The Renault Ellypse showcases Renault's 'Touch Design', first seen on the Talisman concept. According to Renault, "aggression is banished from the soft yet structured forms to create a friendly personality, while the deliberately minimalist interior radiates soothing vibes."

The Ellypse concept car also illustrates Renault’s commitment to sustainable development through its environmentally-friendly design: the car’s architecture favours easy removal and recycling of components at the end of the vehicle’s life-cycle, the new-generation diesel engine reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions, and it is equipped with advanced ‘x-by-wire’ technology and 42-volt electrics.

Ellypse is a 3.9-metre long hatchback with a distinctive and friendly design. The shape of its headlamps and of the radiator grille, which incorporates the brand’s new visual identity, give it a cheerful ‘face’ whilst simple, non-aggressive contours, wrap-around windscreen and curved rear window make it hard to resist. Solar cells all along the transparent roof panel help optimise cabin air-conditioning. Ellypse’s soft and natural colour scheme mirrors its gentle forms, with blue-tinted almond for the front and rear, and ultra light blue for the doors.
