if there’s ever a car that sits between a Formula 1 race car and a fun EV, the Twizy Renault Sport F1 Concept Car would be it. born as a concept, the Twizy Renault is the French automaker’s fun take on the firm’s electric urban compact Twizy. this blend of cute car with aggressive styling looks more like a Mario go-kart on steroid, but of course
