The first teasers of the sixth generation Renault Espace have been published. The new model will debut this spring and will change radically – it will become a crossover. This is reported by the official website of the French brand.
The first Renault Espace in 1984 stood at the origins of the minivan segment, but now such models are not in demand. Family buyers prefer crossovers and decided to create a completely different Espace on the CMF-CD platform for the 40th anniversary.
The Renault Austral crossover will become the basis for the novelty – in fact, the Espace will be an elongated version of it. The teasers show that the two models have the same lights.
The Renault Espace crossover will be about 20 cm (4.7 m) longer than the Austral, and its wheelbase will be increased by 7 cm (up to 2.74 m) . This will allow you to install a third row of seats in the cabin, but it will be designed for children.
Renault Espace 2023 will be equipped with 1.2 liter (130 hp) and 1.3 liter (140 and 160 hp), and the flagship will be a 200-horsepower hybrid with fuel consumption of less than 5 liters per 100 km. Buyers will be offered a 6-speed manual transmission and a CVT, but the drive will be only front.
Espace is not the only minivan of the French brand that will turn into a crossover. The same fate awaits the new Renault Scenic.
