Renault Symbioz why is it called that
The name “Symbioz” has a very interesting etymological origin, which derives from the ancient Greek “symbiosis”, composed of the words “syn” meaning “with” and “bios” meaning “life”. The term symbolizes the concept of to live together. This etymology carries with it a profound meaning: life and being together are closely interconnected.
In the scientific field, the term symbiosis instead indicates aAssociation between two living organisms that mutually benefit from each other. Now in the automotive world the concept also extends to figurative senserecalling humanity, social life and, intuitively, family.
“Symbioz” was in fact the name of one concept cars presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2017, representing a perfect combination of the future SUV for families and the reference to Renault's history. It was a concept focused on redefining the internal space of the car and on autonomous driving.
