Renault launched a second new D-segment vehicle at the Paris air show – after the Espace reboot this one was the Rafale SUV.
Rafale is a French word that evokes wind, and is also an aeronautical reference. Aviation has played an important part in Renault’s history: the Caudron-Renault Rafale, which flew at a record-breaking 445 km/h in 1934, is an example.
The automaker said the Rafale was the first production vehicle designed according to the new visual language Gilles Vidal brought in as head of design.
Features include full connectivity and a 200hp E-Tech full hybrid powertrain.
A new E-Tech 4×4 300hp powertrain was also promised.
Sales start in spring 2024.
