- A range of 1,008 km on a single charge
- Know about this car
There is always a question in the minds of consumers about the range of electric vehicles. Many ask how far an electric car can actually travel once fully charged. Renault has given an effective answer to this question through its Filante Record 2025 demo car. This electric car has traveled as much as 1008 kilometers in a single charge. Interestingly, this record was achieved at sustained highway speeds and not in any lab test.
Where and how did this record?
Renault set the record on December 18 at the UTAC test circuit in Morocco. During this testing, the Filante Record 2025 ran at an average speed of 102 km/h. The car completed the entire 1,008 km journey in 9 hours and 52 minutes.

Same battery, but different ideology
The battery of the car plays an important role behind this record. The Filante Record 2025 uses an 87 kWh battery, which is also offered in the Renault Scenic E-Tech Electric. The difference is not in battery size, but in energy efficiency. This demo car consumed just 7.8 kWh per 100 km, which is far less than most production EVs today.
Not only this, the battery had 11% charge left even after traveling 1,008 km. So this car could have run about 120 km more at a speed of over 100 km/h.
Aerodynamics turned out to be a game changer
Instead of fitting a bigger battery, Renault focused on the design and engineering of the car. Filante Record 2025 weighs only 1,000 kilograms. Carbon fiber and lightweight aluminum parts have been extensively used for this. Some components have been created through 3D printing.

Renault’s Glimpse of Future Technology
Renault Filante Record 2025 is not just a record breaking car, it is a walking-talking technology based car. It features Steer-by-wire and Brake-by-wire systems, and traditional mechanical links have been removed. Michelin developed special low-rolling-resistance tires for the car, while the powertrain, chassis and carbon structure were handled by Ligier.
Renault’s message for future EVs
According to Renault, a larger battery is not always necessary to increase the practical range of electric vehicles. If the car is light, designed with better aerodynamics and energy losses are minimized, excellent range can be achieved. Although the company doesn’t plan to put the Filante Record into production by 2025, the engineering and technology from this car will definitely be seen in future Renault electric vehicles.
