Renault создала электрический фургон с запасом хода 200 километров
Компания Renault Pro+ представила на автосалоне в Брюсселе электрическую версию фургона Master, а также модернизированный Kangoo Z.E. с увеличенным на 50% запасом хода. Таким образом, электрическая линейка французской марки теперь состоит из четырех моделей: Twizy, Zoe, Kangoo Z.E. и Master Z.E.
Новый электромобиль Renault Master Z.E. укомплектован аккумуляторной батареей ёмкостью 33 кВт⋅ч и одним мотором R75 мощностью 57 кВт (76 л.с.), который также устанавливается на хэтчбек Renault Zoe. От одной 100-процентной зарядки коммерческий фургон проезжает по европейскому испытательному циклу NEDC до 200 км. При подключении к зарядной станции мощностью 7 кВт восстановление запаса энергии занимает около шести часов.
Внешне электрический Renault Master никак не отличается от дизельных. Новинка будет продаваться в трех вариантах длины и двух версиях высоты.
В компании Renault ожидают, что новинка окажется востребованной для доставки товаров в городской черте, поскольку по вместимости и грузоподъемности электрокар не уступает дизельным модификациям, но при этом не выбрасывает в атмосферу вредных веществ. Весомое преимущество на фоне недавних заявлений мэров Парижа, Мадрида, Афин и Мехико о запрете до 2025 года эксплуатации в городах дизельных автомобилей. Европейские продажи Renault Master Z.E. начнутся в конце 2017 года.
Renault Kangoo Z.E.
Компактный фургон Renault Kangoo Z.E получил такую же как у «Мастера» аккумуляторную батарею емкостью 33 кВт⋅ч, новый мотор мощностью 60 л.с., который построен на базе силового агрегата R75/90 для обновленного Renault Zoe, и иное зарядное устройство (как у Renault Master Z.E.). С новой батареей и мотором паспортный запас хода Kangoo Z.E. вырос со 170 до 270 км, а в приближенных к повседневным условиях – до 200 км. В компании «Рено» заявили, что в настоящее время это лучший показатель «дальнобойности» для электрического LCV. Во Франции и некоторых других странах Европы модернизированный Kangoo Z.E. можно будет купить начиная с лета этого года.

Напомним, новая версия Renault Zoe – ZE 40 – была рассекречена в сентябре 2016 года. Такая модификация хэтчбека получила аккумуляторную батарею ёмкостью 41 кВт⋅ч (вместо батареи ёмкостью 22 кВт⋅ч), модернизированную систему охлаждения и энергоменеджмента, а также опциональную систему быстрой зарядки. Двигатели – мощностью 77 или 88 л.с., в зависимости от модификации. От одной зарядки хэтчбек с новым оборудованием проезжает до 400 км в цикле NEDC и около 300 км – в реальных условиях.

A unique range of four electric light commercial vehicles
Renault Pro+ now includes four electrics LCVs: Twizy Cargo (a quadricycle with a boot launched in 2014), New Commercial ZOE (based on New ZOE with a range of 400 km NEDC launched in September 2016), New Kangoo Z.E. and Master Z.E.
New Kangoo Z.E. - New Kangoo Z.E. features major innovations: a new battery, new engine, new charger, new innovative connected services, and a heat pump in the air conditioning system.
New Kangoo Z.E. is equipped with a new "Z.E.33" battery (33kWh) and also gains a new engine, 100% Renault, developing 60 hp and based on the ZOE R75/90 engine. It is built in France at the Renault Cléon plant.
New Kangoo Z.E. now proposes a range of 270 km NEDC compared with 170 km for Kangoo Z.E. In real use, on a delivery cycle3***, the vehicle would have a range of around 200 km with a single load. New Kangoo Z.E. has a greater available range than any other electric LCV.
New Kangoo Z.E. cuts charging time thanks to a new-generation 7 kW AC charger. A full charge takes around six hours from a 7 kW WallBox. With this more powerful charger, New Kangoo Z.E. recovers a range of 35 km in just one hour of charging (in a temperate climate).
New Kangoo Z.E. features a real innovation in the world of electric LCVs: a heat pump linked to the air conditioning, maintaining range in cold weather.
New Kangoo Z.E. is built in France and will go on sale in Europe from mid-2017.
Master Z.E.: Renault's expertise in electric vehicles soon available in a large van
Master Z.E. gains the Z.E. expertise of Renault, European leader in electric vehicles, while maintaining all the qualities that have made Master a benchmark in the heavy van sector.
This electric version of Master is aimed primarily at fleets running last-mile distribution services in the city, as well as large municipalities and local government. This heavy van's load characteristics, range and charge time are tailored to the needs of business customers in and around cities.
Master Z.E. is equipped with the "Z.E. 33" battery (33 kWh) and fitted with the R75, an engine of advanced energy efficiency,with output of 57 kW/76 hp, inherited from ZOE. Master Z.E. has a range of 200 km NEDC.
Master Z.E. takes less than one night to charge: a full charge takes six hours with the 7 kW WallBox.
Master Z.E. will arrive in the European market at the end of 2017.
Connected services for all Renault LCV customers
Like its consumer electric vehicles, LCV customers can also take advantage of new connected services like Z.E. Trip and Z.E. Pass on New Kangoo Z.E. These services enable an easy charging on one of Europe's 80,000 public EV charging points. In 2017, Renault Pro+ will also be rolling out a number of other connected services dedicated to business users, starting with two prioritary service families, "Fleet Management" and "Predictive Maintenance".
"Fleet Management" is a telematic service which gives access for fleet managers to:
valuable vehicle data for effective and efficient business management.
better total cost of ownership (TCO), cutting fleet running costs (lower consumption, manage and plan servicing).
"Predictive Maintenance" involves issuing real-time information on the vehicle's condition. Based on the predictive data analysis system, it helps to:
Plan ahead for maintenance and thus optimize servicing costs.
Maximize vehicle availability to increase productivity.
Ensure driver safety.
