Background
Mobilize is a brand of the Renault group dedicated to passenger transport, such as vehicles reserved only for professional drivers (especially taxi drivers) or car-sharing.
The first Mobilize Limo fleet, consisting of 40 units, was put into service in mid-2022 by Cabify.{{Cite web|url=https://fr.media.mobilize.com/actualites/cabify-met-en-service-la-premiere-flotte-de-quarante-mobilize-limo-a-madrid-et-devient-ainsi-le-premier-client-de-mobilize-driver-solutions-6d7e-e3532.html|title=Cabify met en service la première flotte de quarante Mobilize Limo à Madrid et...|website=fr.media.mobilize.com|access-date=2 July 2022}}

The JMEV Yi is the version available for the Chinese market of the Mobilize Limo, also available with a 147-horsepower and an expected NEDC range of up to {{cvt|400|km}}.{{Cite web|date=2021-05-17|title=New Electric Cars From China - May 2021 - Part 2|url=https://carnewschina.com/2021/05/17/new-electric-cars-from-china-may-2021-part-2/|access-date=2021-09-21|website=CarNewsChina.com|language=en-US}}{{Cite web|title=Ezoom Yi Is A New Electric Sedan From China With Renault Connections|url=https://insideevs.com/news/466506/ezoom-jianglin-renault-electric-sedan-china/|access-date=2021-09-21|website=InsideEVs|language=en}}
In September 2021, Renault announced its intention to market the Yi in Europe as a subscription-only vehicle for professional drivers, under the name Mobilize Limo.{{Cite web|title=Renault Unveils Stylish Electric Sedan You Can't Actually Buy|url=https://www.motor1.com/news/529322/renault-mobilize-limo-ev-sedan/|access-date=2021-09-21|website=Motor1.com|language=en}}{{Cite web|title=Renault Group and Jiangling Motors collaborate to build an all electric sedan, the Mobilize Limo|url=https://www.overdrive.in/news-cars-auto/renault-group-and-jiangling-motors-collaborate-to-build-an-all-electric-sedan-the-mobilize-limo/|access-date=2021-09-21|website=Overdrive|language=en}}
The Mobiize Limo was discontinued in 2023, as Mobilize judged the subscription-only model had no commercial potential for now.
