Renault 4 Savane 4x4 Concept debuts with all-wheel drive at French Open

Renault 4 Savane Concept Unveiled: Renault introduced the 4 Savane 4x4 Concept at the Roland-Garros French Open. This all-electric vehicle, based on the Renault 4 EV hatchback, brings back the Savane name. It features a dual-motor system for all-wheel drive, boosting off-road ability. Built on the AmpR Small platform, it shares roots with the Renault 5 and Nissan Micra. Off-Road Upgrades: The Savane concept has 15 mm more ground clearance and 10 mm wider tracks at the front and rear than the standard Renault 4. It uses 18-inch “Savane” wheels with Goodyear UltraGrip Performance+ 225/55 tires. These upgrades help it tackle muddy, snowy, or rough terrain with better agility and grip. Unique Look: The concept keeps the Renault 4’s design, with round headlamps and a black front panel edged by light strips. It features Jade Green paint, glossy black bumpers, flared wheel arches, and side skirts. The black roof has rails and a pixelated fabric for a distinct, modern appearance. Stylish Interior: Inside, the Savane matches the standard Renault 4’s layout but uses Deep Brown textile. Seats have a houndstooth pattern and quilted number 4s on backrests. The dashboard, also in brown with top-stitching, features a backlit 4Savane logo, adding a refined, adventurous vibe. Power Boost: A second electric motor on the rear axle gives the Savane permanent all-wheel drive. Renault hasn’t shared power details, but it surpasses the standard model’s 148 hp and 181 lb-ft. The standard Renault 4 with a 52-kWh battery hits 0-62 mph in 8.2 seconds. Battery Questions: Renault hasn’t confirmed the Savane’s battery, but it might use the standard model’s 52-kWh pack, offering a 249-mile WLTP range. A 40-kWh option is possible but less likely. The dual motors may reduce range compared to the single-motor standard Renault 4. Savane Legacy: The Savane name, tied to exploration since the 1950s, returns after 30 years. First seen on rugged Renault 4 models, it was a relaxed adventurer by 1986. This concept, aimed at “gentleman explorers,” blends retro style with electric power for modern off-road journeys. Production Chance: Renault calls the Savane 4x4 Concept a vision of potential, with no production plans confirmed. The earlier 4ever Trophy concept had similar goals. If built, it would likely cost more than the standard Renault 4’s €31,490 in France, given its advanced features.
