Renault Wind

The Renault Wind is a two-seat convertible roadster with front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout that Renault built from 2010 to 2013. It began as a 2+1 concept shown at the 2004 Paris Motor Show, and Renault announced production on 2 February 2010 and showed the production car at the Geneva Motor Show that March. The production car is heavily based on the Twingo in size, stance and details. Renault bought the rights to the technology behind Ferrari's Superamerica roof and adapted it, giving the Wind a single-piece metal roof that rotates 180 degrees rearward in twelve seconds. It had a straight-four petrol engine, a turbocharged 1.2 litre of 100 PS or a 1.6 litre of 135 PS shared with the Twingo Renault Sport. Renault withdrew it from the United Kingdom in February 2012 and from mainland Europe in June 2013.
