I’m delighted to welcome you at our new Renault flagship ludeno. Renault has been on the shel since 1910. This new flagship carries that legacy forward, staying close to people in the art of the city. I’m pleased to welcome you in this iconic location for a very special car. In 1989, Eve Dub took charge of the first twingo program. His mandate was clear. Prove the business case by cutting production timeline by 6 months, the estimated price by 20% and define a bold original design for what people call the car that did not exist. It seemed it was impossible yet Renault teams delivered. 35 years later we face new changes and we have to repeat that success. Yes, 35 years on we had to walk in the footstep of the first Twingo pioneers and as you will see the resemblance does not stop at design. We kept the same rule, no rules and we made it happen thanks to the dedication of the team led by Victoriao Darenzo as program director and Philip Brun as umpair R&D chief. First we had to do faster than ever. We did it thanks to our China Development Center ACDC. Our aim is clear. Learn from the best, match new standards set by Chinese OEMs. With this new Twingo, we have understood best-in-class standards and achieve something rare. We brought it to market in under two years. The fastest Renault ever made. I don’t think any other European car maker would have been able to do that. Like the first Ringo, we had to cut development costs by 20% to stay true to what customers expect. A city car that is both affordable and practical. With a starting price below 20,000 euro, we are delivering on our promise to make electric mobility accessible to as many people as possible. Faster, cheaper, and we did it without turning our back on Europe. This car will be built at our Slovenian Novometo plant. The plant won’t build Twingo alone. It will alo produce other family models. Two new M segment models, one for DIA and one for our partner Nissan. In short, the new Twingo managed to be compact, affordable, made in Europe, and brought to market in record time. 35 years later, we made the impossible possible again. But affordability does not mean compromise. We still wanted to put the best of innovation directly into our customers cars. Thiso managed to pair simplicity with state-of-the-art technology. Its LFP cell battery is a world first. A win-win choice. More range for drivers. lower production cost for us. Twingo is also best-in-class for energy efficiency. Its life cycle carbon footprint is about 60% lower than an A segment ICE car. To put technology as a service of the customer experience, we also decided to bring our acclaimed features to Twingo. And here again, it is world first. This car brings Google built in in the air segment. We say Tringo cannot print with techno. This car shows our group’s obsession. Product product and product. Since the revolution, we made a bold strategic choice. Develop emotional products and focus on value over volume. And it is paying off. Our lineup is attractive. Senic, Zen, Reno 5, Alpin A290 have taken backtoback car of the year awards. And we just learned that Reno 4 and Dashia have made the short list for car of the year 2026. Our lineup is acclaimed by customer with for example the air5 leading EV sales in France. Our lineup is also the youngest and most dynamic in decades. Since the revolution, we have launched more than 20 models and our product offensive is far from over. At the IA in Munich, we presented the new Cleo and today we proudly unveiled the 2026 all electric Twingo. With the first wingo, Renault redefineses the city car. A clever cabin, mini MPV silhouette, compact, affordable. Each represented Renault Vuriv. Its tagline said it all. Invent the life that goes with it. Three decades later, over four million customers in 25 countries have made Twingo part of their daily lives. Its unique design is now part of our identity, an emblem of who we are. Today, we welcome back our accessible icon, modernized, electrified, refreshed, yet still very Twingo. I will now hand over to Fabric and his team to take you through the new Twingo. Fis, the stage is yours. [Applause] [Music] Well, very happy to be here. I’m very happy to welcome you to the deilono and to reveal the new twingo. Of course, we needed a very special stage because this is not just another car. The new Twingo embodies a real exception in Europe. The new Twingo ticks five boxes that are hard to combine in a compact electric car. First, it’s assembled in Europe. Second, it delivers strong customer value and modernity. Third, the car is developed in under two years thanks to new ways of working between French engineering teams and our development center in China. And fourth, its carbon footprint has been reduced by 60% versus a similar IC model. And finally, it will cost under €20,000. This is how we are making our comeback in the A segment. And as you know, the A segment is a tricky one. It represents a challenge for most OEMs who all face the same problem. How to offer a car that is competitive, attractive, and profitable at the same time. But the A segment is essential to make electric mobility accessible for everyone and meet therefore a growing European demand that remains largely untapped. For Renault, the challenge was close to home because of course Twingo created this segment in 1993. And we wanted to keep everything that defines Renault’s Guavir DNA. Emotion, practicality, driving pleasure, and progressive tech. New Tuingo 100% electric is at the same time a tribute to its origins and a leap into the future. And let me tell you why. First, an iconic design, instantly recognizable and incredibly modern. With its joyful style, we are proving that electric cars are also about emotion. Next, Twingo delivers a new generation of VUR. Made to meet the needs of European customers. Compact yet incredibly spacious, highly modular and ultra practical thanks to all its smart storage features and its two independent sliding rear seats. And Tuingo is also very fun to drive. You get the R5 feeling behind the wheel. The car is designed to put a smile on your face. At just 3.79 m, it’s agile and slips through narrow streets, highways, traffic jams, and parks everywhere. It also offers the very best technology. On the connectivity side, it features open air link with Google, a favorite among our customers. With the one pedal driving and its new LFP battery, it delivers the best of electric tech. We’ve perfectly sized also the LFP battery for real life usage, offering up to 263 kilometer of range. And on top of that, it comes with a birectional charger. Customers will be able to invent the life that goes with the vehicle to load function, powering any device they choose. So many features and each of them a first in the A segment. Twingo is a compact vehicle packed with customer value priced under 20,000 making it a true industrial and cultural exception in Europe. It represents an industry that can reinvent itself without forgetting its roots. An industry that stays firmly European but also open to the world. an industry that innovates while staying close to the people it serves. Ladies and gentlemen, I’m proud to introduce the new Twingo E Tech Electric. Thank you very much. [Applause] [Music] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] [Applause] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] Hello everybody. Let me take you inside the world of Twingo E Techch electric. A city car that it’s all about personality, playfulness, and smart design. At first glance, the exterior design speaks of happiness. Newingo is a breath of fresh air, a bubble of positive energy and optimism. Every line, every curve, the totally rounded design sparks emotion and will will make the city smile. The front face immediately sets the tone. Rounded full lit headlamps give new twingo a friendly expressive eyes and with the black deco part twingo gives you a subtle smile. a direct knot with the Twingo first generation because Twingo has a character of its own. Extremely touching, endearing, and ready to become your urban companion, your mascot. The bumper lines are smooth but assertive, balancing softness with a confident urban attitude. The lower the lower grill with the graduate oblong pattern is faithful with a natural twingo language. From the side, Twingo’s compact proportions create a powerful confident stance. The small MPV silhouette with no compromise is refined with three standout features. First, enormously optimized dimensions for the A segment with a 3.79 m length and amazingly sized 18 inch wheels. Second, oblong design windows with hidden waist seals, remarkable for this segment. And third, a rear windows that extends from the body avoiding the station wagon effect and improving the aerodynamic performance. At the rear, soft, playful shapes meet modernized nostalgia with a signature twingo logo using our unique twingo alphabet. And colors is another crucial part of the personality. Red, green, yellow, black. Each hue is an invitation to good humor. And because urban life demands practicality, five doors offer more fun and freedom, easy access of board without sacrifying any twingo charm. But let’s go inside. The interior of new twingo is reinvented. Yes, inspired by original twingo, but with a touch of modernity and always extra fun. The outside slides inside with all the vivant colors and playful shapes. The suspended cylindrical dashboard creates a sense of openness while blending aesthetic freshness with easy use. The screens 7 in digital cluster and 10.1 in central display are not just functional. They bring life to the cabin with joyful graphics and animations turning every day, every interaction in a moment of delight. Despite the compact exterior, the cabin feels surprisingly spacious and flexible thanks to the seats that this light unfold independently. a key part of the Twingo’s DNA that we preserved, giving you even more freedom. Every element tells a story, invites curiosity, and surprises you. Like the candy warning light button, or the alphabet roof or the bug holder, every detail makes daily interactions intuitive and always extra fun. So to sum up, new Chuingo Eek electric is unique, more than just another car. It is a statement of joy, creativity, and purpose. Every detail has been crafted to bring emotion and intelligence together, proving that URA mobility can be beautiful, fun, and human centric. So compact in form yet expansive in experience, the soul of Tuingo is captured. Playful, endearing, and full of personality. Tuingo is ready to become the new reference for the small city cars. Thank you very much. See you later. And please, Victoria, come to the stage. [Music] Welcome everybody. I’m so happy to have you here after less than two years of development. It was a blink in fact. Now please join me in a journey to discover how the Twingo is going to reinvent the A segment. When we started the development of the Twingo, there was a clear lighthouse in front of us to become a masterpiece of right sizing. I will explain what is right sizing philosophy later. But this is meant to be a new generation of EV cars for the Eurma mobility and for the modern life. Every single choice in the Twingo has been made by having the electric technology at its best, focusing on tailor made sweet driving for the urban environment and to shape the urban landscape of the future. We started from a very solid foundation. in Dampers Mall. Dampers small is the same platform which is underpinning the car of the year R5, the car of the year LP290 and the finalist car of the year Renault 4. So it’s a platform you know very well and this clearly allows set to set a new world experience in the driving. This is an A segment car that drives like an upper segment car and this is due to a thing that I like to call together with the team air5 genetics. Right sizing is a development philosophy is a systematic approach on every area and component of the car. It is meant to create a virtuous cycle of timeization. More efficiency leads to a smaller more compact battery. This means we need a smaller e- motor to move the car and this allow us to rightsize the brakings and this comes to a better efficiency that allow us to rework the battery. So you see how the circle goes and it goes as low as 1.2 two tons in the twingo. In a very disciplined management, we brought a car in an era in which one automotive is leading to higher and higher weights in the car to a weight which is very very light and we are very proud of it. This has of course an amazing impact on driving and on comfort as well. We can’t talk EV cars without mentioning what’s the core of the EV technology, the battery. Following the right sizing lighthouse that we had in the team, we decided to go for a very compact size battery. And I would like to mention a few assets of the battery. LFP technology 27.5 kilowatt hour and cell to pack to be very compact. As a matter of fact, to reduce the weight, we went one step further. The battery is amazingly air cooled and this means we can put the battery as low as possible and as compact as we can. The cellto pack technology together with LFP is allowing us to optimize the capacity offered versus the range and the weight of the battery. And this means we can reach 260 kilometers of range, 263 to be precise. And it’s never below 250 whatever equipment you select. Just to mention a few numbers, in Europe an average driver is driving between 30 and 35 kilometers per day. So this means you can drive the Twingo on a single charge for a whole week. With the battery and with the lightweight, it goes together a very compact lightweight e- motors which is mighty capable of 82 horsepower and 175 neurometer. Just to give you a reference, an average A segment car in IC execution is having today between 110 and 120 Newton meter. So we do offer 50% more torque instantaneously available in order to be reactive and agile in the city. To give justice to all of this, as I said, we brought the air5 genetics in the car. This means thanks to amper native e platform, wide tracks, long wheel base, the 18 in wheels, 640 mm at the very corner of the car, and the same direct steering ratio that you enjoy already on the Renault 5. This means you will have an A segment car agile as never before for a urban driving environment. To further take the stress away together with the amazing drivability, of course, as mentioned, we implemented the one pedal which is a feature that we’re going to deploy and we deployed across all the EV cars in Renault Group. This is very important for me especially for a city car because this means in the traffic you’re going to use less and less the brake pedal as a matter of fact and you just use the throttle to take the stress away as part of our commitment is also real world safety and this is why Twingo is embedding no less than 24 driving assistance systems and this means easy to drive very safe and you can drive with confidence in the city for example as a first in the A segment we have a hands-free parking system as part of the old sensors and all the systems we have in the car. We designed the Twingo to make the life of the customer easier because we know very well for many customers the Twingo will be the first electric car in the household. Is our commitment to make the transition between an internal combustion engine car and the new future of EV car driving as easy and as smooth as possible and of course very pleasant. The new twingo is a connected car. Connected means is embedding our state-of-the-art open air link connectivity system together with Google. You are very familiar with it already. Is very a successful point and this is the premier in a segment car. To make the EV experience even more easy and as smooth as we can, we have in the car our route planner is not only allowing you to arrive at destination in time, of course, by taking into account real time traffic information, but it tells you automatically how many stops for charging you need, which kind of chargers you’re going to meet on the route and can you select even the allowed the desired sorry state of charge at your arrival. It can’t be easier than that. Speaking of charging, we have also the birectional charger embedded in the twingo. This means the car himself is your charging station. With V12 technology, you can charge your outlets, you can charge your ebike and utilize all the EV things you need on the go. Together with the V12 birectional charger, it goes along the vehicle to grid, the mobilized power solution that allows you to reduce the cost of electricity by continuously exchanging energy with the system and with the city. There is a lot to say about technology and I’m sure more to come when you’re going to experience and drive the car. But now let’s talk about a very important thing. What a car needs to be to deserve the name twingo. When we launched the twingo in 1993, it has been a very disruptive car. Enhancing and delivering the best footprint versus interior space ratio. We set a new standard in practicality for a segment car. But what ultra practical means today? First of all, the five door. We cannot have a car without five doors nowadays. Super practical, easy to access. And what happens when you open these five doors of just 3 m 79 meter car? You find an amazing space inside. Thanks to our native EV technology in the Twingo, we have a best-in-class roominess. This means we have B segment space as it was our target in an A segment car. For example, the knee room. Four adult occupants can easily fit comfortably inside the Tingo and the space for the legs on the rear rise up to 160 mm. This means no issue from the space whatsoever. But on top, the boot can be as large as 360 L. And this is due to a magical trick we have in the car. In every single Twingo, you will find a 50/50 sliding bench that independently allow you to manage your trunk space and the boots you need. This 360 L can increase up to a,000 liters when you fold the rear bench. And moreover than that, if you have long objects to carry, a surf for example or an ebike, you have space up to 2 m inside the car. What we do have also for you know do yourself customers and and bricker and so on is not only a lot of space but a lot of practicality. We have up to 19 liters inside the cabin of total storage. And in the smart trunk, you get also 50 liters for the charging cable underneath the trunk himself for storing the charging cable. Is also important that you can always access it. So this area is split in a 50/50 as well. When the trunk is offloaded, you can still take the charging cable. Those are just a few examples. And as I said, more to come when you’re going to experience and driving the Twingo. The Twingo is agile, is compact, is reactive, plenty of space, modular, nicely designed, connected, and safe. This is the Twingo, and we are very proud of it. I leave you now with a small movie, and thank you very much. [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Music] Rock They come the drum. You don’t know the words or you’ve been hung. [Music]
