London, June 16, 2025 , (Oilandgaspress) ––– Renault currently ranks number two on the European hybrid sales podium and is set to top the symbolic one million mark for sales of full hybrid E-Tech vehicles in the coming weeks.
Featuring an exclusive architecture, full hybrid E-Tech powertrains combine a combustion engine with two electric motors, a battery sized for purpose, and an intelligent clutchless multi-mode dogbox.
Every full hybrid E-Tech solution delivers a performance/efficiency ratio on a par with the best, whether it’s for a compact family vehicle such as Symbioz or a D-segment premium 5- or 7-seater, such as Espace.
The new full hybrid E-Tech 160 hp 1.8 litre powertrain is available with Symbioz, a C-segment mid- range vehicle, boasting a record 98 g/km of CO2 and 4.3 l/100 km WLTP. Setting a new standard on the hybrid market with its new 1.4 kWh battery, new 1.8l internal combustion engine and upgraded gearbox, it delivers more power for lower fuel consumption.
The optimised version of the full hybrid E-Tech 200 hp powertrain is available with Espace (4.8 litres/100 km and 108 g/km of CO2). The automatic dogbox gains new software for a more responsive drive with smoother acceleration. The most efficient family hybrid on the market, Espace is a long-distance traveller, with a load capacity of up to 943 litres and a range of 1,100 km.
These new powertrains are developed by Horse Powertrain, a joint venture between Renault Group, Geely and Aramco.
Ultra-efficient technology
Full hybrid E-Tech powertrains are particularly appreciated by customers for their impressive fuel consumption and low CO2 emissions. The new 160 hp version on Symbioz emits just 98g/km of CO2 for 4.3l/100km WLTP. New Espace is an equally strong performer, with 4.8 litres/100 km and 108 g/km of CO2 for the 200 hp powertrain with optimised gear changing.
These two family vehicles, each in its own segment, are true voitures à vivre, expressing the brand’s DNA. Their full hybrid E-Tech powertrains share a series-parallel architecture protected by over 150 patents and designed to reconcile driving pleasure with efficiency. The powertrains combine a combustion engine with two battery-powered electric motors and an intelligent multi-mode clutchless dogbox.
