Renault releases stunning vision for F1 in 2027

Renault has released a concept car at the Shanghai Motor Show to illustrate its vision of Formula One in ten years' time.

Red Bull, Ferrari and McLaren have all produced similar concepts in recent years with the aim of showcasing the potential look and technology of future racing cars.

The Renault RS 2027 Vision features a power unit with over 1,300 horsepower, including two 250KW Energy Recovery Systems on the front and rear axles (up from the current single 120KW ERS), making the car four-wheel drive. The concept car would still feature a V6 turbo, but fuel would be limited to just 60kg for a 250km race rather than the current 105kg for a 300km race.
