The all new Renault Austral E-Tech full hybrid is now even more attractive to private and business customers after industry expert CAP predicted best-in-class residual values for the electrified SUV.
In a highly competitive segment that is growing rapidly, the innovative SUV hybrid is forecast by CAP to eclipse established and popular HEV rivals to take the residual value crown, retaining 50.5% of its original retail value after 3 years/60,000 miles.
The unrivalled residual value of Renault’s latest E-Tech car follows CAP’s in-depth study of the all new Austral E-Tech full hybrid prior to launch, underlining how the highly-connected and sporty SUV has delivered on its promise now that it is available to order.
Class-leading residual values add another string to the bow of the cutting-edge petrol hybrid, building on its attributes such as its premium, Google-powered digital experience, advanced powertrain and extensive standard equipment that includes up to 30 Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).
Whether they are a retail customer or making a business-based purchase, car buyers are set to benefit from CAP’s strong prediction, the forecast ensuring Renault’s latest electrified offering sits amongst the most cost efficient cars available when its pricing and specification are also considered.
The result complements the attractive benefit-in-kind rate that the all new Austral E-Tech full hybrid qualifies for. Class-leading CO2 emissions as low as 105g/km contribute to a 26% BIK rating, while the ability to achieve a rival-beating 60.1mpg further minimises running costs. Although an exceptionally efficient hybrid electric vehicle, such frugality isn’t to the detriment of usability or performance; the all new Austral E-Tech full hybrid boasts a class-leading range of 683 miles while its 200hp drivetrain ensures impressive acceleration.
The all new Austral E-Tech full hybrid is available to order now priced from £34,695 OTR.
