The Electric Car That's Good for Your Skin

Renault sure does come up with some out-there concepts. Remember the Twizy Z.E.? It had hexagonal wheels. Now Renault is showing off the Zoe Z.E., which has an interior that mirrors a "spa-like experience."

The engineering focus is on the car's climate control system, which has an electric diffuser built right in, capable of spreading specialty oils around the cabin.

If you're into aroma therapy, that should be a nice touch, though you may want to refrain from anything too soothing lest you fall asleep at the wheel.

Renault's Zoe may not be just a concept, either, as the company is hinting that the electric car could see production as early as 2012.
