With the Renault Emblem The French car manufacturer has presented a concept vehicle that is intended to show what sustainable driving could look like in the future – without sacrificing design or range.
The car was first presented at the Paris Motor Show in the fall and aims to massively reduce its ecological footprint compared to current models.
Renault Emblem Concept
With a length of 4,8 m The emblem presents itself as Shooting Brake With a low silhouette and long roofline, it's a deliberate contrast to the usual SUV trend. Instead of side mirrors, there are cameras, and the rearview mirror also operates via a digital solution with a camera and interior mirror.
Large, aerodynamically optimized wheels also improve efficiency. According to Renault CO₂ emissions are expected to be reduced by 90% The basis for this is a comprehensive sustainability concept: materials, production, weight, and energy supply have been completely rethought.
Even the electricity mix from the grid is included in the ecological balance. Over the entire life cycle, the Emblem only around 5 tons of CO₂ cause, in the long term one even wants to 0 tons kommen.
Electric plus hydrogen
Purely battery-electric? Not the Emblem. Renault is relying on a Combi from Battery and hydrogen fuel cell, because large batteries produce a lot of CO₂ during production. The solution: A smaller battery is green hydrogen supplemented, which is in a Fuel cell is processed into electricity.
This means that an electric motor drives the car – completely emission-free during operation. two short refueling stops According to Renault 1.000 km range is possible. The battery alone can 300 km, on the Highway rather 200 kmThe approach aims to demonstrate that alternative drive systems do not necessarily mean compromises in range.
Sustainable inside too
The interior is all about the resource conservation. Mono materials that are easy to recycle are used – including recycled plastic, Flax and even pineapple fibersAdhesives are largely avoided to make later recycling easier.
Body made of recyclable material
The body consists of Steel and aluminum, both materials that can be reused as often as required. Production is also important to Renault: only if suppliers and partners on CO₂-neutral processes the entire chain can become sustainable.
Series production? Not yet
One thing is clear: the emblem remains initially a concept vehicle, A Series production is not planned. However, individual ideas – Design, materials, technical solutions – will be incorporated into future production models. Which models will be affected is still unclear.
