The Paris Auto Show is full of interesting cars Americans can’t have

Key points

• The Paris Auto Show showcased several European vehicles unavailable in the US market. Peugeot unveiled the E-T16 Concept, inspired by the rally-winning 205 T16, demonstrating that hatchbacks can be exciting.
• Fiat presented the Multipla, a versatile vehicle that transforms from a people carrier to a pickup, featuring adaptable seating. Renault displayed the E-Space Concept, an electric minivan with a distinctive design and large wheels.
• The lack of electric minivans in the US market is evident, with only the poorly selling VW ID. Buzz currently available.
