To celebrate the reveal of the Renault 4 E-Tech 100% electric, Renault is launching several exciting initiatives, building momentum for the model’s market launch in 2025. The most notable initiative is the “4 Movements”, an innovative collaboration between Renault and four French start-ups, each contributing a unique form of e-mobility.
1. “4 Movements” — Expanding the Scope of E-Mobility
Renault’s “4 Movements” represents the brand’s partnership with four pioneering French start-ups, showcasing the future of electric mobility across various transport modes. The collaboration includes:
- A mini-caravan
- An e-plane
- An e-motorbike
- A water e-bike
These partnerships pay homage to the versatility of the Renault 4, offering an inspiring vision of future mobility on land, sea, and air.
2. A Collaborative Showcase at the Paris Motor Show
Following the success of the “5 Movements” initiative launched with the Renault 5 E-Tech, Renault is replicating the concept for the Renault 4 E-Tech. At the 2024 Paris Motor Show from October 14-20, Renault will showcase these innovations in Hall 5, alongside the Renault 4 E-Tech 100% electric.
The display, open on all sides for a 360-degree viewing experience, features the Renault 4 E-Tech along with the four innovative mobility solutions, each designed in Cloud Blue—the iconic color of the original Renault 4 from 1962. The vehicles also feature denim-effect upholstery and headlights inspired by the Renault 4, blending modern technology with a nod to the past.
3. Partnering with French Start-ups for a Greener Future
Renault’s “4 Movements” initiative is not only about showcasing cutting-edge mobility but also about promoting a sustainable ecosystem. This collaboration highlights Renault’s ambition to work with French companies committed to rethinking transport in a way that is eco-friendly, smart, and fun. The four mobility solutions are set for small-scale production and will be available for pre-order at the Paris Motor Show. The full range, including the Renault 4 E-Tech, will be available in spring 2025.
