The launch of Renault’s pet project at Dacia, the 5,000-euro car (codenamed X90) is just several months away. According to Dacia officials, the new model will be officially exhibited during a press conference, on June 2, at the Technocentre Renault (France), where it was designed. The car will be sold in Romania starting September. According to the company’s internal denomination system, the first model from the X90 project is called L90 and has triggered investments worth several hundred million euros. L90 will allow the Romanian carmaker to break even in Q4, 2004 and to turn Dacia into an international brand. ZF
