Nos actualités

At Ampere, we are about to celebrate our first anniversary, marking a year filled with remarkable achievements. Over the past few months, we have been making a difference in a number of key areas:

🚀 Faster development: From the highly anticipated Twingo EV, on track to be developed in less than 2 years for a selling price below €20,000, to the Renault 5, soon manufactured in under 10 hours at our cutting-edge #ElectriCity hub – we are making quality EVs more accessible and efficient than ever.

🦾 A global tech platform: we are proud to collaborate with global partners and a dedicated team in China, working very closely with Chinese partners, with the objective to learn and catch-up. We also accelerate as a Tech platform for major brands : Alpine, with A290 and A390, Nissan Motor Corporation with its Compact EV, and Mitsubishi Motors Corporation with its next EV C-SUV.

♻️ Sustainable innovation & cost reduction: our commitment to sustainability and affordability is at the forefront of our roadmap. With a 40% cost reduction by 2028 through advancements in battery technology, such as LFP and cell-to-pack. Plus, in 2026, we’ll introduce Europe’s first Software-Defined Vehicle (SDV)—a true testament to our agility and vision.

🚗 Beyond the EV: At the Mondial de l’Auto – Paris 2024, Renault Embleme demo car showcased the next level of net-zero mobility, giving a glimpse into a future where Ampere leads in sustainable innovation for all.

– Douai which went 100% electric a year ago with Megane E-Tech and is now starting to produce Scenic, Car of The Year 2024. They had a sneak-peak of the production of hashtag#R5, as the first pre-series can be seen on the lines, preparing sales for next fall…
