The doors are divided into two sections. The panelled door itself is topped by a separate glazed area and, as they open, the two parts deploy in an independent movement Renault said is redolent of dragonfly wings.


A carbon arm at the rear of the doors connects them to the body structure and the system is said to ensure easy access for passengers.


Two rows of main and dipped beam lights sit on a crystal-like striated strip which fills the sidelight and daytime running light functions. The headlamps use high-performance light-emitting diodes and the foglamps also have LED technology.

Inside, a central multimedia control is coupled with a display divided into three zones. The central part displays all journey-related information (navigation, radio, music, video, Bluetooth telephone), while the screens either side show the images relayed by cameras incorporated in the exterior mirrors.


The concept is locked and unlocked using a Samsung F700 mobile phone which serves as a hands-free card and connects to the centre console.


Both rear passengers get a portable Samsung P2 audio/video multimedia player with touch screen which they can use to swap files using the mp3/video Bluetooth controls.


The four-zone climate control system allows each passenger to select temperature using controls housed either side of the dashboard or on the front seatbacks.
