The local production of these models allows Renault to offer competitively priced cars that are manufactured with the specific needs of the Russian market in mind.not only in the Entry segment, but also in C and SUV categories. It is worth noting that the elegant Fluence sedan went on sale on the Russian market in April of this year. Customers appreciated this car for its size, characteristics and position between C and D-segment. The Mégane hatchback has been sold in Russia since May this year, expanding Renault's C-segment offer. Renault Duster is a reliable, safe, comfortable, easy to drive, and affordable 4x4.

Concept is a precursor to the Fluence electric car, which will have a range of up to 160 km, and zero CO2 emissions. 2 A BRAND THAT MAKES "PEOPLE'S CARS" Renault is so popular in Russia first and foremost thanks to its star models, Logan and Sandero, which are both prime examples of an unrivalled balance between price and quality. Renault Logan is the best-selling foreign car in Russia. Renault Sandero has already sold in large numbers since its launch in Russia in March 2010, It is largely thanks to these two models that Renault has reached the 4th place in car sales in the Russian market. Both models target the budget (category), which occupies one third of the Russian car market, and more than 80% of Renault sales in Russia. More than 290,000 people have bought a Logan since its release in 2005. More than 9,000 Sanderos have been sold since their release in March 2010. Renault will expand its offering to the Russian market in September 2010, where the proportion of automatic cars represents 32%, with the long-awaited release of the Logan and Sandero automatic models. Renault has released an unprecedented number of new models onto the Russian market this year: - Six new models have debuted in the first 6 months alone: the updated Logan and new Sandero urban hatchback are the company's best offerings in the budget range. The category C range has also been completely updated: the elegant Fluence sedan, the new Megane and the compact Scenic , as well as the Megane Coupe all went on sale at the end of last year. And for fans of "hot hatchbacks", the new Renault Clio Sport has been available since June. - Renault is continuing to update its entire range during the second half of this year, with the immediate release of two new commercial models: the new Kangoo has just gone on sale, and the new Trafic will be available in Russia this fall. Not forgetting of course, the most eagerly awaited of all Renault's new releases, the Latitude business class sedan, which will soon be the flagship model of the company's new vehicle range. Renault has 120 official points of sales throughout Russia. RUSSIA – A KEY MARKET FOR RENAULT Russia is a strategic market for Renault and the Renault-Nissan alliance. Together the Renault- Nissan alliance and AvtoVaz plan to capture 40% of the Russian market by 2015. With three production sites in Russia, the partnership will have an overall production capacity of 1.3 million cars in 2012: the Moscow Renault plant (production capacity 160,000 cars per year), the Nissan plant in St Petersburg (50 000 cars per year) and AvtoVaz' production facility in Togliatti (1,1 million cars per year). The partners are currently implementing a production system for the Alliance in the Togliatti plant and a joint production line for the manufacture of cars based on the B0 (Logan) platform, 3 with a capacity of 350 000 vehicles per year. Each of the three brands will produce models of their car range on this production line. Lada will be the first of the three carmakers to produce its vans and estate cars using the production line. In addition the Renault-Nissan Alliance and AvtoVas united their quality and supplier development teams in March 2010. The joint team is working on making quality improvements to the Russian supplier base. The qualitative and quantitative development of suppliers in Russia, a country where local production is key to success, will be advantageous to all the partners. The goal for all three companies is to have 74% of components manufactured locally for the joint production line. 4 WORLD PREMIER RENAULT LATITUDE: THE WORLD OF BUSINESS CLASS CARS Renault is giving the world premier to its new status oriented sedan in Moscow. This elegant car combines nicely balanced proportions, with classic design, generous exterior dimensions, roominess as well a large boot compartment.

  • Renault Fluence Z.E. and Kangoo Express Z.E.: Finalized Designs Revealed and Pre-Reservations Open
    COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE April 15, 2010 RENAULT FLUENCE Z.E. AND KANGOO EXPRESS Z.E.: FINALIZED DESIGNS REVEALED AND PRE-RESERVATIONS OPEN Renault has unveiled the finalized designs of Fluence Z.E. and Kangoo Express Z.E., while customers wishing to be among the first to run on electrical power can pre-reserve their vehicle at www.renault-ze.com . The simple act of registration allows prospective buyers to choose their electric vehicle and benefit from priority availability as soon as it comes onto the market. Aware of the impact that motor vehicles can have on the environment over their complete life cycle, Renault has been working actively for many years to achieve ongoing improvements regarding the ecological footprint of a vehicle at every phase of its life (production, on-road use, recycling). As demonstrated by its Renault eco² programme in favour of the environment, Renault believes it is essential to ensure that the most effective technologies are available to as many motorists as possible at an affordable price. Electric vehicles represent a clean-break solution aimed at making CO 2 emissions-free mobility in use, except wear parts, available to all. In its bid to become the number one low CO 2 European carmaker, Renault is working on two main fronts: the introduction of new technologies for internal combustion engines and transmissions, and an unprecedented commitment to all-electric vehicles. Renault estimates that electric vehicles will account for 10 per cent of the world market by 2020. The Alliance is investing €4 billion in its zero emissions programme and a 2,000-strong team (1,000 at Renault and 1,000 at Nissan) is already working on electric vehicles.

    Newsletter # 12 16 June 2010 RENAULT Sport & A lpine EXPO Brisbane – 9 July to 18 July 2010 What’s it all about? If you missed the earlier RSAE Newsletters and are wondering what the RSAE is all about, please go to page 16. Something Old – Renault 4CV/750 Something New – Renault Koleos In the article on the Renault Nepta in Newsletter # 7, we asked the question: How do you get in? I bet that you didn’t guess!! It is a stunning looking car, but I doubt the practicality of those doors. Still, with a show car that is not intended for production, practicality comes a very poor second to stunning appearance which the Nepta undoubtedly achieves! Now, one more question: Who was Louise Berthe Magien? For the answer, see Newsletter # 13! June 2 (Reuters) - French carmaker Renault (RENA.PA) and its Japanese Partner Nissan (7201.T) should together become the world's third-biggest car manufacturer this year, Renault Chief Executive Carlos Ghosn told the Financial Times. CYCLICAL CONSUMER GOODS Ghosn was quoted as saying that he expected the global industry to make and sell 70 million light vehicles in 2010, a slight tweak to the 69-70 million forecast he gave at the Detroit Economic Club last week. "Very likely this year, we should be in the top three," Ghosn said in the FT's Wednesday edition, predicting sales of nearly 7 million cars from Renault, Nissan and their Russian partner Avtovaz (AVAZ.MM). Renault would rank behind Germany's Volkswagen (VOWG_p.DE) and its Japanese partner Suzuki (7269.T), and Japanese carmaker Toyota (7203.T).
