Welcome to the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show!

This year the focus on the Renault stand is on design, with the unveiling of the sixth concept car in the company's life cycle series: Initiale Paris. Visitors will have the chance to admire this successor to Espace alongside the five other concept cars in the series that embodies Renault's new design strategy and the current-production models they have inspired. Other newcomers are the cars in the revamped Mégane range, which has also adopted the brand's new identity. On the Dacia stand, it's Duster that will turn all heads thanks to its more adventurous look and restyled interior. The motor sport world is also reminded, with four cars displayed on the Renault stand.









INITIALE PARIS

This concept car, that brings together a wealth of technical and creative achievements, represents the sixth stage in Renault’s life cycle series – wisdom and open-mindedness – and illustrates the brand’s expertise and the positioning it is aiming for in the premium segment.
