The extended Grand Modus cars used by the company were reportedly modified by adding a reinforced mid-body section, a longer rear passenger compartment, strengthened floor supports, revised rear suspension, and heavier insulation. Their approximate overall length was around 4.30 m, compared to the shorter standard production form. They retained the basic Renault platform and drivetrain layout, but were adapted for smoother long-distance travel, quiet operation, and private transport use. | The extended Grand Modus cars used by the company were reportedly modified by adding a reinforced mid-body section, a longer rear passenger compartment, strengthened floor supports, revised rear suspension, and heavier insulation.
