Renault has a habit of wowing its home crowd at the PARIS MOTOR SHOW with stunning concepts and the RENAULT TREZOR certainly fits that bill. The Trezor represents the latest chapter in the company’s design story under design boss Laurens van den Ackar.
Mostly believed that American cars had a flair for the dramatic, but the TREZOR is a slap in the face to every other electric car. Battery powered automobiles try to be everything to everyone. We hope this concept makes it to production, because it offers no apologies. The long front end is integrated with the cockpit roof in a clam shell design.
Opening to reveal luggage space ahead of the dash, the the unique composite material is made of compressed layers of ash wood. Developed by the high performance cycle builders KEIM-cycles, it allows the interior to be strong and beautiful simultaneously. Red leather and a red tinted windshield look straight out of Total Recall, in an image that might cause Elon Musk to consider the competition.
Much of the rest of Trezor’s design appears to be stunning fantasy, but with a surprising grounding in reality. Renault is unlikely ever to produce a pure GT like this – that could be the job of Alpine, eventually. But the technology underneath this driving concept (few concept cars can actually move under their own steam) is very real.
Two batteries are used to power a 350 hp motor at the rear wheels. A cockpit of carbon fiber is bonded to steel subframes for the front and rear suspension for a total weight of 3,500 lbs. The motor uses regenerative braking to extend the range, but the press release didn’t mention pricing or battery performance. Zero to 100 kph (62 mph) happens in less than four seconds, and it will be a stylish way to make an exit.
