Press Kit Frankfurt En IAA 2011 Frankfurt International Motorshow September 13, 2011 Renault has chosen the 64 th International Frankfurt Motor Show to take the wraps off FRENDZY, the fourth concept car to illustrate the brand's new strategy launched in 2010. After the notion of ‘love at first sight’ expressed by DeZir, discovering the world with Captur and the establishment of a family with R-Space, FRENDZY presents the world of work. FRENDZY is a multi-purpose commercial business electric vehicle which doubles up perfectly as a comfortable car. Renault has chosen Frankfurt to show how concepts go on to reach the showroom. New Twingo is the first Renault production car to feature some of the styling cues showcased by the brand's recent concept cars. Thanks to its attractive, expressive front end and extensive personalisation programme, New Twingo is sure to appeal to an even broader audience. This practical and compact city car boasts record cabin space and is at home both in town and on the motorway. At the same time, the fuel consumption of its punchy engines has come down even further. On the subject of engines, the Frankfurt Motor Show provides Renault with the ideal opportunity to reveal the latest developments in its powertrain strategy. Following the recent launches of the Energy dCi 130 and 2.0 Energy 130/150 engines, the Energy family is set to expand further still with two new powerplants: the Energy TCe 115 petrol engine and the Energy dCi 110, an extensively enhanced version of the current 1.5 dCi diesel. The Renault Energy range is a case study in how innovation can work not only for performance, but also for low fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions. In its " Renault 2016 - Drive the Change " plan, Renault has effectively committed to reducing its carbon footprint by 10 percent between now and 2013, and by a further 10 per cent between 2013 and 2016. In addition to its ongoing work on internal combustion engines, Renault will be the only car manufacturer to launch a comprehensive range of affordable electric vehicles. With a month to go before the first Renault Z.E. (Zero Emissions) vehicles are seen in showrooms and on the road, the necessary systems are already up and running to ensure a seamless shift to electric mobility. Today, Renault is delivering on its promises. On the quality front, we have a range of vehicles which ADAC describes as 'good' or even 'excellent'. At the same time, we are introducing two new Energy petrol and diesel engines which benefit from our experience in F1 racing. They will enable us to propose vehicles that boast unrivalled CO 2 emissions and fuel consumption in their respective segments. This year, we are also launching our first three electric vehicles which customers can already reserve. Renault has kept its promise, too, with regard to styling, with a new concept car and New Twingo, the first production car to be inspired by our new design strategy. And this is just the beginning of a new era for Renault: in 2012, we are preparing to launch nine new models and ten restyled vehicles." Carlos Tavares, Renault Chief Operating Officer. 2 CONTENTS RENAULT'S NEW DESIGN STRATEGY: FROM CONCEPT TO REALITY …….

FRENDZY is an original and innovative vehicle which takes us into an area that is vital to Renault: the world of light commercial vehicles." Laurens Van Den Acker (Director of Industrial Design, Renault). FRENDZY, A MULTI-FACETED FRIEND After the notion of ‘love at first sight’ expressed by DeZir , discovering the world with Captur and the establishment of a family with R-Space, FRENDZY presents the world of work. The latest concept car to be produced under the leadership of Laurens Van Den Acker, it is the perfect multi-talented vehicle. As a commercial business vehicle which can double up perfectly as a comfortable passenger car, it meets the requirements of business users on the one hand and those of families on the other. "FRENDZY is the must-have vehicle for flexibility and versatility, two qualities which are in tune with today's world. It is efficient and modern as a work tool, yet sporty and warmly welcoming for the family." Axel Breun (Director of Concept and Show Car Design) On the outside… On the passenger’s side, there’s no centre pillar; just one conventional door and one sliding side door which incorporates a 37-inch widescreen display. This is the world of work . The driver’s side, complete with centre-opening doors represents the world of the family . Ease of loading and ease of entry go without saying in both worlds. "The concept of an asymmetric body design was the most logical way to express this vehicle’s dual role," says Exterior Designer, Deyan Denkov . "From the very start, I wanted to move away from the traditional format for business vehicles and, in doing so, show that this type of vehicle can also be more emotional, more dynamic and more attractive. I took 4 4 inspiration from a wide variety of sources, including unconventionally shaped aircraft such as the Airbus Beluga and the Antonov 224." On weekdays , FRENDZY is a vehicle that adapts to the requirements of the business user, with a large external screen that can display information or advertising messages, either whilst stationary or on the move. Come the weekend , the car becomes a family vehicle, with a comfortable passenger seat and, in the rear, a big bench seat. Children can watch a film or play games on the touch-sensitive pad which slides out from the back of the driver’s seat. They can even draw on a special slate integrated into the sliding door. The driver, likewise, can adapt the vehicle to his or her needs. In ‘work’ mode , the rear-view mirrors sit upright and the interior lighting is green; in ‘family’ mode , the mirrors swivel round to the horizontal position and the interior is bathed in a radiant orange ambience. Coloured lights in the headlamps and tail lights provide an external indication of the mode in which the vehicle is running. With FRENDZY, Renault – as Europe’s LCV market leader for the past 13 years – once again showcases the practicality, modularity and versatility that are already hallmarks of Kangoo, Trafic and Master. On the inside… The driver’s environment is designed along the theme of a futuristic ‘work bench’. Green light emanating from the dashboard brings this smooth and organic architecture to life. These lights signify the ‘work’ mode and tie in with the colour displayed on the exterior of the vehicle. In the ‘family’ mode , the atmosphere becomes warmer as the green lights turn orange – a subtle reference to the colour of Renault's previous concept car, the family-oriented R-Space. Dominant throughout is the sense that the interior forms a cosy cabin which echoes the simple yet practical world of camping, and this is further reflected by extensive use of wood. Indeed, as much a symbol of warmth as it is of strength and timelessness, wood forms a link between the two modes. "Our research into materials centred on the area where the technology of industry meets the cosy softness of the family nest," notes Antoine Génin, Director of Interior Design, Colours and Materials. "This modern combination of wood and metal picks up on Renault’s strategic design values of simplicity, sensuousness and warmth." 5 5 On a practical level, the fabric roof adapts itself to the shape of bulky objects, while magnetic fixings allow the load to be secured to the floor, and modular stowage systems are a practical bonus for business users. The single-piece rear seat is integrated into the floor and the front seat folds forward in order to free up space. Interior designer, Ana Zadnik: "The interior of the vehicle reflects its double identity: on the one hand, it provides a roomy, uncluttered load carrying space and, on the other, it can become a space that’s fun and interactive which seats up to four people. Sections of the dashboard and rear door panels are extruded to form recesses that can serve to stow a variety of accessories, again making life easier for the user." AN INNOVATIVE OFFICE ON WHEELS The user-friendly layout of the driver’s environment and the tablet turn FRENDZY into a truly interactive and communicative tool.
