最近国外网站刊登了多张雷诺即将发布的2014款Espace设计草图。虽然谍照记者曾在上月拍到了第五代Espace测试照片，但由于车身进行了重度伪装，因此无法看清细节，但现在通过这些设计图，我们可以更清晰，全面的了解这款MPV的外观造型。从图片看，它采用了某些跨界车的设计元素。雷诺在去年法兰克福车展曾发布了Initiale Paris概念车，从现在发布的草图看，新车保留了概念车绝大部分时尚的设计元素。新车整体设计更显档次，更具现代感，与同级的MPV相比，新车至少在外观上属于最具新引力车型。它采用了车厂开发的CFM1平台，配备了LED前大灯（或许只有高端版本才提供），更具吸引力的大倾角前风挡与顺滑的车顶线条完美融合，而在车尾可以看到硕大尾门和双排气尾管。雷诺或许将会在10月开幕的2014年巴黎车展发布第五代Espace。

 

2014 Renault Espace leaked through patent sketches

Several patent sketches of the upcoming Renault Espace have surfaced the Internet.

 

The fifth generation of the Renault Espace has been quite shy in front of the camera since our spies caught it testing just a single time last month but now we get a better view of the revamped MPV set to feature some crossover influences. From what we see in these patent sketches it will retain most of the styling cues seen in seen in the rather impressive Initiale Paris concept exhibited last year in Frankfurt.

 

It will adopt a more upscale and modern exterior which could make it the most attractive offering in what is considered to be a bland MPV segment. Riding on the firm's new CFM1 platform, the 2014 Espace will feature LED headlights (probably on upper-spec versions), an attractive steeply raked windscreen blending nicely with the gently curved roof while at the back there will be a massive tailgate and a dual exhaust setup.

 

Renault will probably unveil the fifth-gen Espace this October at the 2014 Paris Motor Show.
