Renault used the Paris Motor Show on 12 October 2026 to put French list prices on the battery-electric Trafic Van E-Tech. The numbers are before tax, and they apply in France. They are not a United Kingdom on-the-road price, and they are not a plug-in hybrid offer. The van is a full battery-electric model with two pack sizes and two different dates for opening orders.
Renault’s media release prices the short L1 Advance at €41,500 before tax with the 60 kWh battery and €47,000 before tax with the 81 kWh battery. L’Automobile Magazine, reporting the same day, printed those Advance anchors and added the higher Extra trim at €43,500 and €49,000 before tax. Those four figures are the part of the grid two sources agree on. Renault is also offering a longer L2 body. This piece stays with the short-body prices both the manufacturer and the magazine state, because the long-body step is not described the same way in every same-day report.
Order timing splits the range as sharply as the stickers do. Renault says versions with the 81 kWh battery open for orders in the coming weeks, while versions with the 60 kWh battery wait until early 2027. The lower entry price and the longer-range van are not available on the same clock.
Range figures are still provisional. Renault quotes up to 350 km on the WLTP cycle for the 60 kWh “comfort” battery and up to 470 km WLTP for the 81 kWh pack, and it marks both as awaiting final homologation. The same release gives higher city-cycle numbers, up to 510 km and 690 km. Those are urban-cycle claims, not a second WLTP rating. Renault also states average consumption of 17.2 kWh per 100 km.
The charging headline needs the same plain reading. This is Renault’s first production model on an 800-volt architecture, and the company is leading with that. Peak DC power on the 81 kWh van is 190 kW. Renault says a stop at that rate can restore about 280 km of combined-cycle range in 20 minutes. L’Automobile Magazine treats 190 kW as a modest peak for an 800-volt van. That is a fair reading: the voltage label does not set the charge speed by itself. Alternating-current charging up to 22 kW is in the plan, but the magazine reports that the higher AC rate comes later on the smaller battery.
GetEVCar already lists both vans. The Trafic Van E-Tech 81 kWh card shows 190 kW DC charging. The Trafic Van E-Tech 60 kWh card is the comfort-range version. Both pages mark United Kingdom availability as announced, with no sterling price. Monday’s French release does not fill that gap.
Advance is specified as a working van rather than a bare shell. Renault’s release includes a heat pump, hands-free access, a vehicle-to-load outlet, adaptive cruise control, a 12.3-inch screen, a reversing camera, parking sensors and LED lamps, plus a wooden load floor with lashing rings. Extra, on the magazine’s account of the price list, adds automatic air conditioning, a mobile office, Google navigation, a 230-volt socket in the cargo bay and a hatch for long items. Treat that list as the manufacturer’s standard-fit claim.
Renault also says the cost of owning the electric Trafic can sit up to 10 percent below a diesel van of similar size. That comparison is the company’s, tied to a software-defined platform and to a fleet programme, Uptimize, which it has scheduled for 2027. It is not an independent cost study. Production is at Sandouville, on the same line as the combustion Trafic. Renault’s own product FAQ says so, and Paris Normandie repeated the Sandouville line the same morning.
Shoppers comparing Renault vans on this site can start from the Renault brand page, the UK market, and the van body type. The smaller battery-electric van already listed is the Kangoo E-Tech. Nothing in the 12 October French price sheet sets a UAE or US on-sale date.
One older fact is easy to mix into Monday’s news. On 15 September Renault said an International Van of the Year jury had named this Trafic its van of the year for 2027. The new information is the French before-tax price and the split between “coming weeks” for the larger battery and early 2027 for the smaller one.
