Renault presents the Renault 4 JP4x4 Concept as an open-air electric vehicle inspired by earlier Renault models. The design is a beach buggy with no windows, an Emerald Green exterior, and a bright orange interior. It is based on the production Renault 4 E-Tech, removing the roof and doors while keeping structural cross beams for rigidity. A drop-down tailgate adds pickup-like utility. The concept adds all-wheel drive by using electric motors on both axles, unlike the front-wheel-drive production car. It increases ground clearance by 15 millimeters, uses Goodyear UltraGrip tires on 18-inch wheels, and widens front and rear tracks for stability on loose surfaces.
"Renault is showcasing the versatility of its electric vehicle platform with a new open-air concept. Called the Renault 4 JP4x4 Concept, it takes cues from old and new Renault models. It's a beach buggy with all-wheel drive and no windows."
"The French automaker has basically taken the production Renault 4 E-Tech, ripped out its roof and doors, and thrown in an eye-catching Emerald Green paint and a bright orange interior. It's not a convertible, and still has structural cross beams on the roof to maintain body rigidity. Plus it sports a drop-down tailgate like a pickup truck."
"Unlike the production Renault 4 E-Tech, which is front-wheel drive, the concept here has electric motors on both axles for all-wheel drive capability. Extra 15 millimeters of ground clearance compared to the standard car, and Goodyear UltraGrip tires for 225/55 tires wrapped around 18-inch wheels should also help with improved traction on loose surfaces. Plus, it also has wider front and rear tracks for better stability and handling."
