The Renault Twingo is a small city car that Renault introduced in 1992, styled with a distinctive rounded, one box silhouette that gave it unusually generous interior space for its compact exterior footprint. Launched initially with a simplified single specification strategy to keep costs low, it became one of Renault's most recognizable small cars and has continued across later generations as a core entry in the company's city car lineup.
