Metallic Black “Noir Edition” Sets It Apart
Priced to Qualify for Eco-Friendly Vehicle Tax Benefits
A limited edition of 1,000 Filante vehicles in black is coming. Renault Korea is introducing the Filante Noir Edition, featuring a black design and key convenience features as standard.
Renault Korea, led by CEO Nicolas Paris, announced on November 2 that it will launch the Noir Edition on November 5. Based on the Esprit Alpine, the top trim of the Filante, the edition will be limited to 1,000 units.
True to its name, which means “black” in French, the Noir Edition features black design elements throughout the exterior and interior. The exterior comes in Metallic Black and features exclusive 20-inch all-black Sicane alloy wheels.
Exclusive details include Esprit Alpine logo side emblems, silver-painted headlamp accents, a silver Renault diamond logo on the rear, and a Filante emblem. The tailgate is also finished in Metallic Black.
The interior features a black suede headliner and black Nappa synthetic leather seats. It also includes an exclusive nameplate and a dedicated wallpaper for the openR panoramic screen, which consists of three displays, including those for the driver and front passenger.
Standard convenience features include a BOSE premium sound system, Active Noise Cancellation (ANC), and an Augmented Reality Head-Up Display (AR-HUD). The sound system has 10 speakers. Renault Korea values these features at approximately KRW 2.5 million.
Renault Korea said the vehicle comes with the company's existing “7-year/140,000-km” free extended warranty. The body, general components, and major engine and powertrain components are covered for up to 7 years or 140,000 km. Hybrid-specific components are covered for up to 8 years or 160,000 km, while the high-voltage battery is covered for up to 10 years or 200,000 km.
The selling price is set to qualify for eco-friendly vehicle tax benefits. An exclusive accessory package consisting of electric side steps and door spot lamps is available as a separate option.
