Paris Motorshow 2026: Inovev forecasts around 75,000 Renault Twingo E-Tech vehicles sold in 2030
- Renault has unveiled the new all-electric Twingo E-Tech (A-segment), which will go on sale in spring 2026. It remains quite close to the concept presented last year but features five doors, like the latest Twingo sold from 2014 to 2024. The new model's one-box design is reminiscent of the first version presented in 1992 (which only had three doors). Measuring 3.79 m long, 1.72 m wide, and 1.49 m high, the Twingo E-Tech was designed in-house (and no longer with the help of Mercedes, as with the previous generation) in both Europe and China. The main advantage of the Twingo E-Tech compared to the Renault 4 E-Tech and Renault 5 E-Tech is that it will appeal to customers looking for a more affordable electric car (under €20,000).
- Given its low price, the Twingo E-Tech is positioned as an economical city car, hence its 82 hp electric motor coupled with a 27.5 kWh battery, allowing for a limited range of 263 km in the best-case scenario. This model is not yet the E-Car envisioned by the European Commission, as it is €5,000 more expensive, but it remains one of the least expensive electric models on the market today, although the Dacia Spring is even cheaper (€17,000).
- The Renault Twingo E-Tech is expected to lead to a future Dacia of the same dimensions and also a future Nissan. These three vehicles will be produced in the same factory, in Novo Mesto, Slovenia. Inovev forecasts 76,000 Twingos sold in 2030, plus 46,000 Dacias and 28,000 Nissan derivatives, for a total of 150,000 cars.

Paris Motorshow 2026: Inovev forecasts 50,000 units per year of the new Dacia Striker
- The carmaker Dacia (a subsidiary of Renault) continues its move upmarket by unveiling a raised C-segment station wagon called Striker, based on the same platform as the Bigster SUV, as well as the internal combustion and hybrid engines.
- This model is now the longest in the Dacia range, at 4.62 m long, 5 cm longer than the Bigster and 7 cm longer than the Jogger. It also has no equivalent in the Renault range, which has progressively abandoned its C and D segment sedans and station wagons with internal combustion engines. In the Dacia range, the Striker is to the Jogger what the Bigster is to the Duster, i.e. a slightly larger and slightly more expensive model.
- The base engine, driving the front wheels, is the 1.2 TCe . This turbocharged three-cylinder, paired with mild hybrid technology and a six-speed manual transmission, produces 138 hp (101 kW). The other version is equipped with the Hybrid 155 system. This combines a 1.8-liter gasoline engine with a 49 hp electric motor integrated into the automatic transmission. This system delivers a total output of 155 hp (114 kW).
- With Dacia's factories in Morocco (Tangier) and Romania (Pitesti) operating at full capacity, the Striker will be produced at the Renault plant in Turkey (Bursa), at a rate of 50,000 units per year according to Inovev. This is the first time a Dacia model has been assembled in Turkey.
- While the Jogger is priced at 28,000 euros in its F-HEV 1.8 version and the Bigster F-HEV 1.8 is priced at 30,000 euros, the Striker F-HEV 1.8 could become the most expensive model in the Dacia range.

- The Alpine A110 coupé, launched in 2017, was a tribute to the iconic Alpine A110 of the 1970s. This gasoline-powered model, whose production ceased in June 2026, sold 30,000 units in total, a respectable figure for its class. The next generation of the Alpine A110, expected to be unveiled at the 2026 Paris Motor Show, will be fully electric.
- It will be heavier and more expensive than the petrol-powered A110 that has just been discontinued. It will be a prime competitor for the future Porsche Boxster and Cayman, which will also be equipped with a fully electric motor.
- But the future electric Alpine A110 will no longer be the only model in the brand's catalogue, since for two years the carmaker's range has expanded to include the A290, which is a sportier version of the electric Renault 5 E-Tech, and the A390, which is an electric crossover rivaling the electric Porsche Macan.
- It is clear that the largest sales volumes will be on the A290 and not on the electric A110 which will remain an image model, like the old A110 with a combustion engine.

- The battery electric Dacia Spring will be completely redesigned. Instead of the small A-segment model, 3.73 m long, derived from the Indian Renault Kwid and produced in China, then re-exported to Europe, the brand will present a much more modern model, about ten centimeters longer, using the same platform as the very recent electric Renault Twingo and produced this time in Europe, more precisely in Slovenia, at the Renault factory in Novo Mesto where the Renault Twingo is produced and where a Nissan derivative of the Twingo will also be produced, probably next year.
- The new Dacia Spring, which has its own design and personality, will be a little cheaper than the Renault Twingo, since Dacia's policy is to offer cars that are cheaper than Renaults in the same category.
- Its price will logically be lower than the minimum €19,490 charged by its Renault cousin. It should be set at €17,900, which is €1,000 more than the previous Dacia Spring but €1,590 less than the Twingo. Furthermore, the new Spring will benefit from the government incentive of €3,620 as a model produced in Europe.
- The new Dacia Spring is expected to inherit the Twingo's engine developing 82 hp (60 kW), as well as its 27.5 kWh battery capable of allowing it to travel approximately 250 km according to the WLTP cycle.
- The previous Dacia Spring sold just over 200,000 units in total between 2019 and 2026, and the new generation will need to do better. Inovev estimates cumulative sales of the new Spring at 250,000 units between 2026 and 2031.
