Renault Modus: restyling

This week's issue of Auto-Plus magazine shows a CGI of the restyled version of the Renault Modus expected for late 2006/beginning 2007. The Modus is a commercial failure. But it is not alone... when small people carriers like the Renault Scénic started enjoying great success, European manufacturers went into a crazy passion for even smaller people carriers such as the Modus or the Opel Meriva. All of these cars failed essentially because such class of cars should not exist. Anyway, now these models slowly agonize between restylings and incentives.

The restyling of the Modus will only feature small modifications (to keep tooling costs low). You may notice that the magazine article is a bit bitter on the car. It's a funny thing, but although being a French magazine Auto-Plus hates French cars!
