Orders open for Renault Master E-Tech, priced from £37,500

The new Renault Master E-Tech van is now available to order, with first deliveries expected before the end of the year.

The rival to the Ford E-Transit, Vauxhall Movano and Mercedes eSprinter is priced from £37,500 before VAT but after the application of the plug-in van grant.

The fourth-generation model uses a new battery and motor setup to offer major improvements in range and power alongside major upgrades in convenience and safety technology.

Using a 105kW/300Nm motor and an 87kWh battery, the new model offers a range of up to 285 miles – a 20% improvement on the previous model and almost 40 miles more than Ford’s segment leader. A 130kW DC fast charge adds 142 miles of range in just 30 minutes, while a 22kW AC charger tops up the battery from 10% to 100% in just under four hours.

The new Master E-Tech comes in four body variants offering load spaces of between 11 and 14.8 cubic metres of cargo space, a carrying capacity of between 1,074kg and 1,625kg, and a towing limit of 2.5 tonnes.

Inside, the 2025 Van of the Year winner, offers a new cabin layout with a 10-inch touchscreen feature wireless smartphone charging, and a 25% increase in storage space. The van also gets a suite of 20 driver assistance systems including lateral stability control, automatic emergency braking and trailer stability assist. It also comes with Intelligent Speed Assist, to help the driver stay within the speed limit.
