2003 Renault BeBop Concept news, pictures, and information

Be Bop SÚV and Be Bop Renault Sport are two interpretations of the compact MPV theme which, wîth their modern, rounded forms, are hard to resist. These four-metre long cars stand out for their vast glazed surface. Be Bop and Be Bop combine rounded forms wîth structured lines for greater aerodynamic efficiency. Reminiscent of a water droplet, their style suggests movement and sleekness.

Be Bop and Be Bop are one single flowing line. The shape of the front and rear wings communicates a friendly yet powerful air. Their curve is extended at the front into a panoramic windscreen that disappears into the immense glazed rood before dropping down to form the V-shaped rear window, resulting in the signature Renault rear end.

Exceptional visibility and unique brightness characterize the cabin space, which can also be configured in multiple ways. The 'Touch Design' concept encourages intuitive use of the controls and has a high level of user-friendliness.
