"French automaker Renault has unveiled a new single-seater electric concept car
that it hopes will set a new record for efficiency.
The Renault
Filante Record 2025, on show at the Rétromobile motor show in
Paris from 5 to 9 February 2025, has been designed [to] maximise energy
efficiency and to set records for power consumption and range.
With an 87kWh battery – the same as is used in the company’s Scenic E-Tech
electric – and measuring 5.12 metres long and only 1.19 metres wide, and
concept car was inspired by iconic Renault concept cars such as the
40 CV des
Records built in 1925, the
Nervasport des Records built in 1934, and the
Etoile Filante built in 1956.
Unlike some concept cars, Renault specifically note in their press release that
the
Filante Record 2025 “is not only an exercise in style, but also a
demonstration of exceptional aerodynamic efficiency and cutting-edge
technology” and will head out in the first half of the year to attempts to
break the efficiency records."
