Renault will introduce two fully-electric vehicles to Australia, adding to the small number of carmakers with available EVs in Australia though its Zoe light hatch and Kangoo Z.E. models.

Despite its relative similarity in size to renault’s existing Clio range, the battery-powered five-door Zoe hatch will be priced from $44,470 while the Kangoo Z.E. Maxi commercial van will be a $45,990 proposition.

Buyers with green aspirations won’t have open access to the new range additions however, with the EV pair not appearing in showrooms. Instead Renault will sell the Zoe and Kangoo Z.E. directly to businesses and government departments only.

The fleet-focused strategy give Renault an opportunity to introduce electric vehicles, which the company has long-stated a desire to introduce, without providing them to purchasers who might be affected by Australia’s lack of charging infrastructure.
