The instrument panel adds a crescent-shaped analog speedometer with a small digital display. Which shows information about the percentage of charge, remaining autonomy, instantaneous speed, outside temperature, selected gear and data from the on-board computer.
The rear doors are simple: the second-row windows feature compass-style openings, and the grab handle is a four-finger-sized floating piece you grip on. Its doors are basic.

It is enough power for quiet driving with few benefits (recovers from 80-120 km/h in 11.5 seconds) responding optimally to overtaking or driving on the highway (the maximum speed is electronically limited to 135 km/h). .
Battery, autonomy and consumption
The Twingo Electric owns a ECO mode which limits the maximum speed to 100 km/h, achieving the 109 km/h marker when driving on the flat and restricts power to 46 CV (34 kW) from 50 km/h (up to that speed there is no power limitation ). The air conditioning system is not affected by the ECO modeso it has the same performance when it comes to heating/cooling the passenger compartment.
To make the most of the use of energy, it has energy recovery under braking, selectable through mode B on the gear lever. Selecting three positions: B1, B2 or B3. In the B3, maximum energy is recovered and the use of the brake pedal is quite limited.
As for the energy accumulator, it has a lithium-ion battery with 21.3 kWh of useful capacity. Has LG Chem cells located under the front seats to optimize weight distribution.
It has a range of 190 kilometers in WLTP cyclewhich is increased to 225 km using the ECO mode. In the city, it homologates 270 km of autonomy (WLTP Urban), the negative part is that the brand announces only 110 km of autonomy in winter.
Regarding the load, the Twingo Electric It comes with the Caméléon charger as standard, which recharges at powers ranging from 2.4 kW (a conventional household plug) to 22 kW on three-phase alternating current.

It has two levels of equipment: Zen and Vibes Limited Editionwith a differentiated aesthetic, orange bodywork and more equipment.
apparently for Gerard Piqué It is a car that is worth having, as it has been seen driving it on the main roads of the city.
