The Specs
About the Renault 4 E-Tech 52 kWh
-
Battery
52 kWh
Usable battery capacity. The number that matters for charging-time maths.
-
DC Peak
100 kW
Pairs perfectly with a typical 150 kW motorway rapid.
-
AC Max
11 kW
Standard 11 kW three-phase. Most home wallboxes will charge at full pace.
-
Range gain (estimate)
≈ 127 mi
Rough miles added by a 10–80% fast-charging session (assuming ~3.5 mi/kWh).
How we calculate
The formula, in the open
Charging time is energy needed divided by effective power. We model the typical, warm, healthy case so the number is honest, not optimistic. Read the full methodology for the curve assumptions and sources.
Common Questions
Renault 4 E-Tech — frequently asked
How long does it take to charge a Renault 4 E-Tech 52 kWh?
From 10% to 80% in approximately 31 minutes on a 150 kW DC fast charger. From empty to full in around 7h 48m on a 7.4 kW home wallbox. Times above are for a warm, healthy battery — cold packs and busy charger sites can extend them by 10–20%.
What is the Renault 4 E-Tech’s maximum charging speed?
The Renault 4 E-Tech 52 kWh accepts up to 100 kW on a DC fast charger and up to 11 kW on AC. Power tapers above 80% state of charge to protect the battery cells.
Can the Renault 4 E-Tech use a 350 kW ultra-rapid charger?
It will work but the car only draws up to 100 kW. A 100 kW or 150 kW charger gives the same speed at lower cost.
How long to charge a Renault 4 E-Tech at home?
On a typical 7.4 kW home wallbox the Renault 4 E-Tech fills from empty in around 7h 48m. Plug in overnight and the charge time stops mattering.
Is it bad to charge the Renault 4 E-Tech to 100%?
For day-to-day driving most manufacturers recommend an 80% ceiling on lithium-ion (NCM/NCA) chemistries, and 100% on LFP. Charge to 100% before a long trip and use the full range that day.
