I revisited the motor show this afternoon and looked around the exhibits which I could not see yesterday. As too many vehicles are on the show, I will introduce only the vehicles on which I have some interests, by dividing them into a few pages of my diary. Today I will report on French vehicles.

A new Renault wagon was shown in the above three pictures. As its design was quite modern, I though the car was displayed as a reference vehicle. But I was wrong. They told me they are going to produce and sell it from the next year.

One of the specialities of the present show is that many sporty type vehicles are exhibited ( the same as in the Frankfurt show in late September, this year.) Renault is not the exception.

Peugeot 307 and 206 series brought sporty versions. Citroen C5 and C3 did the same as the former ones.

Incidentally I could take the driver seat of the new Chevrolet e-cruze displayed at the show.　And I found no display screen was installed at its dash board as shown in the bottom pictures (there may be a pop-up mechanism.)
