Renault’s crossoverish Espace does not only reinvent the famous nameplate, it also debuts the brand’s high-end Initiale Paris signature, which will be available for the Clio as well.

Previewed by the Initiale Paris study revealed last year, the Renault Espace Initiale Paris is the range-topping model of the Espace family, featuring a distinctive appearance and more equipment compared to the standard model.

The Initiale Paris version of the new Espace is available with the exclusive Améthyste Black exterior paint and offers two trims for the interior: a graded Lune Grey/Dark Brown or simply Dark Brown finish.

Exclusive exterior design features include specific 19-inch wheels, exterior Initiale branding beneath the Renault logo and at the rear replacing the Espace badge, as well as Initiale Paris badging on the door sills.

There are many more modifications inside, where the Espace Initiale Paris gets full-grain Nappa leather upholstery available in either Dark Brown or with a colour gradient from Lune Grey to Brown, heated and massaging front seats with 10-way adjustment, “Relax” head rests for first and second row seats, seated second row seats (optional), Nappa leather-trimmed steering wheel, door inserts and arm rests, dashboard with visible stitching, extra-tinted, laminated side windows incorporating sun blinds, decorative trim at the back of the front head rests and Initiale Paris badging.

Equipment-wise, the Renault Espace Initiale Paris gets a BOSE premium sound system with BOSE Surround Sound and the Visio System Pack for enhanced visibility including front-facing camera, lane departure warning, automatic lights, road sign recognition and over speed warning. There’s also an Advanced Safety Pack which includes safety distance warning and emergency brake assist.

The new Renault Espace Initiale Paris is available with only the most powerful engines in the lineup: the Energy TCe 200 EDC petrol unit and the Energy dCi 160 EDC diesel.

Furthermore, owners of Initiale Paris models (which also include the Clio) will benefit from a dedicated call center, a special reserved area in showrooms and various service packages.
