На автосалоне в Сеуле состоялась мировая премьера концепт-кара Samsung XM3 Inspire. Хотя на самом деле это лишь слегка изменённый вариант прототипа Renault Arkana, который был показан ещё в августе 2018 года на международном автосалоне в Москве.
Новинка на 99% повторяет модель под брендом Reanult, хотя автомобиль от Renault Samsung Motors получил свои характерные детали. Марка, основанная в 1994 году, а в 2000-м ставшая дочерним брендом Renault, должна наладить серийный выпуск кроссовера по мотивам концепта в 2020 году.

Машина, которую будут делать в Пусане, отличается от версии Renault своими эмблемами, слегка переработанными фонарями и несколько изменёнными дверями. В остальном XM3 Inspire — та же Arkana.

With the clear objective of meeting the expectations of our customers in South Korea, we sought to create the most elegant vehicle in the world, an emblematic model that will mark the true design transformation of Renault Samsung Motors.
