The future Megane, Laguna, Scenic and Espace are emphatically styled differently.
That says Anthony Lo, Head of Design at Renault, car news from Autocar. In 2011 the French brands R-Space Concept at the Geneva Motor Show stand.
This study had a taste of the new Scenic and was very well received by the audience. According Lo Renault can not ignore, and so we will probably look back on such a design the following midi-MPV Renault.
Struggle
When the successor of the current Megane appears on the market, it must be able to compete with the cheaper versions of the German premium C segment. According Lo goes especially in the interior work be made at a higher quality.
At least, there should be similar. He speaks of a greater perception of quality required for a piece of the premium C-segment to pie. Lo stressed that the Megane is not growing bigger, because the Megane as affordable volume model too large a role has to undergo major changes.
Laguna
The successor of the Laguna remains a four-door sedan, but with an eccentric twist. According to Lo Renault something unexpected with the middle class out of it. Lo believes that the appearance of the current Laguna reason is that the model does not dominate the charts.
"It is the right car with the wrong clothes." According to Lo, people are impressed by the qualities of the car, but he reflects on his looks not the class of a car in that market segment.
Espace
Also, the design chief an open book on a new Espace. The current model is running again since 2003 and it has recently facelift. That does not mean that the French colossus needs replacement.
Or the next Espace again in the form of a full size MPV will appear, is still questionable. Lo says that Renault was not aware that buyers of a large MPV switch to a crossover. "Its time for a new idea," says the designer.
Thus he suggests that the following Renault Espace with a slap of a crossover in the hodgepodge segment comes into play.
