R-talk
Marine Clinchard, our expert, explains everything on the new full hybrid E-Tech 160 hp powertrain.
full hybrid E-Tech technology
Renault Symbioz pairs an electric motor with an efficient combustion engine, which alternate or operate simultaneously when required. The multimodal automatic gearbox prioritises electric driving.
regenerative braking
Renault Symbioz delivers dynamic acceleration while also reducing your fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. With regenerative braking, the battery is automatically charged during braking and deceleration. With the full hybrid E-Tech powertrain, there's no need to plug in to charge the battery.
