According to Electrek, the vehicle was co-developed by Renault's EV teams and defense electronics firm John Cockerill. It is meant to navigate complex terrain on its own and enable remote logistics missions in high-risk or hard-to-reach environments, with no one on board.
Renault CEO François Provost said the project shows what Renault's expertise in fast, large-scale, cost-effective production can contribute to unmanned ground vehicles, which are expected to have both military and civilian uses.
At this stage Forefront is mostly a rendering. The first prototypes will take part in exercises and trials in the coming months to refine the concept. Renault has not released a price, full specifications or a production timeline.
