The project will include teams of engineers from the local division of Vitesco Technologies.
The aim is to create a core electronic unit that includes all components in one assembly: the DC-DC transformer, the OBC on-board charger and the inverter.
The “One Box” concept stands out for its compactness (occupying 45% less volume) and low weight, which will allow future Renault vehicles to offer more interior space. The configurations and assembly of the various basic components will be adapted for electric and hybrid engine types. The platform development teams will be based in the city of Toulouse.
This “One Box” is to equip Renault’s high-voltage electric and hybrid vehicles from 2026. The Renault Group’s objective is to have the system produced in France for 100% electric vehicles.
