Renault plans major EV battery advances by 2030, using both NMC and LFP chemistries to cut costs and boost performance. New structural battery designs reduce parts and weight while enabling ranges up to 750 km and 10‑minute ultra‑fast charging on 800V models. Affordable 400V versions target 20‑minute charging. Renault aims to compete with Chinese manufacturers through efficiency, modular platforms, and lower production costs. [In French]
