Groupe Renault
Established in 1898, Groupe Renault is an international multi-brand group, selling close to 3.7 million vehicles in 127 countries in 2018, with 36 manufacturing sites, 12,700 points of sales and employing more than 120,000 people.
To meet the major technological challenges of the future and continue its strategy of profitable growth, the Group is harnessing its international growth and the complementary fit of its five brands, together with electric vehicles and the unique Alliance with Nissan and Mitsubishi. With a new team in Formula 1 and a strong commitment to Formula E, Renault sees motorsport as a vector of innovation and brand awareness.
In 1998, the Group opened its Technocentre, a hub for the design and development of Renault vehicles. It brings several departments of the company to work together: Design, Engineering, R&D, Manufacturing, etc. In this vast campus, teams look into every stage of a vehicle life cycle before starting production in the plant. Cars are imagined, adapted, and tested thanks to the creativity of many competent hands.
