After only two years, Software République, Renault’s innovation company, presented the H1st, a concept car resulting from collaborative work on innovative mobility, at the Viva Technology 2023 show; a concept car equipped with functional and innovative technologies that illustrate its vision of future human-centred mobility n First vision). The concept car is a showcase for Renault’s future innovations. In terms of styling, the H1st follows in the footsteps of the Scenic Vision, unveiled in May 2022.

This vehicle doubles as a virtual replica, a digital twin that moves in a world where today’s independent systems (infrastructure, energy, public services, users of various categories, etc.) communicate and interact with each other. This makes it possible to model, visualise and simulate a multitude of use cases that can occur in the real world. Thanks to the strong interconnection with the surrounding environment, H1st vision establishes a constant dialogue with digital and physical ecosystems. A true experience that goes beyond automotive mobility, the H1st vision is not just a concept car, but a concrete vision of the mobility experience of the future. An experience that is more human-centred than ever before.

The twenty innovations on board this ‘technology demonstrator’ car take care of the driver, passengers and other road users. “The H1st vision concept car is a connected object, both physical and virtual, that demonstrates not only the validity of the method of collaboration between the partners, but also the complementarity that exists between the technologies of Dassault Systèmes, Orange, STMicroelectronics, Renault Group and Thales to build the mobility of the future,” said Eric Feunteun, Director of Operations at Software République.
