RENAULT SPACE. Renault will officially present the new Renault Espace in the spring of 2023. Gone is the minivan, the Espace is indeed becoming a family SUV, as evidenced by the first photos unveiled.
Space is going to make its revolution! Renault’s historic minivan has lived but is not quite dead. While Renault was suspected of wanting to abandon the famous surname of its family car (like the Twingo which is about to disappear), the Espace will finally have a second life… under the skin of an SUV. The French brand no longer really had a choice. His decision not to decide in 2015 during the presentation of the previous generation will not have seduced. The crossover, which took on some attributes of the SUV while gentrifying with posh finishes and chrome galore, simply didn’t meet its audience. The Espace has been devoured by 7-seater family SUVs such as the Peugeot 5008, the Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace and the Skoda Kodiaq. Renault is finally transforming its Espace into a family SUV, which will be offered in 5 and 7-seater versions. While waiting for its official presentation in “spring 2023” according to the brand, here is everything we already know about this new Espace 2023.
Renault unveiled the first photos of its new Renault Espace in mid-February 2023, thus confirming the upcoming launch of this new family vehicle and the renewal of the “Espace” name. No big surprise in view of the teasing photos where we guess a family SUV silhouette and lights close to the Austral SUV, presented in 2022 and replacing the Kadjar. To find out more, we will have to wait until spring 2023, the announced date of the official presentation of this new Renault Espace.
Renault has transformed its historic minivan into a family SUV. The brand has already formalized the fact that this new generation will be “a large 5 and 7-seater SUV”. In terms of design, the first teaser visuals unveiled in mid-February 2023 suggest a large glass surface stretched towards the rear and a spoiler that extends the roof for a more dynamic style. We are far from the van or van aspect of the old minivans. This Space will also be smaller, Renault formalizes a more compact Space of 14 centimeters while guaranteeing superior habitability up to the third row. Mystery for now on what appears to be a tour de force.
The new Renault Espace will be officially unveiled “in the spring of 2023” announced the French brand. We can therefore expect to see it on trial from the start of the 2023 school year for a start of marketing at the end of 2023.
