In a world increasingly aware of the climate crisis, Renault is proud to unveil the Emblème, a visionary family shooting brake that stands as a testament to the brand's commitment to low-carbon mobility. Making its debut at the 2024 Paris Motor Show, the Emblème embodies Renault's bold ambition to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2040 in Europe and 2050 worldwide.

The Emblème is not just a car; it's a declaration of Renault's dedication to sustainability. With a groundbreaking approach to decarbonization, this innovative vehicle reduces greenhouse gas emissions by an astonishing 90% compared to conventional vehicles. By harnessing recycled materials, employing renewable energy in its production, and championing circularity, the Emblème aims to produce only 5 tonnes of CO2 equivalent emissions over its entire lifecycle.

From its elegant curves to its dynamic lines, the Emblème is designed to turn heads while minimizing drag. Its thoughtful aerodynamics feature integrated cameras replacing traditional mirrors, concealed windscreen wipers, and full disc wheels, all crafted to enhance airflow. Collaborating with the BWT Alpine F1 Team, Renault has fine-tuned the vehicle's design, achieving an impressive drag coefficient (Cx) of just 0.25. The result? A family car that not only looks stunning but performs efficiently.

At 4.80 meters long, the Emblème is the perfect blend of style and practicality. With a wide wheelbase and a spacious interior, it comfortably accommodates families and their luggage. Weighing in at only 1,750 kg, it is lighter than many hybrid SUVs and electric vehicles, reflecting Renault's commitment to efficiency without compromise.

The Emblème features an innovative dual powertrain system that includes a 40 kWh battery for everyday commutes and a hydrogen fuel cell for longer journeys. This advanced setup allows the vehicle to achieve remarkable versatility, enabling it to cover distances of up to 1,000 km. With just two hydrogen refueling stops-each taking less than five minutes-families can travel as quickly and easily as in traditional vehicles, all while producing only water as a byproduct.

The development of the Emblème involved a collaborative effort with over 20 expert partners, showcasing a new way of working that promotes innovation and idea exchange. This groundbreaking approach not only accelerates the path to decarbonization but also solidifies Renault's position as a leader in the future of sustainable mobility.

The Renault Emblème will be fully unveiled at the end of October, with availability expected in early 2025. Pricing details will be announced soon, making this revolutionary vehicle accessible to families seeking a sustainable and efficient mode of transport.
