Canadian B&B, get ready: The Renault Twizzy EV is coming to your shores at last.
Renault has chosen Azra Network in Terrebonne, Quebec to distribute the Twizzy pending approval by Transport Canada, Le Soleil reports. Once approved, Azra will sell the EV online for delivery or pickup at its headquarters, and establish service centers for any repair work needed down the road.
The Twizy45 will be the sole model sold in Canada, though its maximum speed will drop from 45 kph to 40 kph in order to meet the nation's low-speed vehicle standards. Range is 120 kilometers per charge, with recharging to take three hours on a 240-volt setup. Price of admission is expected to be $16,000 CDN, with $1,000 off via tax credits.
Aside from becoming a distributor of the Renault Twizzy, Azra Network operates a private network of charging stations 240- and 400-volt chargers, and recently sold 600 stations as part of Quebec's Branché au travail program.
