Automotive: Renault will transform its thermal utilities into electric thanks to Phoenix Mobility

A greasy and imposing heat engine was placed on a cart, in the middle of the Phoenix Mobility workshop based in Fontaine (Isère), in the suburbs of Grenoble, leaving a gaping hole under the hood of a commercial vehicle. In a few hours, an electric motor will be housed there, with a battery instead of the gas tank. An operation called “retrofit” in the automotive industry.
