Renault's state-of-the-art manufacturing plant in Chennai has played a pivotal role in this remarkable accomplishment. With a production capacity of 480,000 units per annum, the facility stands as a testament to Renault's relentless pursuit of excellence and innovation. The company has made substantial investments in manufacturing, technology, and talent, creating a robust production infrastructure that ensures the highest standards of quality and efficiency. The Renault-Nissan alliance has committed major investment of INR 5,300 crore to support development of six products.

Renault’s manufacturing facility along with its vast ecosystem of multi-tier suppliers and dealers, contributed significantly to the economy, society and nation-building. Aligned to the Government of India’s Make-in-India vision, the Company has over the years, strengthened its exports. Currently,
Renault India offers three passenger vehicle models, including the popular KWID, KIGER and TRIBER for its customers in India and exports to 14 countries across SAARC, Asia Pacific, Indian Oceanic Region, South Africa and East Africa region.

As Renault India celebrates this remarkable milestone, it reaffirms its commitment to delivering high-quality vehicles and exceptional customer experiences. All the models in the Renault range today are not only equipped with high-tech features & safety but also offer exciting customer benefits on purchase.

Renault as a brand is also offering to its existing owners an outstanding loyalty program which motivates current Renault vehicle owners a never-before opportunity to upgrade to or own a new Renault vehicle with enhanced benefits, designed specifically for them. With a strong foundation, an expanding network, and a customer-centric approach, Renault is poised for continued success and growth in the Indian automotive market.

Renault India has attained this significant milestone by offering an innovative and disruptive product portfolio, persistent commitment towards customer satisfaction, network expansion, rural focused strategy, and pioneering marketing initiatives.

This accomplishment highlights the unwavering commitment of Renault India to deliver unique products, cutting-edge technology, and unparalleled customer experiences. With a strong emphasis on quality, safety and innovation, the company has captivated consumers' sentiments and gained the trust of customers in India.

Renault India in the past 11 years has consistently pushed limits and introduced some industry-first, advanced and enhanced safety features across its product offerings. The company's diverse product portfolio has catered to the varying needs and preferences of customers in the country.

In addition to offering an exceptional product range, Renault India has also fostered strong partnerships with dealerships across the country, ensuring an unmatched ownership experience for customers. The company's dedicated network of over 450 plus sales and 530 service touchpoints, played a crucial role in providing support and personalized service to every customer.
