Renault Trezor Concept.
At the 2016 Paris Motor Show, the French car company Renault unveiled its absolutely incredible electric car.
The Renault Trezor is a 2-seater all-electric show car that won the Most Beautiful Concept Car of 2016 award.
Renault Trezor specifications
Since this is a concept, the performance requirements are fairly nominal. The electric vehicle has a single electric motor with an output of 257 kW (350 hp) and a torque of 380 N * m. Acceleration from 0-100 km / h takes 4 seconds. The maximum speed is electronically limited to 250 km / h.
The electric motor is powered by a 28 kWh lithium-ion battery. The power reserve has not yet been announced by the manufacturer.
Also, nothing is known about the possibility of high-speed charging, but it is assumed that it will be.
Renault Trezor is known to have two battery packs with independent cooling systems. This solution provides the vehicle with ideal weight distribution on all four sides.
Design
The exterior of the Renault Trezor is unique in that it has only one line at the junction of the roof and the bottom of the car. The roof is also a door.
The chief designer was inspired by the «wedding ring box». That is why it opens on the «shell» principle, thereby giving access to the salon.
The car makes extensive use of carbon fiber and carbon fiber to reduce overall weight. The body shape is maximally streamlined.
Thanks to it, the drag coefficient is reduced to 0.22, which is a very low indicator. The 22-inch discs are made in the style of the Eiffel Tower.
There is no radiator grill. Instead, there is a honeycomb-shaped air intake on the hood. It is an active design element and also opens when the battery needs cooling. Dimensions LxWxH (mm) = 4700 x 2100 x 1080. Curb weight = 1600 kg.
The interior design is more minimalistic. The interior and windshield are painted red. The cabin has an OLED touchscreen.
The entire panel in front of the passengers is made of mahogany, which also matches the French style.
The steering wheel is rectangular to emphasize the sportiness of the Renault Trezor. The manufacturer claims to have an autonomous driving level. What specific level is not specified.
An interesting design feature: when the autonomous mode is turned on, the steering wheel moves apart on either side of the driver.
This gives the driver a greater panoramic view during the journey.
Renault Trezor price
The electric car was expected to go commercial in 2020. However, this never happened.
None of the official representatives announced the exact cost of the Renault Trezor. However, according to some estimates, it will be possible to buy a Renault Trezor for no less than $ 3,000,000.
This fantastic amount is just speculation, and it is unlikely that it will ever become relevant.
After all, the company does not intend to produce this electric car in a similar design configuration.
The vice president of the company said that many features will be eliminated for the sake of practicality and reliability.
Conclusion
The Renault Trezor is undeniably one of the most beautiful cars available today. The French have once again confirmed their title of the most shocking nation.
The designers put all their incredible talent and experience into creating this project. Unfortunately, much will remain on paper or in a single copy.
However, what gets to the production side shouldn’t disappoint. What can you say about this electric car? Leave your feedback about Renault Trezor in the comments.
