  • Renault Not to End Tie-Up with Mahindra & Mahindra
    Mar 18, 2010 16:18 IST Renault not to end tie-up with Mahindra & Mahindra French auto major Renault on Wednesday said it was not going to end tie-up with Mahindra & Mahindra over their joint venture that sells Logan, stressing that the car will continue to ply on the Indian roads. The company said that it will announce details of reworked pact with M&M by April. Mahindra Renault Pvt Ltd, the joint venture in which the French automaker holds 49 per cent, has been struggling to sell Logan with sales declining to just 4,981 units in April- February 2009-10, down 60.03 per cent from the year-ago period. While M&M wants to tweak the specifications of Logan to make it smaller in order to qualify for excise benefits on small cars, Renault has been against it thereby putting strain on their partnership. “We are discussing (with M&M) how to reposition the car and how to simplify the organisation and it looks like we need to be more nimble and little fast with the market,” Renault Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Carlos Ghosn said. He said so far the conclusion has not been drawn. “The day we reach a conclusion we will communicate with you...it is too early to talk to you on what decision will be taken.” On the poor sales performance of Logan, Ghosn said: “We are obviously not very satisfied with the evolution of sales of Logan and we have shared it with M&M.” He, however, reiterated that despite the differences with M&M, the Logan will stay in Indian market.

It is the sixth time that Renault has won this highly-prized accolade. Previous winners were the Renault 5GT Turbo in 1985, Clio 16S (1991), Spider Renault Sport (1996), Clio Renault Sport (2000) and Mégane F1 Team R26 (2007). Renault is the carmaker which has won the highest number of 'Sports Model of the Year' titles since Echappement introduced the award in 1982. The Renault Sport Technologies-developed Mégane R26.R is the sportiest version of the Mégane Renault Sport line-up.

Readers of the magazine also sent in votes to produce an initial shortlist of 10 models from a list of cars that had come to market in the past year. The 10 short-listed models were then put through their paces on stages used by the French Championship's Rallye du Limousin, as well as round the Mornay circuit in the Creuse region of western France. Echappement's editorial staff and the magazine's guest readers profited from these tests to assess the performance of the different cars, while rally driver Sébastien Ogier was on hand to bring his expertise to the table when it came to pushing each model to the limit.
