It has always been interesting to observe the new vehicles<\/a> we don\u2019t get in the United States. Renault<\/a> has been responsible for several \u201cforbidden fruit\u201d models over the years, and its latest EV tease may revive another. The French automaker recently teased a new electric crossover<\/a> that bears a striking resemblance to one of its most iconic historical models. Renault will reveal the new EV<\/a> on October 17 at the Paris Motor Show<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Keen-eyed observers will immediately pick up the Renault 4 vibes here, and the automaker confirms the EV will be a \u201cnew take\u201d on the long-running model. Initially designed with a directive to be \u201cless ugly than the 2CV,\u201d the Renault 4 went on to take second place in the 1979 Paris-Dakar and was sold in some countries until 1994. It remained France\u2019s best-selling car<\/a> until 2010.<\/p>\n

With such a storied nameplate<\/a> as its inspiration, the electrified Renault 4 will likely offer plenty of not-for-America tech and functionality. That said, as the third member of the Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance, Renault has access to shared technologies and components it otherwise might not. For example, the new Megane ETech EV rides on the same CMF-EV platform that underpins the Nissan<\/a> Ariya.<\/p>\n

Renault calls itself<\/a> the \u201cleader of electric mobility in Europe\u201d and says its EVs accounted for almost 15% of all electrics sold in Europe in 2021. Beyond the new Megane ETech Electric model, Renault offers a smaller Zoe electric hatchback and two electric delivery vans. Dacia, Renault\u2019s budget brand, also sells a cute electric crossover.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
