Overview
- Renault will unveil the E‑Space Concept at the Paris Motor Show on Oct. 12, presenting an electric reinterpretation of the 1984 Espace that previews a roomy, family-focused MPV.
- The company confirmed it will roll lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry across its electric passenger range, using cell-to-pack designs to cut cost and improve price-to-range metrics.
- Renault published a few concrete details for the E‑Space: it is 4.70 metres long, finished in a ‘black rubé’ paint and uses a boxy, high-glass profile that echoes the original Espace, with no interior or powertrain specs released yet.
- Renault said the updated Megane E‑Tech with a 67 kWh LFP pack can reach about 500 km and charge from 15% to 80% in 24 minutes, and the company will offer Google’s Gemini assistant to OpenR Link cars via an optional over-the-air update.
- Observers note Renault’s recent record of turning concepts into production and the firm’s RGEV platform plans, so a production E‑Space is being speculated to be possible in roughly two years but that outcome remains unconfirmed by Renault.
