Renault Japon has produced next year's calendar. What is this calendar, which is full of playful spirit and remarkably elaborate?

A Drive Through France, Every Day

The calendar produced by Renault Japon this time is a tear-off type, but its mechanism is as unique and full of sensibility as only Renault could create. While hanging it on the wall is ordinary, you don't "tear off" the date; you "pull it along."

The front surface, where the date is printed, is designed to evoke French roads. Depending on the month, it unfolds into seasonal driving scenes, such as the cobblestone streets of Paris, quiet riverside lanes, or idyllic country roads. The part where this background changes, essentially the monthly perforation, can be cut out, but it's so well-made that you'll feel it's a shame to cut and discard it.

Furthermore, a miniature Kangoo car is placed on a transparent acrylic board representing the day's date, making it enjoyable to advance the days as if you were actually driving.

This unique calendar truly embodies Renault's "Vis Tes Passions - Drive Your Passion." Unfortunately, it is not for sale and cannot be obtained by the general public. However, through the kindness of Renault Japon, we are offering it as a gift to three lucky OPENERS readers. If you wish to enter, please apply via the button below. The application period is until November 30th, 23:59.
