The current model is the best-selling electric van in Europe. PARIS -- The new-generation Renault Kangoo small van will be the first vehicle to use a full-electric version of the Renault-Nissan alliance CMF-C/D platform when it is launched by the end of the year. It will be joined by Nissan and Mercedes-Benz branded versions. Until now, the CMF-C/D platform, which underpins Renault and Nissan vehicles such as the Renault Scenic minivan and Talisman midsize sedan, and the Nissan X-Trail and Quashqai SUVs, has only been electrified with a few plug-in hybrid models, including the Renault Megane. Internal combustion engine versions of the new Kangoo go on sale in June.
