Renault's new mobility brand launches EZ-1 Prototype

Renault has launched a new mobility-related brand called Mobilize and from it, launched the EZ-1 Prototype, a purpose-designed vehicle for shared urban mobility.

Mobilize EZ-1 Prototype is a compact and agile electric vehicle for two people. It's only 2.3 metres long and has top-to-bottom glass doors give EZ-1 Prototype users an unhindered view on the surrounding urban landscape. Mobilize EZ-1 Prototype features an innovative battery exchange system which means it can be used non-stop.

Made with 50% recycled materials, it will be 95% recyclable at the end of its life cycle thanks to the Flins Re-Factory.

Mobilize targets customers who wish to adopt more sustainable, shared forms of mobility. Mobilize addresses new needs and promotes sustainable energy ecosystems, in line with Groupe Renault’s target of carbon neutrality and its ambition to develop value from the circular economy.

Mobilize brings together Groupe Renault’s activities in mobility, energy, and data-related solutions while leveraging expertise from RCI Bank and Services.

Clotilde Delbos, CEO, Mobilize Brand, said: "We are very excited to embrace the disruption of the automotive world shifting from ownership to usage, whenever and wherever you need it. Beyond automotive, Mobilize will offer a wide array of innovative services in the mobility, energy and data fields. With a variety of partners, our goal is to maximize car usage with simplified, more sustainable and accessible mobility journeys for people and goods, while reducing the environmental impact."
