The Renault Twizy, a pioneer of electric mobility
Launched in 2012, the Renault Twizy represented a radically new approach to urban mobility. This electric quadricycle, the result of years of research and development, embodied Renault's futuristic vision to address the challenges of urban traffic and growing environmental concerns.
With its bold design and minimalist construction, the Twizy offered an original alternative to traditional transportation. Completely electric, silent, and compact, it provided autonomy perfectly suited for daily urban commutes. Its open body and tandem seating for two passengers made it a unique vehicle in the automotive market.
The commercial success of the Twizy, particularly in Europe, demonstrated the public's appetite for alternative mobility solutions. It paved the way for a new generation of urban electric vehicles, confirming Renault's avant-garde positioning in this area.
Renault and electric innovation
At the time of the Twizy's creation, Renault was undergoing a major transformation under the leadership of Carlos Ghosn and the Renault-Nissan alliance. The diamond brand took the bold gamble to invest heavily in electric technology, long before it became mainstream.
With over a century of innovations, Renault relied on its technical heritage to reinvent the automobile. From the early Renaults of the early 20th century to modern vehicles, the brand has always been able to anticipate societal changes. The Twizy fit into this lineage, combining French engineering expertise with a forward-looking vision of sustainable mobility.
This period also marked a renewal of Renault's design, with bold creations that broke established codes. The Twizy perfectly embodied this creative philosophy, demonstrating that innovation could also mean emotion and driving pleasure.
A star of cinema and social media
The Renault Twizy quickly surpassed its status as just a vehicle to become a cultural phenomenon. Its futuristic silhouette and innovative concept made it a favorite on film and television sets seeking to evoke a near future or an assumed modernity.
Even more surprising, the Twizy went viral on social media, thanks to humorous videos featuring its atypical driving and quirky design. Influencers and celebrities alike adopted this electric vehicle for urban commuting, contributing to its trendy and eco-friendly image.
The absence of doors in the Twizy, initially seen as a constraint, became its signature. This uniqueness inspired a whole ecosystem of accessories and customizations, transforming each Twizy into a unique expression of its owner's personality. This customizable aspect enhanced the emotional attachment to this unconventional vehicle.
The Twizy also marked automotive history as one of the first vehicles to offer battery rental, an innovative business model that has since been embraced throughout the electric vehicle industry. This revolutionary approach demonstrated Renault's ability to rethink not just the product, but also its business model.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to understand the scales of miniatures?
Scale indicates the reduction ratio between the real car and the miniature. For example, at 1:43 scale, each centimeter on the miniature corresponds to 43 centimeters on the real vehicle.
Concretely, a 1/18 scale Ferrari model is approximately 25-30 cm long, while in 1/43 scale it measures approximately 10 cm.
What scales are available?
Our model cars are mainly offered in 1/43, 1/24, 1/18 and 1/87 (HO) scales. The scale is always indicated in the product sheet.
The smaller the second number, the larger the model car (e.g. 1/18 is larger than 1/43).
Does the model car come with protection?
Yes, each model car is systematically delivered in its protective box. This box preserves the collectible value and protects your model car from dust and shocks.
