What's your opinion on Renault creating a whole new brand family?

>a sporty SUV
so a wagon?

Pierre, one is Beavis the other Butthead

Why couldn't they just make a regular hatchback/liftback? Why did they have to make a SoyUV?

Well, companies need to make profit.
And SUVs are very trendy right now.

>one of your neighbors
What the fuck are you on?
I think it's a personal revenge. Someone wants Alpine to be dragged in the mud.

That could be a decent looking Renault. But Alpine?

Great car to drop my only child off at tennis practice and then go to the centre of town for shopping

Although without the Alpine gimmicks it would look like Macan by Renault.

AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH LIIIIIIIIIIIIQQQQQQQQQQQUUUUUUUUUUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

>The next car of Alpine will be a sporty SUV.

No it won't.
They already explained it : They want to focus on a niche market first and competition.

>sporty
>SUV
So it's twice as sporty? Solid achievement in a vehicle which isn't sporty in it's basic design.

when will this suv madness end?

Citroen does it with DS, Peugeot will follow too i guess - rebranded shit is still shit.

Mes cotes!

looks like a knockoff macan
just like the alpine is a knockoff cayman

Front looks like a hippo, rear looks like an Audi

there is nothing sporty about suv
they are total garbage

It's Renault, one of the biggest manufacturers in the world

>turning a 700kg MR rally god into a pigfat good for nothing suv

atleast the new alpine sportscar is good

renault needs to go full madman and bring back mid engine clio

>Have one of the best comebacks ever
>Immediately fuck it up

GJ Alpeen.

>Lotus makes sport SUV
>Alpine makes sporty SUV
>Alfa Romeo makes sport SUV
>Lambo makes """"""""super sport SUV"""""""""
>Bentley makes an SUV
>Ferrari is about to make an SUV

There are no good car brands left. Only car brand whores.

>>Lotus makes sport SUV
Fuck off, there's no way this is true. Somebody please tell me this isn't true.

Suicide is the only fucking option lads.

Damn it all.

it only looks nice if they will be sold in the US.

>exotic brands cater to new money retards
Stop the fucking presses.
If it's any consolation, then there's a good probability that they're only doing this to fund development of actual sports cars.

>pic unrelated
name one brand that kept its purity then

well, that first one is a RUF, and i don't know about an aston martin SUV

honestly if it doesn't end up being a useless piece of shit,why would you mind?
it's going to give the company more money to play around with,a lot more considering that they're using an existing platform
i have enough faith in them for the result to be at least acceptable and looks like it'll have the same happy looking front end so that's something (as in the difference in looks won't be as bad as 911 to cayenne)

My bad. Thought the first one was Porsche and didn't see the other one.

>Bring Alpine back

I know they also made the new A110, but who the fuck used this?

Aston Martin have an SUV concept and RUF has done an electric Cayenne.
You forgot about Ferrari.

What's wrong with sporty SUV? It's just practical

>lifted overweight hatchback
>practical
wew

In a city it's less practical than a hatchback. In a world where road quality improves, people think that they need crossovers more than ever now.

not in Texas they don't

It's practical because you typically get more room than sedan or hatchback for storage and a high ride for fucking stupid driveways and bumpy roads

There's nothing stopping them from being decently sporty either with some good design

I forgot that American people have special needs.

Our roads are not perfect prissy faggot flat shit like European roads, yes

>more room

look pretty good

looks good too

I think the coupe will be great 2nd hand value in a few years, might get one.

>they're a big company so they dont need to make money!!

???

like a really really sad audi

literally just renault copying citroen

shit thread, they already stated that they won't make a SUV.
Nissan and Renault have already enough of that shit.

car is so nice. why is it so expensive tho?

A crossover is a lifted hatchback/wagon. An SUV isn't.

Is there going to be a Rallycross or Rally Raid program in the future? Because this thing is fucking pointless if not.
