Rennen LEC-Serenity. The second of 3 concepts chauffeurs with dignity.
Rennen unveils the LEC-Serenity concept, which is the second concept of 3 to be released in the LEC-X lineup. Complete with a sexy, low design and ample room inside and out, the LEC-Serenity embodies luxury in a compact package.
The LEC-Serenity Concept has a 2l turbocharged Inline-4 mounted longitudinally in the front of the car, shared with the LEC-MTR. Tuned for efficiency and smoothness, the unit continues to produce a healthy 300 HP at 7500 RPM. The engine is funneled through a 8-speed automatic transmission to all 4 wheels; a similar torque-vectoring AWD system shared with the LEC-MTR makes the LEC-Serenity purposed for any road and weather conditions as well as any dynamic power shuffling for high-stress situations. With a laser scanner capable of evaluating the road surface ahead, the Serenity with it’s adaptive dampers and digitized springs is able to iron out all and any bumps in the road with imperfections disappearing from the driver’s touch. Steering is designed to be light and easy, yet provide feedback which reminisces of old-school luxury. Perfection comes in the form of magnificent comfort, and the Serenity showcases this perfectly.
The exterior of the concept was woven by Rennen’s Chinese design studio in Beijing; the concept is unveiled at its design home. The main theme of the LEC-Serenity was “Power through Presence.” The design is not strictly functional; side-camera flourishes help to clean the design. The front grille was kept at a minimal amount of accenting, helping to accentuate the prominence of the vehicle. A side blade visually elongates the design; suicide doors harkens back to limousine-style vehicles. Two simple, ovular exhausts in the rear define a simple yet elegant rear fascia. A classy and subdued yet distinctive design, the LEC-Serenity proves to pave the way for future Rennen luxury models.
