The release of Espace II at the Geneva Motor Show in 1991 marked Renault's strong determination to push its MPV concept forward even further. Modularity was upgraded with the introduction of innovative floor rails for the second and third row seat fixing, a more sophisticated climate control system was introduced, and the A pillars were slimmed down by 40% to improve visibility.

Espace II production from 1991 to 1996 reached 316,518 with total production across the first two generations topping the half-million mark in July 1996.
