Unveiled at the eighth Paris Automobiles Classiques and Louis Vuitton competition in Paris.
A clear expression of Renault’s ambitions in the luxury car bracket, and a sign of its intentions to return to the fundamental tenets of the French coach-building tradition - luxury and refinement, power with distinction. Initiale is first and foremost an elegant and original car underpinned by advanced technological development and innovative design.
The Initiale was developed for production and became the Renault Vel Satis, launched in 2002.
Initiale was a design study of a luxury car. Patrick Le Quement features:
"Passenger space treated like a living area, two lightning wells, four armchairs, panoramic glazed roof, central console for showing films and video clips on laser disc, opening dashboard with controls for hi-fi system, air conditioning, driving aids and telephone, permanent all wheel drive plus advanced braking and suspension systems."
Initiale is powered by a 3,5 litre V10 engine coupled to an automatic clutch and sequential six speed gearbox.
"Люксовый" автомобиль от Рено. Роскошь в оснащении, начиная от анатомических кожанных сидений с кожанными подлокотниками и закнчивая экслюзивной hi-fi стерео-видео системой. Автомобиль приводиться в движение фантастическим 10-ти цилиндровым двигателем объемом 3,5 литра.
Все ведь помнят одну из самых спорных машин современности — Renault Vel Satis, выпускавшуюся с 2002 по 2009 годы? Так вот изначальная задумка была еще смелее!
Представленный в 1995 году большой хэтчбек Initiale поражал не только дизайном, но еще и технической начинкой: под капотом у него — формульный V10. Серийный Vel Satis получит только «четверки» и «шестерки».
