Renault Twingo
Lobby your local Renault dealer now to get them to bring in the gorgeous new Twingo EV.
Get ready for some sibling rivalry because the Renault 5 E-Tech has just had its Cutest Electric Car crown stolen by the new Renault Twingo. Clearly channelling the spirit of the 1990s original in its happy-face styling and its colourful interior, this new Twingo gets a 262km range and should have a sub-€20,000 price tag. However, hold your breath just a little as Irish sales are not quite confirmed yet, but hopefully by the time the Twingo goes on European sale in 2027, they will be.

The tiny, hot Renault Twingo GT plays the retro card, but can it deliver handling greatness?
