As part of its Z.E. electric vision back in 2009, Renault revealed a fun-loving four-wheeled compact EV designed as a nimble city getabout. Now company offshoot Mobilize is heading to the 2022 Paris Motor Show with an updated model called the Duo.

Renault has revealed the Hippie Caviar Motel in its entirety. Just looking at the camper concept makes us want to call out sick and head for the mountains. It homes in on solo nomadism with a single-person floor plan meant to live, work and play.

Some of the best outdoor adventure trips take place not in fancy five-star spa hotels but in the most basic hostels and cabins. That type of trip guides the design of the all-electric Hippie Caviar Motel mini-camper concept Renault teased on Tuesday.

After launching its Trafic SpaceNomad camper van in Switzerland in 2020, Renault brings the camper to additional European markets. The latest SpaceNomad offers an attractive alternative to the VW California, complete with solar power and four beds.

The iconic Renault 5 compact car debuted back in 1972, and remained in production until 1996. Now, to celebrate the model's 50th anniversary, Renault has unveiled a one-off electric version of the automobile – it's called the Renault 5 Diamant.

Many of us will be familiar with package deliveries by truck, some may get their hot meals delivered by cargo bike and a few might even have had meds arrive by drone. Now Renault has combined all three for the E-Tech Master OptiModale concept.

Hydrogen combustion engines are inefficient, costly to maintain and worse for the environment than fuel cell or battery powertrains. But they're also noisy and fun, so automakers are starting to pitch them as a greener option for die-hard motorheads.

This year marks 60 years since Renault launched the Quatrelle, and though the company has been celebrating all year, a collaboration with design studio TheArsenale to build a flying car concept is arguably its best birthday present to itself yet.

Renault previously tipped plans to explore the distant RVing future with the Hippie Caviar concept camper van. Now it is bringing focus back to the present with the Trafic SpaceNomad, a classic pop-top camper van set to launch around Europe.

The growth of pandemic camping has seen first-timers flock to the RV lifestyle, and Renault looks to appeal directly to the subset of jet-setters-turned-RVers. The new Hippie Caviar Hotel arrives as part hippie bus and part high-end glamping service.

Renault Trucks is the latest manufacturer to lay out its electrification pledge: it'll have an electric option in every segment from 2023, aiming for 35 percent electric sales in 2030, and it'll ditch fossil fuels and decarbonize completely by 2040.

Between Zoes, Twizys, Kangoos, Masters and Twingos, some 20 percent of Renault's vehicle sales since 2010 have already been fully electric, and the brand is planning to step things up into the performance sector with a brand new electric Megane hatch.
