Yeah, I already contacted Renault to ask if there's a possibility for a release.
I guess it's also possible to dump the software of the car to extract the sound files at some point.

I got a reply from Renault:
We can advise you the following. In this case, it is purely a matter of composing the acoustic signals that the car gives for different functions, like the fixed sound that you hear when the doors are unlocked, or the warning signal of the lane assist. So these are short acoustic signals and not actual music, so no CD of this will be released.
So it'll be a sound design with sound effects and everything. No music.

A release in the style of Radiophonie with lots of Renault experiments would be great. Make for a good selection of sounds to add to my phone as text alerts!

Video interview - Jean-Michel Jarre "the car is an ideal mini auditorium"
The major motor shows no longer have the exclusivity of concept cars. Thus, Renault took advantage of the last edition of Vivatech to exhibit its Scenic Vision, which foreshadows the design of the manufacturer's future cars. This ephemeral temple of technology was also the perfect opportunity to promote the partnership concluded with the musician Jean-Michel Jarre.

Creating the sound of electric cars: Renault and Jean-Michel Jarre collaborate
Part of the process saw composers and sound designers begin with music from Oxymore, Jean-Michel Jarre’s latest album, in order to create their original outline for the sounds in electric vehicles.
Discussing the project, Jarre said: “Cars are great spaces in which you can create synergies between tech and the environment. Renault is a fast-changing car manufacturer and I truly wish to incorporate all my skills as a sound engineer into this world of myriad sound experiences.”

Renault Scénic e-Tech will have its world premiere at the IAA Mobility 2023 show in Munich on September 4. Obviously, this new Renault Scénic e-Tech will, like Renault’s electric range, be equipped with a “sound design” signed by a certain Jean-Michel Jarre.
