The technical data comes from decoding this car's VIN. The equipment listed alongside is only what is visible in this car's photos. The photos show the second row of seats; the third row was not photographed. We do not name the trim version — the type code in the VIN does not identify it. We share the registration document and service records on request before signing.
Renault Espace 2.0 dCi car rental in Warsaw
The Espace solves a problem no estate car does. Every rear passenger gets their own seat, with its own backrest and space, instead of squeezing onto a bench. As standard it has five seats, with three individual seats in the second row and a large boot, and on request we fit two third-row seats so the Espace carries seven (just agree it when you book). Add a high seating position, large windows and rear parking sensors, without which a car this long would be misery in town. Ours goes out for family trips, weddings and anything that calls for one car instead of two.
The car belongs to our vans and minibuses class: 5 seats, a manual gearbox and a diesel engine. Every day includes 300 km, third-party insurance with roadside assistance in Poland, servicing and seasonal tyres, and a second driver. The deposit is 1 200 PLN. We hold it on a card at handover and release it once the car has been checked on return.
We hand the Renault Espace 2.0 dCi over in Warsaw: at our office on Wiejska 12/3 free of charge, at Chopin Airport for 80 PLN, or at an address you give us for 120 PLN. We rent for at least 3 days, and the longer the booking, the lower the daily rate. We have been running the rental for 8 years.
Who Renault Espace 2.0 dCi suits in Warsaw
In Warsaw, the Renault Espace is rented by families and groups who want to travel together without being squeezed. Friends going to a concert at the National Stadium and getting home without hunting for several taxis, a family gathering for the holidays from different stations and the airport, or a team on a company training trip outside Warsaw are typical reasons to take one big car. It has five seats as standard, and when six or seven are travelling we fit two third-row seats on request.
The Espace is long, so in the centre it is best left in a multi-storey car park or a Park and Ride car park by a metro station, continuing by public transport. The six-speed manual gearbox and 2.0 dCi diesel make joining traffic on the Toruńska route or the S8 easy, and on the open road it runs at low revs. With a full car, leave more room for braking, as a full load of passengers and luggage adds up to a lot of weight.
On a longer trip out of Warsaw, for example to the mountains or the seaside, five people fit in the Espace together with their luggage, because without the third row the boot is large. With the third-row seats fitted it carries seven, but the boot behind them gets small, so for a week away soft bags are the way to pack. A second driver on the contract at no extra charge lets you swap at the wheel every few hours.

Things worth knowing about the Renault Espace 2.0 dCi
The 2002 Espace IV was the first Espace designed and built entirely by Renault, at its Sandouville plant. The three earlier generations were developed with Matra.
In 2003 the Espace IV earned five Euro NCAP stars with 34.11 out of 37 points, the highest score in the history of those tests at the time.
The original 1984 Espace was one of the first European MPVs. In its first month on sale it found only nine buyers.
The body of the first Espace was made of glass fibre on a galvanised steel frame.
These facts are about the model generation and its history, not the equipment of this particular car.

Renault Espace 2.0 dCi compared with similar cars
If you are looking for an alternative to Renault Espace 2.0 dCi, the table sets it against the cars in our fleet that renters in Warsaw weigh up alongside it. The figures in the table and in the lists of strengths come from the price list and the specification, and under each pair we say who each car suits better.
Two large family cars of different sizes. The Renault Espace is longer (4.66 m vs about 4.5 m), has three separate seats in the second row, a stronger engine (a 130 hp diesel vs the Mazda's 115 hp petrol) and six gears. As standard it has five seats and a large boot, and we fit two third-row seats on request. The Mazda 5 has seven seats built in and sliding rear doors and is easier to park, but with every seat taken only 112 l of boot remains. For five people with lots of luggage on a long trip take the Espace; for a family with children in town, the Mazda 5.
Renault Espace 2.0 dCi or Mercedes-Benz Viano 3.0 CDI?
The Mercedes Viano has seven seats built in, an automatic, a 224 hp V6 and a sliding side door, and it is taller and longer, so it keeps its pace with a full load of people and luggage. The Renault Espace has five seats as standard (we fit two third-row seats on request), a manual gearbox and a 130 hp diesel, but drives like a large car and is easier to park. For airport runs with a delegation and luggage choose the Viano; for a family trip with lower fuel use, the Espace.
Renault Espace 2.0 dCi or Citroën C3 Picasso 1.6 HDi?
The Renault Espace has five seats as standard, and on request we fit two third-row seats. The Citroën C3 Picasso has five. Both have a diesel and a manual gearbox, but the Espace is more than half a metre longer, more powerful and has a bigger boot, while the C3 Picasso fits into any bay outside a block of flats and uses less fuel when driven gently. When six or seven are travelling, or five with lots of luggage, choose the Espace; around town, the C3 Picasso.
The Opel Insignia is a large five-seat car with a boot of around 500 l; the Renault Espace is an MPV with three separate seats in the second row, a tall cabin and a large boot, and on request we fit two third-row seats. Both have a six-speed manual. For a fast trip with five people the Insignia works better; when cabin space matters, or six or seven are travelling, choose the Espace.
Where Renault Espace 2.0 dCi wins
The figures come out about even, so choose by what you need the car for.
The Mercedes E220 CDI is a five-seat saloon with an automatic and a 540 l boot; the Renault Espace is a five-seat MPV with a manual, and on request we fit two third-row seats. The Mercedes is quieter and more comfortable on the motorway, while the Espace offers more headroom, separate rear seats and lots of luggage space with them folded. For five with suitcases on a fast trip choose the Mercedes; for a bigger group or when something big needs moving, the Espace.

A range such as 136–163 PS covers several outputs of the same engine. Figures are for the European market and come from manufacturer material and technical data catalogues.
Renault Espace 2.0 dCi and other versions of this model
Other versions of this model, with a stronger engine, a diesel or from a different year, are not in our fleet. Below we explain how they differ from Renault Espace 2.0 dCi and when our car is enough.
Renault Espace 2.0 dCi 150 i 175 (IV) or Renault Espace 2.0 dCi?
2.0 diesel, 150 PS or 173–175 PS, manual or automatic
This is the same two-litre diesel as in our Espace, just more powerful and available with an automatic. Our Espace has 130 PS and six gears, which is enough for relaxed driving with a full car, although overtaking with a full load needs planning.
Renault Espace 3.0 dCi V6 (IV) or Renault Espace 2.0 dCi?
3.0 V6 diesel, 177–181 PS, automatic only
The most powerful Espace IV diesel is a V6 built by Isuzu in Japan, also used in the Renault Vel Satis and always paired with an automatic. Our Espace has a 130 PS four-cylinder diesel and a manual gearbox, simpler and more economical on the road.
Renault Grand Espace (IV) or Renault Espace 2.0 dCi?
20 cm longer version, 4.86 m
The Grand Espace is 20 cm longer, with a noticeably bigger boot when all three rows are in use. Our Espace has five seats and a large boot as standard, and we fit two third-row seats on request. With seven on board, soft bags are the best way to pack, as they fit behind the third row more easily.
Renault Espace V (2015–2023) i VI (od 2023) or Renault Espace 2.0 dCi?
Espace V crossover, some versions with 4Control rear-wheel steering, Espace VI E-Tech hybrid with 5 or 7 seats
The Espace V turned into a crossover, some versions with rear-wheel steering, and the Espace VI is an E-Tech hybrid. Our Espace IV is the last classic people carrier to bear the name, with a tall cabin and three individual seats in the second row, plus two in the third row on request.

Renault Espace 2.0 dCi rental: frequently asked questions
Is there any boot space left with a full load of passengers?
As standard the Espace has five seats and a large boot, so five people can easily take their luggage on a trip. If we fit the two third-row seats, there is room behind them for a few soft bags, but not for a full set of hard suitcases. For a longer trip with seven on board it is worth working out the luggage in advance; with more to carry, consider a roof box on the rails or one of our vans. We are happy to advise when you book.
Can the rear seats be folded or removed?
The three second-row seats are individual and can be folded, so the load area can be arranged for a specific job, for example four people plus a bike. We fit the two third-row seats on request; just tell us when you book. Please do not remove the seats from the car during the rental, and tell us when booking if you need the full load area, because then a different car will suit you better.
How much does it cost to rent the Renault Espace 2.0 dCi?
We rent for at least 3 days. A day costs 129 PLN, a week 880 PLN and a month 2 500 PLN. The longer the booking, the lower the daily rate. Pick your dates in the calendar on this page to see the total.
What is the deposit for the Renault Espace 2.0 dCi?
The deposit is 1 200 PLN. We hold it on a payment card issued in the renter's name at handover and release it once the car has been checked on return, within three working days at the latest.
Can I lower the deposit on the Renault Espace 2.0 dCi?
Yes. The standard deposit is 1 200 PLN, but with excess insurance at 45 PLN per day it drops to 600 PLN. If there is damage covered by the insurance, you then pay no excess. You tick the insurance when booking, and the charge never exceeds the amount it takes off the deposit.
What is included in the price?
Third-party insurance with roadside assistance in Poland, servicing, inspections and seasonal tyres, a second driver at no charge once named in the contract, and pick-up at our office. The car is handed over with a full tank and returned the same way.
Is Renault Espace 2.0 dCi suitable for the route from Warsaw to Kraków?
The route from Warsaw to Kraków is about 295 km one way and about 3 h 30 min of driving, so 590 km there and back. Renting for 3 days includes 900 km, so 310 km of the allowance is left when you get back. Each kilometre over the allowance costs 1 PLN.
Renault Espace 2.0 dCi or Mazda 5 1.8 MZR: which should I choose?
Two large family cars of different sizes. The Renault Espace is longer (4.66 m vs about 4.5 m), has three separate seats in the second row, a stronger engine (a 130 hp diesel vs the Mazda's 115 hp petrol) and six gears. As standard it has five seats and a large boot, and we fit two third-row seats on request. The Mazda 5 has seven seats built in and sliding rear doors and is easier to park, but with every seat taken only 112 l of boot remains. For five people with lots of luggage on a long trip take the Espace; for a family with children in town, the Mazda 5. The comparison with the other similar cars in our fleet is further up this page.
