For the fourth year in a row, Renault Group will proudly stand as the sole automotive manufacturer at the ChangeNow Summit, taking place from April 24 to 26, 2025, at the Grand Palais in Paris. A beacon of the Group’s enduring commitment to sustainability, Renault’s presence will centre around its striking Renault Emblème—a forward-thinking demo-car that encapsulates the brand’s low-carbon vision for the future of mobility.
Renault Emblème: A Glimpse Into Carbon-Free Family Travel
Positioned in the Mobility area of the summit, Renault Emblème is more than just a concept—it is a manifesto on wheels. This rolling demonstrator envisions a 2035 family vehicle that slashes greenhouse gas emissions by 90% (CO₂e) over its full life cycle when compared to a 2019 benchmark. Through thoughtful design, innovative materials, and circular thinking, Emblème brings Renault Group’s climate ambitions to life in tangible form.
Throughout the summit, experts in low-carbon mobility will be on hand at the Renault booth to unpack the technologies and strategies underpinning Emblème’s development, engaging with visitors and industry professionals alike.
A Strategic Keynote on Renaulution’s Sustainable Impact
On April 24 at 1:15 p.m., two of Renault Group’s most influential voices—Josep-Maria Recasens, Director of Strategy at Renault Group and CEO of Ampere, and Cléa Martinet, Director of Sustainability—will deliver a keynote titled “Decarbonizing industry within planetary boundaries.” This pivotal moment will reflect on four years of Renaulution, Renault Group’s transformative strategic plan launched in 2021, highlighting its measurable strides in sustainability and its vision for the road ahead.
