This is the new Mobilize EZ-1 Prototype, a new concept for shared urban mobility and the first product of Renault Group’s new Mobilize brand. Mobilize will offer purpose-designed vehicles for mobility services, such as EV charging, finance, and subscription, as well as data processing software, maintenance and recycling services for car-sharing fleets.
Renault’s new mobility unit is currently
developing four vehicles for ride-sharing and last-mile delivery, with the
first one being the EZ-1. The tiny two-seater EV measures 2.3 meters long and
features top-to-bottom glass doors for a “completely uninterrupted view of the
surrounding urban landscape”.
In addition, the new Mobilize EZ-1
features an innovative battery exchange system, as an alternative to the
traditional charging infrastructure, to ensure that it can be used non-stop
without having to be out of service.
Renault says that the Mobilize EZ-1 is
made with 50 percent recycled materials and will be 95 percent recyclable at
the end of its life cycle, courtesy of Renault’s facilities at the Flins
‘Re-Factory’.
