Many years ago, the French car industry would routinely release some of the most remarkable vehicles. Today, the government backed industry that consists of PSA & Renault is but a shadow of what it used to be, and produces poorly assembled and strangely styled rip-offs of Volkswagen's latest people car models. It is not surprising that the French auto industry is in such shambles, given the country's dramatic switch from true leaders like Charlemagne, Jeanne d'Arc and Charles de Gaulle to weaselly ninnies like Nicolas Sarkozy and François Hollande. Back during the presidency of monsieur de Gaulle, Renault introduced a car unlike any had seen before and it was likely the first small SUV/crossover vehicle produced in a segment that is now jam-packed full of offerings.
