Renault Initiale Paris stars at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show

It may seem like a strange idea for Renault to launch its Initiale Paris premium sub-brand at a German motor show, but it could turn out to be quite an astute move. The French brand is hoping to take on the Germans with Initiale Paris, so showcasing this rather wonderful concept in Frankfurt is a clear signal of intent. Renault says this Initiale Paris concept previews the next generation Espace, but we can't help but see a massive dollop of Renault Avantime when we take a wander around the car.

Renault at Geneva Motor Show: Renault Wind

The Renault Wind gets its first public airing at Geneva The Renault Wind gets its first public airing at Geneva Last month Renault revealed that the Twingo CC we were expecting to make an appearance would – but as the Renault Wind.

2015 Ford Mustang will perch atop Empire State Building

So, you might guess Ford would use one of those super cranes to get the car up there, but even the best portable units can only go up 50 stories or so; the observation deck at the Empire State Building is on the 86th floor.
