Renault Twingo

Renault revives its cute 1990s city car as an EV that's true to the original's ethos This is the last of the rejuvenated cute Renaults. The Twingo first appeared in 1992 as a city car so sweet that it apparently deserved a follow-up in the same fashion as the recent 5 and 4 – electric, retro reboots of cars we remember from our younger days.It was a city car then and it’s one again now too, this Twingo – which the French, owing to its ranine headlights, apparently have affectionately dubbed ‘Le Frog’ (after an animated fictional character, which is presumably why it’s not ‘La Grenouille’).
