Groupe Renault and Ferrovial are about to launch a ZITY free-floating car-sharing service in Paris.In March 2020, a fleet of 500 100% electric Renault ZOE cars equipped with ZITY technology will be made available to Parisians on a self-service basis. This is a particularly flexible and adapted offer that responds to a strong trend: 20% of the capital's inhabitants use car-sharing[1].This launch in Paris is a new step in the partnership between Groupe Renault, a pioneer of electric vehicles in Europe and Ferrovial, one of the world's leading infrastructure operators and urban service providers, which began successfully in 2017 with ZITY, an electric vehicle car-sharing service in Madrid.
The Paris-Saclay Autonomous Lab project was initiated by Groupe Renault, Groupe Transdev, IRT SystemX, Institut VEDECOM and the University of Paris-Saclay.Its purpose is to develop new autonomous (i.e. driverless) mobility services using dedicated lane and public and campus streets to supplement the existing Saclay Plateau transportation systems.The Paris-Saclay Autonomous Lab was inaugurated on 15 May 2019 at the SPRING 2019 innovation event by Grégoire de Lasteyrie, Île-de-France Regional Councillor, Special Delegate responsible for New Mobility and Mayor of Palaiseau; Francisque Vigouroux, Vice-President of the Paris-Saclay urban community responsible for Mobility and Transportation and Mayor of Igny; and Michel Bournat, Mayor of Gif-sur-Yvette and President of the Paris-Saclay urban community. The inauguration ceremony was attended by Thierry Mallet, Chairman and CEO of Groupe Transdev; Arnaud Molinié, Senior Vice President, Mobility Services, Groupe Renault; Paul Labrogere, CEO, IRT SystemX; Sylvie Retailleau, President of the University of Paris-Saclay; Philippe Watteau, Managing Director, VEDECOM; and Elizabeth Crepon, Director, ENSTA.

Renault will be at the 2023 Rétromobile car show in Paris with a stand paying homage to the brand’s iconic vehicles. From 1 to 5 February 2023, the brand invites visitors to dive into a timeless universe – all while resolutely looking towards the future.The first area, The Originals Renault Garage, will show three fully electric retrofitted models: the Renault 4, the Renault 5 and a reinvented Twingo making its first-ever public appearance. Renault’s design team took the Twingo slogan of “à vous d’inventer la vie qui va avec” (create the life that goes with it) to new heights to mark the car’s 30th birthday. Their new design is a surprising tribute to the California lowriders of the 1990s.This part of the stand will also feature the R5 Turbo 3E and Suite N°4 show cars, as well as an astonishing new breed of show car: “Mute the Hot Rod”. Based on a 1924 Renault MT, “Mute the Hot Rod” has an electric power train and a design that draws inspiration from the speed records set at the time and 1940s hot rods. Presented here in an initial preview version, the finalised show car will be revealed later in the year.
Comeback for a legend: In 2021, the Renault 5 Prototype study quotes the cult car of the same name from the 1970s and at the same time takes a look at the future of the brand. The concept vehicle with the reinterpreted, iconic R5 design shows how Renault will democratize the electric car in Europe and make it desirable.The Renault 5 Prototype presented in 2021 is not only clearly recognizable as a direct descendant of the legendary Renault 5 by its name. The designers also succeeded in reinterpreting the design language of the original presented in 1972. The study cites the unmistakable optical characteristics of the classic without appearing "retro". Characteristics are the closed front with the illuminated rhombus and the illuminated "Renault" lettering in the lower apron. This is framed by square LED daytime running lights with an integrated "5". Where the sporty air inlet used to be on the bonnet, the flap for connecting the charging cable is now hidden.
