Therefore, Renault Twizy comes with a starting price of just €6,990, which, according to Renault, it makes the model more affordable than a three-wheel scooter as the taxes are significantly smaller. If you want one of these it should be known that two different versions will be available. More exactly, you can opt for Twizy 45 which requires no driving license mainly because it can reach a top speed of just 45 km/h being fitted with a 5-horsepower electric engine.
