The styling looks fantastic in my opinion and this is thanks to the front and back tracks being 60mm and 45mm wider respectively.
The rear of the car doesn’t carry the Renault name, nor the RS flag logo of yesteryear. In comes a new double diamond insignia, inspired by the logo that adorned the Gordini R12’s steering wheel in the 1970s.
