SIZE DOES MATTER IN THE CITY.

Small cars are a thing we used to once love in Ireland, my first car was a Ford Fiesta, and it was perfect as a starter car.

The industry calls this size the "A Segment" of the market. When the Twingo was launched by Renault back in the early 90's, this segment was 25% of all cars sold in Europe.

They weren't just loved by the Irish it seems. Fast forward to today and this segment is only 5% of cars sold in Europe. In Ireland this year it's less than 1%.

Can the new electric Twingo change this? Renault thinks it can with a decent range and affordable price, let's see.

Last week I was in Ibiza to drive the new Twingo, it’s 4th generation. Ireland didn't see the first gen as they never produced it in right hand drive and then we got limited numbers of the later one.
