Renault has released the first teaser image of its new concept car, set to be revealed at the Frankfurt motor show next week. Renault says the concept forms its vision of premium motoring.

Very little can be seen from the teaser image, although it is already known that the new car will form the sixth entry in Renault design chief Laurens van den Acker's Circle of Life series. The series began in 2010 with the Renault DeZir concept at the Pars motor show, and also includes other concept cars like the Twin'Run and R-Space.  

It is believed that this new concept will preview the next generation of the Renault Espace, which has remained unchanged since 2003. Internet rumours also suggest the concept will be the first to be badged under Renault's Initiale Paris sub-brand.
