Renault is planning to develop new electric cars for the future. We’re going to have three models available by the 2012 Olympics in London. That’s the event where the French manufacturer will want to have the electric vehicles displayed.

We are looking at the electric version of the Kangoo MPV, the Megane sedan and a small city car based on a new platform. Renault plans to use these new models in London so they plan to set up charging station around London ready to replace batteries in about 5 minutes in case you failed to charge them overnight. You will get some 100 miles of range of each battery so the new electric Renault sound pretty good to me.
