RENAULTEspace 2014 - 2019

　　This is one of the best-known MPVs made in Europe: the Renault Espace. Its origins are back in the '80s and the French carmaker became very good in building it for the European roads. In 2014 it showed the fifth generation of its biggest car, which became more like a luxurious MPV crossover than a regular family carrier.

　　The design is far from what we've seen before in the Renault range. The Espace is built on a new platform developed together with its alliance partners from Nissan. Compared with its predecessors, the new vehicle is available in only one length of 4857 mm (15.9 ft). On the previous generation it used to be available in two wheelbase options. This one is available with 5 or 7 seat options.

　　Despite the big dimensions, the Espace is available only with four cylinder units. The 160 hp and 200 hp diesel engines have a 2.0-liter displacement, while the gasoline turbocharged unit is a 1.8 liter and offers 225 hp. The transmission for all variants is a 7-speed double-clutch unit.

　　The handling is eased by an all-wheel-steering system, which allows the rear wheels to steer or counter-steer to ease parking or to handle better at higher speeds.

　　The interior is part of the high-end luxury segment, with leather upholstery and an infotainment system caller R-LINK.
