For singles and newly-wed couples, a car with just two doors would be enough, but if you have a wife and three kids and want to be as green as possible, you may as well buy an electric car, but a 4-doors one... just like the Renault Fluence ZE, whose concept has been presented at this year's Paris Motor Show.

The Paris Motor Show 2010 presented a lot of electric and hybrid vehicles.

Helios IV, as it was named, is the brainchild of the HEI University in Lille, France, and has attended the World Solar Challenge (WSC) six times.

When I first saw it at this year's Paris Motor Show, I thought I was looking at something having to do with Steve Jobs, or something called iCar... but it was not like that at all. Renault's Zoe Preview really is French, and also has a gadget-like touch and feel.
