Renault calls Symbioz a 'sexy box'. You might not see it quite like that, but this car does bring a dash of extra style to the Qashqai sector. And, as the brand says, should be a 'very good answer for a lot of families'. There's an emphasis on practicality here that the company says evokes the spirit of some of its past family models, the 16 saloon of the 1960s and the Espace of the 1980s.
Interestingly, Renault is also implying that choosing a Symbioz Hybrid might be a more sensible choice than an electric vehicle right now. Paula Fabregat, the marque's small car design chief, calls it 'more rational and less emotional than an EV'. We'd be minded to agree - and you might too.
