Renault is awaiting a sun rise to elevate over its production line. A sun rise that will spark off vitality and endeavour to bring about a change in Renaults sales, a change that could promote a flourish within the car dealer, or that could cause a staggering downfall in expectations. After much consideration and head strong collaboration, Renault can now publish that their electric concepts that were show roomed at this year’s Frankfurt motor show have the all clear and will be paraded around the automotive industry in less than two years.
The electric Renault, crazy but classy, has wowed car dealers over the industry, and has also caused surprise among the public. It was bound to happen, do you ever wonder about what the automotive industry will be like in one hundred years? Perhaps the run of petrol and diesel will be abolished, the world will be controlled by electricity alone, and maybe in ten years after that, they’ll be created to fly. Our world is getting greener by the second, people are recycling as if their lives depend on it, lights are being turned off and cars are transferring to electricity. How much effort is recycling and reading in the dark though? The electric Renault has mastered the power of nurturing our environment, whilst providing an effortless and more fun way of doing so. Money shouldn’t come into it; easily affordable, with no surprises or strings attached.
The safe, practical and comfortable elements are all knitted into this patchwork quilt of luxury that encompasses the driver and passengers along their journey. It shadows the features of a smart, innovative and modern city that is bustling with many ordinary cars that will break down at the sight of the fresh glow that circulates around the new electric cars. Noise is no more, and that should sound wonderful, but to pedestrians, this could be a word of warning as noise is one of the essential indicators shouting not to cross the road.
There are variations within this green idea to appeal to numerous markets. A Fluence will fall into our world, introducing families to a more innovative and enticing model that will provide them with practicality and comfort. The Zoe is another that will accommodate a relaxing aura and comfort at its greatest. In desperation of having those heavy loads lifted from your poor car that is feeling the heavy pain, the Kangoo will defeat that desperation. The Twizy, a spacey two seater is smaller, but has the agility and comfort that would make those tedious journeys pleasant. There is plenty of choice that nobody should completely disregard.
This is the first, incredibly brave move of the French Renault car dealers. They are putting their foot out first, providing a range of electric models along their production line that aim to attract different markets, something no car dealer has dared to do. Whether they will be able to put their second foot out and stand firm in this challenge, we have yet to discover.
