Automatic headlights and wiper activation
Renault provides systems that automatically manage certain tasks, thus enabling the driver to pay full attention to the road.
The headlights light up and the wipers start automatically as required by light and weather conditions. The wiper speed adjusts automatically to rainfall intensity.
LED headlights
When driving at night, the driver‘s capacity for anticipation is directly determined by the range of the headlights.
LED headlights are highly efficient, delivering twice the light and more than twice the range of halogen lights using the same power consumption. Their flux density is higher, but they do not dazzle drivers in oncoming vehicles. They have a colour close to natural daylight.
Dedicated cornering lights
On winding roads, an obstacle on the inside of a bend will be difficult to see with conventional headlights.
Additional cornering lights light up the inside of the bend. They are automatically switched off at high speed or when reverse gear is engaged.
Safety is built into the DNA of every Renault. The entire Renault range is designed to provide protection to those travelling in the vehicle.
The vehicle’s structure protects occupants by absorbing much of the impact energy, while cabin-based retention systems absorb the rest of the energy. Renault’s third-generation System for Restraint and Protection (SRP) is a safety innovation which is still unique on the market, and our range of passenger protection systems includes active anti-submarining airbags, high-performance rear impact absorbing seats and headrests, dual side impact sensors and advanced child safety systems.
System for Restraint and Protection
A complete protection system for each seat and each occupant.
Active anti-submarining airbag
Collision protection which is equally effective for both 3 and 5 door cars.
As far as child safety is concerned, nothing is too much for Renault.
Because children are more vulnerable than adults, and to better understand how to protect them in serious collisions, Renault participated in the European research Programs CHILD and CREST, based chiefly on the observations made from 669 real-life car accidents with children on-board.
Thanks to this work, Renault has been able to develop its own testing method to endow child seats with the same level of safety as adult seating systems.
For each new car, Renault ensures that seats can be correctly fitted and that they meet particularly rigorous protection requirements.
International Standards Organisation FIX
What is ISOFIX?
A recognized standard for installing child seats into cars and is intended to make fitting child seats quick and simple.
All new Renault cars are fitted with ISOFIX points. Child seats carrying ISOFIX fittings can then be simply plugged and locked into the ISOFIX points in the car. Fitting a child seat using ISOFIX provides a rigid link between the child seat and the car to provide extra solidity. Rigid attachment of the child seat to the car helps to reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accident.
As a guide, all new Renault cars are fitted with Isofix points on the two external rear seats. With two being in the rear sear outer seats and the other being in the front passenger. For full details about the location, and the details of which age range child seats can be fitted, consult your handbook.
