According to foreign media reports, on May 15, Renault Group officially released its autonomous driving strategy, which will achieve the best application of autonomous driving technology based on the differentiated needs of personal vehicles and public transportation in the future.
In terms of personal vehicles, Renault Group focuses on L2 and L2+ level driving assistance systems, with specific functions including situational cruise control, lane keeping assistance and upcoming automatic overtaking technology.
Renault Group believes that these systems are at the leading level in the market and can effectively improve driving safety and comfort.
But when using these systems, the driver still needs to be responsible for driving the vehicle.
, In the field of public transportation, Renault Group expects that the market demand for self-driving minibuses will reach thousands in the next few years.
In the future, Renault Group will launch a robotic electric minibus platform based on the new Renault Master, which can integrate automation solutions provided by professional partners such as EasyMile, Milla and Wenyuan Zhixing.
Renault Group will also cooperate with Wenyuan Zhixing, a leading company in the field of autonomous driving technology, and plans to present the results of this cooperation for the first time in the field at the French Open on May 26, 2024.

, Le Borgne said: “L2+ autonomous driving has met 90% of customer expectations.
” “We will continue to provide safe and affordable L2+ solutions for passenger cars, but we also hope to develop L4 solutions to meet public transportation needs,” he said.
He pointed out that L3 is a key dividing line because automakers and drivers need to share responsibility in accidents.
, “We want to remain at the L2+ level, because L3 requires joint responsibility and reliability must be very high.
” he said.
“We are a popular brand and we don’t want to invest in L3 because the cost is too high for our customers to bear.
