EZ-FLEX: A VEHICLE CREATED AND DESIGNED FOR CITY DELIVERIES

Renault #ezflex is a compact and manoeuvrable vehicle designed to move seamlessly throughout cities.

It provides an optimal footprint in relation to its load space: the length (3.86 m), width (1.65 m) and height (1.88) are small enough to enable access to car parks. Its 3m3 load capacity is exceptional for its dimensions and made possible by a compact cockpit which still offers the full range of assets of a true #lcv. The 4.5 m turning circle provides excellent maneuverability in city centers.

Everything was designed to meet the needs of deliverers: the wide access to the driver’s seat which facilitates ingress and egress, a highly visible central dashboard for quick and easy access to driving information, pedestrian and urban environment visibility and simple and efficient driving controls. The human machine interface is modern and fully integrated into the world of smartphones. It offers services and applications linked to the vehicle and can integrate applications linked to various professionals’ activities.

Rear loading is optimized via an ergonomic loading height (760 mm above ground) and openings enabling easy access to the entire loading surface. The vehicle was also designed to enable a wide variety of configurations. These rear space configurations are adaptable, designed to meet the different needs of the professionals by whom the vehicle will be used.

As an electric vehicle, #ezflex can access city centers, offering a range of 150 km adapted to the needs of urban delivery (urban deliveries require driving 50 km per day on average).
