| aspect | electric car | combustion-powered car |
|---|---|---|
| braking type | regenerative + mechanical | mechanical only |
| brake wear | slower, due in particular to regenerative braking | faster |
| disc maintenance | regenerative braking can reduce brake wear, but care must be taken with corrosion | This will depend on your driving style. Pads and discs are subject to greater stress, so they need to be replaced more often |
| driving feel | strong engine braking, "one-pedal" possible | conventional braking |
our brake services
complete brake system check
Our technicians check the entire braking system, including brake pads, discs, calipers, master cylinders and brake fluid, to detect any wear or failure and ensure proper operation and your safety.
pad and disc replacement
Over time, brake pads and discs wear out and lose their effectiveness. To ensure optimum braking performance, we recommend that you have them checked regularly. Our workshops can replace them, using original parts for long-lasting performance.
brake fluid check
Over time, brake fluid absorbs moisture, which can reduce its efficiency and lengthen braking distances. To ensure optimum braking performance, we recommend replacing it every 3 years or 74,500 miles even if the vehicle is not driven very much.

Worn brake pads can affect your car's stopping distance. Fortunately, all you'll need to do is bring your car to one of our retailers and they'll check them for you. If they need replacing, they'll do that too.
Renault recommend changing the brake fluid around every two years. Brake fluid has hygroscopic properties - meaning that it absorbs moisture during its life in your vehicle through the pipes, hoses and joints that it lubricates. Changing brake fluid when recommended prevents brake failure and maintains the boiling point at a safe level.
With Renault Genuine brake pads, you can maintain your vehicle's braking performance. Because each vehicle has unique braking characteristics, Renault designs it's brake pads taking into account the specificities of each vehicle to provide optimal performance in all conditions, even the most extreme.
