improving the safety of all road users

Data sharing, crash tests, full-scale drills… Renault is committed to reducing the number and severity of accidents.

Its “Human First Program”, developed in conjunction with researchers, experts and firefighters, has only one objective: to improve the safety of all road users every day.

In 2025, Renault takes safety a step further with the universal patent initiative by opening its safety patents to competitors.

Renault and firefighters, a unique partnership

Within the framework of the Human First Program, Renault has joined forces with the Naudet brothers, producers of award-winning documentaries about 9/11 and the Notre Dame fire, to highlight and visually express the extremely close collaboration between the Group and the road safety teams. This alliance between engineering and R&D constitutes an amazing adventure dedicated to “the golden hour”, the precious minutes when rescue workers have a greater chance of saving lives.

firefighter training

The only manufacturer in the world to have appointed a full-time firefighter in engineering and the only one to collaborate regularly with road safety teams, Renault has trained 5,000 firefighters from 21 countries worldwide in just a few years! New courses are already planned in Europe and Latin America.

QRescue Renault: saving time for the emergency services

With a QR code on the windscreen and rear window, QRescue Renault gives firefighters immediate access to the vehicle’s ‘rescue sheet’. It provides firefighters with all the information they need to allow them to work efficiently and safely.

Fireman Access

Even though our high voltage batteries are designed to ensure that they are not deteriorated by any intrinsic cause, a fire caused by external reasons is always possible. If a fire spreads to the battery, points to the heart of the battery where firefighters can direct the fire hoses, allowing battery fires to be extinguished in less than 10 minutes, compared to an average of 4 hours for other manufacturers. This saves approximately 42,000 liters of water per intervention and, most importantly, crucial time for emergency responders. In 2025, Renault takes safety a step further with the universal patent initiative by opening its safety patents to competitors.

in safety, cutting-edge vehicles

In 50 years, Renault has helped divide by 5 the number of victims on the roads. To continuously improve everybody’s safety, the experts from the LAB (Accidents and Biomechanics Laboratory) and the 600 engineers and technicians innovate relentlessly. In total, over 2,000 patents have been filed and a range of cutting-edge technological solutions like Fireman Access and the SD Switch have been developed.

TIME FIGHTERS: THE COLLABORATION BETWEEN
RENAULT AND THE FIRE SERVICE

The goal is to make their work in the field easier in the event of
an accident and to make it as safe as possible.

a unique partnership since 2010

Developed between Renault and the emergency services, the aim of the initiative is to help firefighters save time and stay safe on call-outs and therefore save more lives.

The only car manufacturer in the world to have appointed a full-time Lieutenant-Colonel firefighter, Renault has been regularly training first responders for a number of years, in several countries, to deal with the latest generation of vehicles in its range.

training courses offered

What type pf training is given?

The training courses use real vehicles, in real-life conditions such as fires, extrication, underwater rescues, and more.
Theoretical and practical training is given and courses can last several days. Regular communication also keeps the emergency services abreast of any innovations that may affect them.

training on real vehicles

Renault has given 4,000 new vehicles to the fire service. These include latest-generation electric and hybrid models so that firefighters can become acquainted with the latest technology.

passenger extrication

Vital training on how to cut passengers free helps firefighters save time and work more efficiently. It also teaches them how to use QRescue, which gives them instant access to technical information about the vehicle involved in the accident. The car manufacturer and the fire service take part in annual extrication challenges in France, as well as in the World Rescue Challenge, once again using the latest vehicles provided.

extinguishing a burning vehicle

Did you know that Renault has invented the only protocol to extinguish electric battery fires caused by external sources? Despite what many people think, high-voltage batteries in our electric vehicles are very safe. However, acts of vandalism or a fire outbreak from the outside can lead to a fire on the inside. For this reason, real-life fire extinguishing training courses help drill First Responders to develop adapted actions and work quickly with Renault innovation, the Fireman Access.

testimonies

Read the testimonies of Renault’s partner firefighters.

Tautu – Chief Fire Officer – France

“The collaboration with Renault means we have the latest generation of vehicles, including those that you can now buy in dealerships. This means we get them in advance so we know how to deal with them on the actual day, which is a real advantage.”

Julio – rescue trainer – Spain

“My message for all vehicle manufacturers is to involve the emergency services in the design and manufacturing process.”

Rudiger – Fire Officer – Germany

“The collaboration with Renault is extremely valuable to us as firefighters.”

Ian – Chief Fire Officer – England

“I believe that Renault has thrown down the gauntlet for other manufacturers.”

ADVANCED DRIVER-ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS

67% of drivers do not use driver-assistance systems unless
they are activated automatically(1) , Renault is therefore
working to reverse this trend.

 

(1) according to a 2019 SSHRC study

Advanced driver-assistance systems (adas) are intelligent systems that rely on advanced technologies (radars, software, cameras, etc.) to assist the driver on journeys.

Most adas work without human intervention, like the automatic emergency braking system (Pedestrian AEBS). New systems will soon herald the arrival of automated driving. Renault Group has been fitting its vehicles with driver-assistance systems for several years.

three types of adas for safe driving in any conditions

Advanced driver-assistance systems are divided into 3 categories: Safety, Driving and Parking.
Their purpose: to enhance user safety and comfort while reducing the risk of a serious accident.

safety

Intelligent driver-assistance systems analyse driving conditions, warn the driver of any risks and take action if danger is imminent.

driving

The various technologies make driving simpler and safer, for greater peace of mind.

parking

Parking aids make manoeuvring easy, enhance safety and protect your vehicle and your environment.

examples of Renault adas

safe exit of passengers

Your vehicle warns the driver when one of the passengers opens a door. A light in the rearview mirror and a visual and audible warning on the dashboard are triggered if there is a proven risk.

blind spot warning

Active above 15 km/h*, it warns the driver, via a signal in the rearview mirror, of the presence of vehicles that are not visible in his field of vision.

*or 30 km/h depending on the model

emergency brake assist

In the event of a head-on collision risk, the system warns drivers so that they can take appropriate emergency action. The system brakes automatically if drivers do not react despite the various alerts emitted.

360° around view camera

4 cameras reconstitute the environment of the vehicle in 360° so drivers can complete their manoeuvres safely.

emergency lane departure prevention

The vehicle corrects the trajectory automatically if it detects a possible collision.

traffic sign recognition with speed alert

Keep to speed limits easily with traffic sign recognition with speed alert. Vehicles with an easy link multimedia system can get updates through the Alliance Connect Toolbox software.
