The Renault FlexEVan represents an upcoming series of fully electric light commercial vehicles, created under the Flexis joint venture—a partnership between Renault, Volvo Group, and CMA CGM. Manufacturing is set to commence in 2026 at Renault's Sandouville facility located in France.
The production version was formally introduced on 28 January 2025, following its initial preview with the Estafette concept car in September 2024.
History
In October 2023, the Flexis joint venture was established by Renault and Volvo Group to concentrate on the development of advanced electric light commercial vehicles (LCVs). Ownership is divided with Renault and Volvo each holding 45%, while CMA CGM possesses the remaining 10%. This alliance is designed to address the growing need for eco-friendly urban delivery options by leveraging the combined strengths of the three founding companies.
Features
The FlexEVan range is built on a skateboard chassis featuring batteries integrated into the floor, enhancing both space utilization and weight balance. This adaptable platform accommodates a minimum of three different body styles across two length variants, all sharing a unified cabin layout tailored for last-mile delivery tasks with a focus on agility, compact design, and multifunctionality.
Specifications
FlexEVan vehicles will be equipped with a software-defined vehicle (SDV) framework, allowing for sophisticated digital capabilities and flexibility. Comprehensive technical details will be released in due course.
