Developed by Mobilize in response to the challenges of moving people and goods in and around cities, Duo is a two-seat electric quadricycle, while Bento is its utility version, equipped with an adaptable 649-litre cargo box.
Their central driving position and compact dimensions make them easy to manoeuvre in city traffic and simple to park. They feature a driver’s airbag – a first in the quadricycle segment – and a generous all-electric range: 100 miles for Duo* and 87 miles for Bento*.
Both are designed to be eco-responsible, with a simplified production process that includes over 40% of recycled materials. At the end of their life, they are at least 95% recyclable.
Natively connected, they have their own MyDuo app, which can generate up to six digital keys – a first for Renault Group – and allow users to be given permission to open the vehicle remotely, making initiatives such as car-sharing much simpler.
Duo and Bento will be available through selected outlets in the Renault network.
Estimated timings for the UK launch are orders opening in early spring and sales beginning before the summer.
Pricing expected to be from around £9300, rising to £9999.
