I love the looks of both of these, they’re brilliant, just had a new Twingo behind me on my drive home today. My guess is that these appeal to my generation who were kids when things like the original Renault 5 were around. My dad drove us around in a Renault 4 when we were kids…
I would agree but they’re enormous! The new Twingo is 30 cm longer and 9 cm wider than the original although an electric car has fewer parts and can be more compact. I get that crash safety adds some bulk but without the danger of the engine in front where does all the extra length come from? It’s just a bad decision.
Sometimes concept cars manage to get through relatively unscathed.
The Renault 5 and the Renault Twingo revivals spring to mind.
