Renault (Mégane) and PSA (C4 & DS4) are now marketing SCOOP vehicles, equipped with communication units dedicated to road safety and traffic management use cases. Vehicles are sold without extra cost!

SCOOP is a cooperative intelligent transport system project aimed at improving road safety for users and operators, making traffic management more efficient to help reduce emissions, and preparing the vehicle of tomorrow.

The equipped vehicles are standard sedans: C4 and DS4 for PSA and Mégane for Renault. These vehicles are available for purchase at no extra cost from car dealerships near all equipped road networks.

“Our primary objective is to offer our fleet customers vehicles that enhance road safety and improve traffic flow: the cars communicate with each other and alert in real-time in case of dangers, slowdowns, and accidents. Infrastructure managers also transmit information to equipped vehicles about traffic conditions, roadworks, speed limits, accidents, or dangerous obstacles on the road.”
Christine Tissot, SCOOP Project Manager at Groupe Renault.
Equipped with sensors and processors, these vehicles communicate with other connected cars (V2V) as well as with fixed units distributed along roadways (V2X), to identify and signal dangers, allowing all road users (users and managers) to adapt their behavior and act to address the incident.
