charging solutions

Charge Megane E-Tech electric: 

• At home, plug it into your home charging unit 
• In the city, stop at one of the many public charging stations available.

Charging time varies depending on the selected configuration.

Standard charge: With standard charge, whether at home or at a public station, Megane E-Tech electric charges up to 50 km of driving range in 1 hour, so you can fully charge your battery overnight (7 to 10 hours depending on the battery). This charging mode is also compatible with all public charging stations including DC fast charging points (mainly on motorways) to recover up to 200 km WLTP in ~30 minutes with a power peak of 85 kW.

Boost Charge: In addition to home charging, you can enjoy the full power of AC public charging stations up to 22 kW with this version (charges 3x faster than Super Charge). Also compatible with DC rapid chargers to recover up to 200 km WLTP in ~30 minutes with a power peak of 85 kW. 

Super Charge: Ideal for home charging at 7 kW single-phase charging points, for a full charge overnight (9 hours). Also compatible with direct current (DC) fast chargers to recover up to 300 km WLTP in 30 minutes, with a maximum peak of 130 kW. 

Optimum Charge: In addition to home charging, you can enjoy the full power of AC public charging stations up to 22 kW with this version (charges 3x faster than Super Charge). It’s also compatible with fast DC chargers to recover up to 300 km WLTP in 30 minutes, with a maximum peak of 130 kW.

The battery in Megane E-Tech electric has no “memory effect”. It features cutting-edge lithium-ion technology, the most advanced on the market, delivering optimised driving range.

This means you can charge as needed, even partially, without risk of diminishing performance.

To optimise your charging time, particularly at a quick charge station, we recommend charging your vehicle only when the battery has less than 20% driving range remaining.

Using your My Renault mobile app, remotely control charge levels for your Megane E-Tech electric.

Need to charge? At home, remotely activate charging on your vehicle using your smartphone.

Depending on your version of Megane E-Tech electric, quick charging is an option on the road and lets you charge up to 300 km WLTP in 30 minutes.

To take full advantage of quick charging, we recommend charging the battery only when your remaining driving range is less than 20%.

Charging costs vary depending on the operator.Billing methods also vary, either charging by kW, charging time or by charging speed (on quick charge stations).

For optimal charging during a business trip, the Google Maps route planner built into your openR link proposes the best possible journey, taking into consideration the battery, the vehicle’s remaining driving range, road conditions, and the availability of charging stations (types of stations and their rates).
Megane E-Tech electric’s planner lets you condition the battery to make fast charging as efficient as possible. Available as standard on Evolution, Techno and Iconic.

The type of cable you should use depends on the Megane E-Tech electric version.
Your Megane E-Tech 3% electric is equipped with a  mode 3 type 2  cable as standard. You can connect this cable to your  home charging unit  or to any  public charging station  (on AC, more than 90% of public stations in France).
If a charging point is unavailable or for occasional charging, get a  Mode 2 “Flexicharger”* cable to charge your Megane E-Tech electric on a 3.7 kW Green’up reinforced socket. It takes between 20 and 30 hours to fully charge your vehicle using this cable.
All versions are equipped as standard with a DC fast charger (130 kW or DC 85 kW maximum power peak depending on versions), which is compatible with the high-power charging stations located on motorways. No need for an additional cable for this charging mode. The cables are directly attached to the charging station. Just like filling up at the pumps.
     *  available as an option on all versions

The charging cable provided with Megane E-Tech 5% electric is 5 metres long.
6.5-metre cables are also available and can be ordered from your dealership.

On Megane E-Tech electric, the charging flap is located at the front right of the vehicle.

Use a Mode 2 “Flexicharger”* cable to plug Megane E-Tech electric into a standard 2.3 kW domestic socket. This charging mode is suitable for occasional use only or when a specific charging point is unavailable. It takes between 20 and 30 hours to fully charge your vehicle.  

For a faster, safer solution, have a 7 or 22 kW home charging unit installed!
