Renault E-Space Concept: Six Seats and a Flat-Floor Cabin

Renault will present the Renault E-Space concept at the 2026 Paris Motor Show on 12 October. The electric study brings family mobility back to the centre of Renault's design brief, drawing on the Renault Espace that launched in 1984. Six individual seats provide the starting point.

Renault's 'voiture à vivre' philosophy means a 'car for living', with everyday usability guiding the design.

E-Space Dimensions: Space You Can Measure

Renault specifies a 4.70-metre body. That gives E-Space 910 mm (35.8 in) more length than the 3.79-metre Renault Twingo, suggesting scope for a different seating layout. Length alone, however, tells buyers little about third-row legroom or luggage capacity when passengers occupy every seat.

Conversions use 25.4 mm per inch. The wheel figure describes rim diameter, rather than the complete tyre's outside diameter.

Six Seats Change the Cabin Brief

Renault places six equal-sized seats across three rows on a completely flat floor. The seats can rotate slightly to ease access, while certain arrangements create a shared space around a large table. My reading: Renault wants cabin flexibility to come from seat movement and layout, giving passengers options for spending time together when parked.

Two details deserve attention:

• Passenger space: Seat count alone gives no measurement of knee clearance or usable luggage capacity.
• Display hardware: The OpenR Panorama display measures 1,130 mm wide by 110 mm high, approximately 44.5 by 4.3 inches. Renault says future upper-range electric models will adopt this cabin-width screen.
