The new Renault 4 JP4x4 is an open-air electric concept that harks back to old and new Renaults. Its a fresh-take on what an adventure-focused EV can look and feel like, with openwork doors and roof, and all-wheel drive capability, which the production Renault 4 E-Tech doesn't have.

The interior details are great, too. It has bucket seats that hark back to the “Egyptian Mummy” seats on Renaults of the 1970s. The center console appears to have hooks finished in orange, which you could use to tie down items mounted on the roof. At the rear, there are mounting points for skateboards and, visibly enough, room for small picnic items. And it retains the dual screens and the dashboard layout from the production model.

It's only a show-car and Renault doesn't plan on a production version anytime soon.
