A first of its kind, Renault EZ-GO, an electric, autonomous, shared concept is both a vehicle and a service that allows people to hail a ride either from a fixed or mobile location. Renault believes vehicle-service integration combined with connection to city infrastructure "“ leveraging sensors, data analytics, connected services, multimodal systems and more "“ will be a key characteristic of successful mobility solutions and smart cities of the future.

"Ride-hailing and shared mobility services represent an important opportunity for Renault, especially in cities. Many have aging "“ or very young "“ populations, and people looking for new mobility solutions," said Thierry Bolloré, Chief Operating Officer. "We've started exploring new mobility services already, and combined with our expertise in individual cars and light commercial vehicles, we believe Groupe Renault will be well-positioned to serve this potential market with electric, connected, autonomous mobility services in both consumer and business-to-business scenarios. EZ-GO is helping us further explore what the future could look like."

EZ-GO is the first of a series of Renault concept cars focused on mobility services that will be unveiled during 2018. EZ-GO follows the successful introduction of Renault's electric, connected, level-4 autonomous drive demo car for individual ownership, SYMBIOZ.

"We designed Renault EZ-GO to be an iconic symbol for cities. This electric, autonomous concept explores the positive potential impact of shared mobility for all," said Laurens van den Acker, Senior Vice President Corporate Design. "Visually appealing and integrated in the urban environment, it offers an unprecedented 360 degree "open window" on the city and a convivial space for people to relax and enjoy the ride."
