My GT7 Log: Know Your Legends - Renault Espace F1

Let's get to know about the legendary cars that are hard to get in Gran Turismo 7's Legend Cars, not only because of their extreme rarity that appears once in a blue moon, but also their outrageous price tag that takes almost forever to save one. Today, let's get to know about the Renault Espace F1, a bizarre concept car that mashes between an F1 car and a second-generation Espace MPV.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Renault Espace, which debuted in 1984, Renault developed an extraordinary concept car known as the Espace F1. This car combines the drivability of a concept vehicle with the design of the second-generation Espace MPV.

The Espace F1 was created in collaboration with Matra and the Williams F1 Team. It maintains the shape of the second-generation Espace but is expertly crafted with aluminum and carbon fiber, featuring unique racing aerodynamics. Under the hood, it is powered by the same 3.5-liter V10 engine that drove the FW14B, the winner of the 1992 Formula 1 season. This impressive engine produces 788 horsepower, allowing the Espace F1 to accelerate from 0 to 100 kph in less than three seconds, with a top speed of 316 kph.

Let's unleash the Espace F1 around the Goodwood track, see if one of our Gran Turismo favorites still has it. Let's roll the tape.


I did it in 1m11.890s. Although not my best effort, this racing minivan's still got it. First playable on GT2, now playable in GT7. This Espace F1 still has it.

What other hard-to-get legendary cars should I drive next? Stay tuned for more.
