Renault Group has unveiled a new model of electric family car made with 50% recycled materials – delivering 90% lower lifecycle emissions than traditional vehicles.

The new Emblème model is Renault’s 2035 vision of a low-carbon family vehicle, not just because it is electric, but also due to the use of recycled and low-carbon materials in its production, bringing the car’s cradle-to-grave carbon footprint to just 5 tonnes of CO2 equivalent. This is 10 times lower than a 2019 petrol-based Renault Captur.
