Renault and John Cockerill unveil Forefront modular UGV: 1-tonne payload, ~400 km range, 4×4 EV

Published 7 November 2026

French-Belgian team Renault and John Cockerill presented the Forefront wheeled UGV concept targeting up to 1-tonne payload and roughly 400 km range. Dual electric motors drive all four steerable wheels; a range-extender unit can supplement the battery pack. The modular chassis accepts a weapons turret, ISR optics, or counter-drone equipment, and concept imagery shows sling-load compatibility with the H225 helicopter. Renault is responsible for the platform and electric drive; John Cockerill provides remote-control and autonomous functions. French military trials are being prepared; speed, unloaded mass, battery capacity and price were not disclosed.
