PRESS INFORMATION 3rd June 2009 DACIA SANDERO MADE AND SOLD IN MOROCCO • Dacia's compact yet spacious Sandero hatchback is to go on sale in Morocco and extend the Dacia product line-up already comprising Logan and Logan MCV. Dacia Sandero will be commercialized on June 18, 2009 and will come with a three-year/100,000km warranty. • The cars for the Moroccan market are built at the Renault group's SOMACA plant in Casablanca. • At the end of April 2009, Dacia was Morocco's second best-selling brand, just after Renault. It has a 16 per cent share of the passenger car market. Logan has been the Moroccan market's best-selling vehicle since 2006 with a total of 48,000 units sold since launch. • With the production of Dacia Sandero in Morocco, the Renault group continues its international expansion. Following the opening of factories in Curitiba (Brazil), Sofasa (Colombia) and Pitesti (Romania), plus Nissan's manufacturing facilities in Rosslyn (South Africa), the SOMACA plant has taken on production of the latest addition to the Entry Programme (Logan platform). • With sales totalling 76,500 cars – chiefly in Europe – since the model's launch in July 2008, Dacia Sandero has succeeded in winning over new customers who are looking for a compact yet spacious and robust hatchback. DACIA IN MOROCCO The launch of the compact Sandero hatchback marks a major step in the growth of the Dacia brand in Morocco. Sandero extends Dacia's model line-up, which already comprises the Logan family saloon and Logan MCV (which went on sale in 2005 and 2008 respectively), and seeks to win over a new category of customer. Indeed, Dacia customers are essentially one-car owners and have traditionally bought used vehicles. They are particularly attentive to price which is the prevailing factor in the decision to purchase. Sandero targets rational, pragmatic motorists who are noticeably younger than buyers of other Dacia models. Dacia Sandero is a compact yet roomy hatchback which, in terms of price, is positioned in the small car segment, although its interior and exterior dimensions are more in keeping with those of a car from the higher compact vehicle category. Sandero goes on sale in Morocco on June 18, 2009, and the value for money represented by its performance/equipment package perfectly match's the brand's philosophy. It comes with a three- year/100,000km warranty. Dacia's 16 per cent share of Morocco's passenger car market as of the end of April, 2009, confirms its status as the country's second best-selling brand . Meanwhile, Logan has been Morocco's best-selling vehicle since 2006 (all brands, all models) with 14,500 units sold in 2008. Dacia Sandero naturally stands to benefit from the positive reputation of its elder sibling Dacia Logan which is widely acclaimed for its reliability and robust design . SOMACA IN DETAIL Dacia Sandero is assembled in the SOMACA factory (Société Marocaine de Construction Automobile) in Casablanca of which the Renault group owns an 80 per cent stake. As is the case with all the Renault group's production facilities, the Moroccan plant is ISO 14001-certified. Like Logan, which has been manufactured in this factory since July 2005, Sandero is produced from CKD (Completely Knocked Down) kits using parts delivered essentially from Romania and other parts localized in Morocco. The local integration rate of Sandero is 40%, the same as Logan. Production of Sandero at the SOMACA plant has been made possible thanks to the site's flexibility and optimizes the factory's capacity. More than 70 per cent of its components are shared with Dacia Logan , a factor which not only facilitates the production of different models on the same line but which has also led to investment-related savings. 2 A total of €16 million was invested for the production of Sandero at the SOMACA factory. This investment was overseen by engineers and technical experts from Renault and included the creation of a specific body shop , an increase in the capacity of the paint shop , as well as the modernization of a rolling road test-bed at the end of the assembly line. The Sanderos produced at the SOMACA factory are for the Moroccan market. SANDERO: AN ENTRY PROGRAMME VEHICLE AIMED AT WINNING OVER NEW CUSTOMERS Sandero is the fifth vehicle of the Entry Programme (Logan platform) and comes after the Logan family saloon, Logan MCV and the Logan van and Logan pick-up utility vehicles. Sandero marks a new step in the Renault group's international deployment. It was initially produced and sold in the Mercosur region but – like Logan – it has a global calling. 140,000 Sanderos have been sold globally under Renault and Dacia badges since launch. In 2008, the Dacia version of Sandero was produced at the Pitesti plant in Romania, chiefly for the European markets, before arriving in South Africa at the beginning of 2009. It is now the turn of Morocco to produce and market this compact hatchback which measures four metres in length. Since September 2004, more than 1.4 million Entry Programme vehicles have been sold across the world , badged either as Renaults or Dacias. Today, vehicles based on the Logan platform are produced in eight countries: Romania, Russia, Morocco, Colombia, Iran, India, Brazil and South Africa.

  • The Dacia Story Continues

    The Dacia Story Continues

    PRESS RELEASE October 2, 2008 THE DACIA STORY CONTINUES • Dacia launches Dacia eco², proof that marketing affordable cars that are respectful of the environment is achievable. • 53% of Dacia vehicles sold in Western and Central Europe during the first half of 2008 would today qualify for the Dacia eco² signature. • The Dacia range has seen the addition of two new models in 2008: Dacia Logan Pick-up, which was introduced in March, and Dacia Sandero, which went on sale in June. Two other models have been, or will shortly be renewed: Logan (in July) and Logan MCV (November). • The Brand continues to win over new customers across the globe: Dacia's worldwide sales over the first six months of 2008 were up 13.6%. • The Brand's growth in Western Europe has resulted in changes to the network, with a gradual shift towards separate Dacia showrooms. DACIA eco²: ECONOMICAL AND ECOLOGICAL Logan eco² Concept – which is on show on Dacia's stand at the Paris Motor Show – profited from the Michelin- organized 2007 Challenge Bibendum in Shanghai, China, to demonstrate that it is possible to combine economical and ecological considerations without detracting from performance and equipment. The event saw Logan eco² Concept return combined cycle CO2 emissions of just 71g/km following optimization work to its technical specification and the introduction of inexpensive technical solutions. Today, a year and a half after the launch of the Renault eco² badge, Dacia has launched the Dacia eco² signature. The Brand's strong growth means that it is making a direct contribution to the commitment set out in the Renault Commitment 2009 plan to figure among the top-three carmakers with regard to CO2 emissions.

WLTP represents a positive change to provide consumers with fuel economy and emissions data which is more representative of the results you may achieve in real life. 5 Dacia Sandero Stepway Stand out from the crowd If you’re tired of the same old family cars, then the Sandero Stepway is a breath of fresh air. Whether you’re on the school run or the open road, it’s not short on style either. For starters there’s the raised ride height. It really puts you in the driving seat with a clearer view of whatever’s ahead. Then there are the 16” wheels, 16’’ ‘Stepway’ skid plates, and black wheelarch extensions and Design Wheels side sill.

    Groupe Renault Celebrates 1,000,000Th Vehicle Produced at the Tangier Plant

    COMMUNIQUÉ DE PRESSE 2017­07­10 GROUPE RENAULT CELEBRATES 1,000,000TH VEHICLE PRODUCED AT THE TANGIER PLANT #ONEMILLIONTANGIER For the digital press file, click here The Tangier plant has produced its millionth vehicle, a Dacia Lodgy. A landmark figure reached in just over five years following the plant’s inauguration in 2012. The design of this efficient and eco­friendly plant, which is unrivalled in the automobile industry, is based on two pillars: zero CO2 emissions and zero industrial effluent discharges. Tangier, Morocco, July 10, 2017 – Groupe Renault is proud to be able to celebrate the production of the millionth vehicle at the Renault­Nissan plant in Tangier: a five­seat, Azurite Blue Dacia Lodgy powered by a diesel engine and sold to a customer in Turkey. In all, 474,840 Sanderos, 320,078 Dokkers and 193,181 Lodgys have been manufactured in Tangier since the plant’s inauguration in 2012. In addition to covering the Moroccan market, the models built at the factory are exported to more than 73 destinations. The inauguration of the Tangier plant’s first production line in February 2012, in the presence of His Majesty the King Mohammed VI and Carlos Ghosn, CEO, Groupe Renault, and the launch of a second line in 2013, marked a turning point in Morocco’s automotive sector. Indeed, it was the birth of the biggest car manufacturing plant south of the Mediterranean. Today, the plant operates in three eight­hour shifts per day, six days a week, with an annual production capacity of 340,000 vehicles. The Renault­Nissan Tangier plant, a main driver of the Moroccan economy, supports Dacia brand growth by exporting the majority of its production.
