On October 12, Renault will unveil the E-Space concept during a press conference. Measuring 4.70 meters in length with a deep black finish and a wide U-shaped light strip, the vehicle aims to redefine family mobility in the electric era. The Renault 8 Gordini concept, a two-seater electric coupe measuring 4.12 meters, packs a 270-horsepower motor and adopts a minimalist "café racer" aesthetic. Meanwhile, the Renault 4 JP4x4 concept comes equipped with a four-wheel-drive system, reinterpreting the leisure off-road style.
Turning to production models, the new Mégane E-Tech features a 67 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, offering a range of up to 500 kilometers and a 15% to 80% DC fast charge time of just 24 minutes. It also integrates Google Gemini artificial intelligence. The Renault 5 Turbo 3E makes its appearance as an engineering prototype, featuring dual rear in-wheel motors that deliver 555 horsepower and 4,800 Nm of peak torque. The Twingo E-Tech gains a 0.7-square-meter panoramic glass roof, while the Rafale Hypnotic is a limited-edition model based on the 300-horsepower super hybrid version.
On the technology front, Renault is gradually rolling out LFP battery technology across its entire passenger vehicle lineup, utilizing cell-to-pack (CTP) architecture to optimize energy density and usable capacity. At the same time, the brand is introducing the Gemini AI assistant via over-the-air (OTA) updates and standardizing the One Pedal driving mode across all electric models, aiming to elevate the daily driving and connectivity experience.
At the Renault Pro+ stand in Hall 6, the brand is presenting its full light commercial vehicle lineup alongside its new Uptimize service. Notably, the new Trafic Van E-Tech has already secured the "2027 International Van of the Year" award. Additionally, Renault’s heritage museum in Flins is set to open in approximately 15 months, where it will display several restored classic models, including the Renault 8 Gordini.
