Renault has unveiled the first details of the exterior design of the Renault 4 E-Tech Electric ahead of the reveal on 14 October at the Paris Motor Show. The model aims to remain true to the original’s concept of versatility. And, just like its ancestor, it is a car in step with the times: 100% electric and super technological. At 4.14 metres long, it is built on the AmpR Small platform, an excellent compromise between interior space, agility and comfort. The model will be produced in France, in Maubeuge, and will be available at dealers in 2025.
The grille has an uninterrupted illuminated surround surrounding the LED headlights positioned at either end. Renault 4 is the first vehicle from the French brand to feature a backlit logo in the centre of the front, immediately reminiscent of its 1960s predecessor, but with a technological, modern and original aura. Many remember the three-part pill-shaped rear lights of the 4L. They are still there and still upright, but have been enhanced with today’s technology and revamped with contemporary aesthetic cues.
In some versions of the Renault 4 E-Tech, as in some of its namesake spinoffs, you can travel with the wind in your hair. The fabric roof opens fully and the feeling of freedom is unparalleled. Retractable fabric roof. Also reminiscent of the plastic shielding of later generations of the 4L, the sides of the new Renault 4 E-Tech feature three sculpted parallel lines extending from the bodywork.
