2018 Paris Motor Show: Renault's EZ Ultimo concept takes the driving out of travel

By dpa | 4 October 2018


PARIS: More living room than car, Renault's new EZ Ultimo concept ditches the steering wheel and ramps up the luxury ahead at the Paris Motor Show.

At 5.7 metres long and over two metres wide, the self-driving EZ Ultimo is an imposing character with both front and rear-wheel steering.

The fully-electric car concept has the necessary agility to glide seamlessly through tight inner city streets while providing enough lounge space inside for you and two others to relax during the journey.

The concept also makes use of inductor technology, allowing for quick and simple automated charging of the car's battery.

The EZ Ultimo's interior also maintains the comfort-focused atmosphere, with wood, leather and even marble hardtops all featuring.

Instead of the digital touch surfaces that have been so common in other car manufacturer's recent concepts, Renault want to give passengers a much more organic view.

The French carmakers have developed side and rear windows in a rhombic pattern that gives passengers a clear sight of the outside world without having to worry about any reciprocating looks from passersby.
