A new 2,300 m² building has been built at the Renault Technocentre in Guyancourt, in Yvelines. Entirely dedicated to simulation, this building called Roads houses the brand new Renault simulator, which bears the same name. This new tool makes it possible to drive the digital twin of a vehicle in development. The simulator reproduces the dynamic behavior of any car in any conditions: road type, traffic density, interactions with other vehicles, altitude, weather, light, etc.

The manufacturer spent 26 million euros on this project, which began in 2017, including 18 million for the simulator and 9 million for the building. A substantial investment which aims to limit the number of prototypes manufactured when designing a new vehicle.
