These aren’t as exciting as the 1994 Espace F1 Minivan.
Renault has taken the idea of a special edition up to new heights by giving the Kangoo and Trafic the Formula Edition in the United Kingdom. Renault Pro+, the preferred shop for professionals, has signed a deal to become the official logistics partner of the F1 team. What better way to celebrate this tie-up than with a trio of F1-inspired vans?
They all share the Yellow Sirius accents from the R.S 17 racing car. These accents are currently being used in F1 season and can be combined with a Pearlescent Black primary color or a Star Grey. This same theme is carried over to the predominantly black alloy wheels, with the contrasted yellow cap.
Although the Formula Edition is far from the 1994 Espace F1 Concept, it’s still a great way to spice up an otherwise dull vehicle that is primarily used for work.
Renault has yet to reveal the interiors of the Formula Edition for Trafic. However, it states that the Luxe Pack includes a Luxe Pack which adds goodies such as a leather-wrapped knob, gloss black air vent surrounds and chrome door handles. There is also a satin finish for radio controls and closed storage on the dash. The Master pack includes chrome instrument dial surrounds and satin air vents. It also has a more luxurious center console.
The Kangoo and Trafic both have leather steering wheels, and special floor mats are also available. The three LCVs are based on the Business+ trim. This means that the equipment list includes manual AC (with pollen filter), Bluetooth, USB connectivity, DAB digital radio and a multi-functional tripcomputer.
The vans can be ordered starting today in the U.K. See the press release for more details on pricing.
