Kaleem Askforseo said "Hi Guys Good Post.Renault has provided a preview glimpse of its new concept car, DeZir, ahead of this year’s Paris Motor Show. The new two-seater coupe features massive 21 inch wheels and a zero-emissions electric drivetrain. Entry to the vehicle is via a pair of gullwing doors, and once inside passengers are treated to a two-seater bench seat. The absence of a rear window is overcome by the fitment of two rear-facing cameras that provide the driver with a panoramic view of what is happening behind the car.Thanks for sharing this information. Thanks"
