Renault Teases Four Electric Vehicle Concepts for Frankfurt

 Renault Teases Four Electric Vehicle Concepts for Frankfurt
Renault Four Zero Emissions Electric Vehicle Concepts Teaser image

Renault has sent out this teaser image, along with a brief write-up, to whet our appetites in anticipation of the Renault Zero Emission line-up.  The company has announced that four electric concepts will be officially unveiled during the Frankfurt Motor Show next week.

The drawings of the four vehicles leave some room for speculation, beginning with the tiny one-seater on the left side of the photo.  Barely able to fit a passenger and a briefcase, it is clear that this vehicle will be Renault's suggestion to make hyper-urban living easier.  Next to that, is a three-door model just big enough for four people.  The drawing suggests this car will have solar panels built into the large, panoramic roof glass.  The other two models are a bit more covered up, but the last vehicle seems to be a five-door unit that also makes use of panoramic glass, and is quite a bit roomier than the other units.  Also note the mid-mounted antenna in the third drawing.

Beginning at 10:45am GMT, Renault CEO Carlos Ghosn will present the vehicles to the media at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

My guess: The big one on the right could be based on new megan, the one next to it could be a preview of the upcoming twingo roadster, the third is based on twingo and last one is probably a pedalcar(just kidding). Nice range of small city EV`s though

The one on the far left looks like an electrical successor to the Peel P50.

Looks like Phillips, Braun and Panasonic mens electric razors. The far left a Revlon Ladies razor for smooth legs. Are these all cordless?
