New Renault Espace Rush Special Edition
Published: 26th November 2005
Lower prices do not mean giving up the luxuries
Based on the entry-level Authentique, Espace Rush comes packed full of core features included on all versions of Espace such as air conditioning with separate temperature controls for the driver and front passenger (again another reason why Espace is a cut above normal cars), 60W single CD RDS radio with six speakers and fingertip remote control, electric / heated door mirrors, height / reach adjustable steering wheel, trip computer, automatic parking brake for easier hill starts, ABS with EBD (Electronic Brake Distribution) and Brake Assist, ESP, anti-whiplash front head rests and R.A.I.D. (Renault Anti Intruder Device) locking the doors on the move.
New Espace Rush also comes with following equipment as standard; 17” alloy wheels, extra tinted glass on the rear windows and tailgate, roof bars / rear roof spoiler, leather steering wheel, and ‘Sam’ upholstery in carbon with carbon/ beige trim.
New ‘Slide and Lock’ seat rail system
New Espace Rush has in its core features the innovative new ‘Slide and lock’ seat rail system which has a rail and runner system allowing the sliding seats to automatically and simply ‘click’ into position.
Seats can be easily placed into the floor runners at any location on the rail - they no longer have to be attached onto hooks in the runners - and then slid into their ideal position. The seats can also be tilted or removed easily in a simple operation using the pull hooks on the rear of the seats - making it easy for third row passengers to exit the vehicle themselves.
This is all in addition to the existing outstanding features of the Espace seats - integrated seatbelts for each individual seat (so you can move the seat exactly where you want in and the passengers are still in the best level of safety & comfort) and the almost endless configuration options to allow you to travel however you wish.
Option packs
The Espace Rush Special Edition comes with five seats as standard as some customers use Espace as a large estate car. Two extra seats are an option. Curtain airbags cover the first two rows in the Rush, however if your family is bigger than the average 2.4 children and you need the full seven seats there is the value for money option pack, created exclusively for the Rush, the ‘Family Pack’. This includes two additional rear seats and two row three curtain airbags at £600.
The second option pack available on Rush is the ‘Driving Pack’ which includes Parking proximity sensor, cruise control with speed limiter and tyre pressure monitor all grouped together at just £550.
There are three individual options offered with Espace Rush which are a panoramic fixed glass roof (£750), metallic paint all round including body coloured bumpers and side mouldings (£500) and lateral/ thorax airbags for row two and six rear sunblinds (£450).
New Espace Rush Special Edition is on sale now with the petrol 2.0 16V 140 at £18,995 and the 1.9 dCi 120 at £19,995 offering families all the space, practicality and comfort of a luxury MPV at a value for money price.
