Renault Egeus Concept Photo Gallery
With Renault's lineup primarily comprised of passenger cars, space vans, and commercial-type vehicles such as the Kangoo, there is plenty of space to slot in a crossover or small SUV, and this handsome Egeus concept marks Renault's most recent exploration of that theme. more

Renault Zoe Concept Photo Gallery
The Zoe is the sort of whimsical concept that makes the Geneva Motor Show so much fun. The diminutive city car is based on the precept that, on average, cars carry only 1.4 people per trip, but that consumers are nonetheless put off by the perceived limitations of two-seat cars. more

Renault Wind Concept Photo Gallery
Renault's chief designer, the prolific and gifted Patrick Le Quément, charmed Geneva showgoers again this year with the artful Wind roadster concept, an exercise in simplicity and joie d'vivre. Behind the car's wraparound glass is a clever 2+1 seating arrangement: Nestled behind the front seats is a saddle of sorts for an occasional (or masochistic) third fun-seeker. The Wind employs a 136-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, paired with a six-speed sequential manual transmission. more

Renault Sport Clio V6 Photo Gallery
The Renault Sport Clio V6 is just like any other pint-size hatchback clogging the streets of Europe, except for a few details: A 3.0-liter V-6 engine sits where the back seat is supposed to be, making 251 horsepower and driving the rear wheels; the car rolls on frame-filling eighteen-inch wheels; air intakes have sprouted all over the body; and it wears more spoilers, skirts, and flippers than most racing cars. more

The autocross-ready Be Bop (above), carries a Renault Sport badge and features front-wheel-drive, a six-speed sequential manual gearbox, and a 225-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter in-line four.

2002 Renault Avantime Photo Gallery
Paris When French automaker Renault tossed a lifeline to a floundering Nis-san in 1999, rumors began to circulate about inter-brand product sharing, none more outlandish than the suggestion that an oddity called the Avantime would someday sail to the United States wearing an Infiniti badge. The car, revealed at the '99 Geneva motor show, employed Renault design chief Patrick Le Quement's radical "Coupespace" concept. (In America, such one-box architecture has a less avant-garde descript more

2001 Renault Sport Clio V6 Photo Gallery
Lyon, France - Imagine a widebody Dodge Neon coupe. Mid-engined. Rear-wheel drive. No longer powered by a humble four-cylinder but by a V-6 borrowed from the 300M. Get the picture? That's essentially the transformation Renault's Clio econo-hatch has undergone at the hands of Renault Sport and Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR). The result is the awesome Clio V6, son of the Renault 5 Turbo 2 and Renault's newest racer for the road. more
