A joint development by Renault and Saint-Gobain, solarbay® uses Saint-Gobain Sekurit’s AmpliSky® full electronic system. The technology relies on a PDLC film* placed between two glass plates, which, once powered by an electric current, changes the orientation of the liquid crystals. This design allows headroom to be increased by 30 millimetres, improving the aerodynamics of Renault Symbioz full hybrid E-Tech and boosting its driving range as a result.

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.

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.

TRAINING COURSES

firefighter training

The only manufacturer in the world to have appointed a full-time Lieutenant-Colonel firefighter in engineering and the only one to collaborate regularly with road safety teams, Renault has trained 5,000 firefighters from 19 countries worldwide in just a few years! From 2023, new courses are already planned in Europe and Latin America.

RENAULT QRESCUE

Renault QRescue: saving time for the emergency services

With a QR code on the windscreen and rear window, Renault QRescue 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. This can save almost 15 precious minutes when it comes to taking care of victims within the golden hour(6).

TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPED IN PARTNERSHIP

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, the Fireman Access – a Renault innovation – points to the heart of the battery where firefighters can direct the fire hoses. Response times are therefore reduced from several hours to five minutes!

SD Switch

The “SD Switch” immediately disconnects the battery from the high-voltage network.

find out more about the collaboration with firefighters

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.

adas (systèmes avancés d’aide à la conduite)

adas (advanced driver-assistance systems)

Advanced driver-assistance systems (adas) are intelligent systems that rely on advanced technologies (radars, cameras, artificial intelligence, etc.) to help drivers on their journeys. And yet 67% of drivers do not use driver-assistance systems unless they are activated automatically (2019 SSHRC study)

making progress in road safety every day

Created in 1969 by the Renault and PSA Groups, the LAB is an accident research and biomechanics laboratory that also studies human behaviour. Its mission is to reduce the number of victims on the road; in 50 years, it has helped to reduce the number of people killed to a fifth of previous levels.
