Renault opens electric vehicle concept store in central Berlin

This new concept store, which is unique in Germany, is a partnership with local distributor Renault Autohaus Konig. It is located in Berlin's historic city centre near the Gendarmenmarkt square. The aim of the store is to engage with customers and answer frequently-asked questions about electric cars, while promoting the benefits of driving such vehicles.

Visitors can enjoy a physical and digital experience providing information about the brand's range of electric cars, charging infrastructure and charging systems, local legislation and subsidies, conditions of purchase and electric car-related services. Customers will also be able to test-drive an electric car and place an order at the store.

The Berlin concept store operates in the same way as the popular Stockholm outlet, which attracted more than 14,000 visitors in the first three months. This innovative distribution channel with a largely educational remit in city locations is proving to be a huge success, underscoring the benefits of electric cars in urban environments. Renault is considering opening more concept stores in other European cities.
