that more political figures are getting involved and making legislation to promote electric vehicles. Just today I found out that that the Governor of Delaware recently signed a law that provides incentives for Delawareans who take advantage of emerging vehicle-to-grid technology. There is an article about it on the News Journal’s website, check it out http://www.delawareonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2009909220317

Thanks for the input Meghan!
Electric power has been around for some time now and is obviously coming of age. What is missing is the infrastructure to support it.
This initiative by Delaware is definitely a step in the right direction!
