Renault DeZir

The Renault DeZir is an electric concept car by Renault that appears in the Asphalt series.

Overview
The Renault DeZir was officially unveiled at the 2010 Paris Motor Show. The DeZir uses butterfly doors and an interior of red leather. The engine is a 148 hp mid-mounted electric motor capable of giving the DeZir the ability to propel itself to 60 mph in five seconds up to a top speed of 112 mph. As a result of these specifications, the Renault DeZir tends to rival the Audi R8 e-tron.

Asphalt 8: Airborne
The Renault DeZir is one of the 11 new cars added in the Winter update.

Judging from the Winter update trailer, the Renault DeZir is a Class D car, much like the Renault CLIO R.S. 200 EDC. While having a relatively low starting rank of 514, the Renault DeZir has a maximum rank of 1153 and a final rank of 1262. With a starting rank-maximum rank difference of 639 points, the Renault DeZir has the biggest gap between the starting rank and maximum rank of any car to date. If a Tuning Kit is active, the DeZir effectively becomes the most powerful Class D vehicle in the game, as a Tuning Kit adds 128 points to its rank, making its new final rank 1390, which is higher than the Ferrari 308 GTS's 1387 (1336+51).

Judging from its current specs, the Renault DeZir accelerates very fast for a Class D vehicle with the nitro activated. In fact, it has the fastest nitro boost of any electric vehicle in the game (63.9 mph); it also lasts quite long, unlike the Ford F-150, which has the biggest nitro boost of any vehicle in the game. However, it handles worse than the CLIO R.S. 200 EDC for some reason. Also, it has a horrible top speed compared to other high-end Class D cars, even lower than that of a maxed out Dodge Dart GT but more than that of a Ford F-150. Unlike other high-end Class D cars, the Renault DeZir only has two Pro Kit levels instead of five, which explains its worse handling than the CLIO R.S. 200 EDC.

The Renault DeZir costs 180 Tokens to purchase and 703,000 Credits to max out.
