Boulogne-Billancourt, France, July 23, 2025

Renault Brand

The Renault brand shows a growth in its global sales of +2.7% compared to the first half of 2024 with 808,413 vehicles sold worldwide.

Outside Europe, the brand grew by 16.3% compared to the first half of 2024, in a market up by +4.7%, driven by the commercial success of the vehicles from the Renault International Game Plan 2027. Renault is the leading French car brand worldwide, with 36% of its sales now made outside Europe.

  • In Latin America: sales up by 24%, notably thanks to Kardian. In Brazil, sales increase by 8.8% and in Argentina by +96.7%. Renault ranks No. 1 in Colombia with a 14.6% market share.
  • In Morocco: sales up by 48%, benefiting from the launch of Kardian.
  • In South Korea: sales up by 150% thanks to Grand Koleos. The model has also just been launched in Mexico under the name Koleos, continuing its global deployment.

In Europe, the brand gains a rank and becomes the second brand, with a market share of 6.7%. Clio is the best-selling vehicle in Europe across all channels.

In a PC market down by 1.0% vs H1 2024, Renault grew by 8.4% and achieved the strongest sales growth among TOP15 brands.

Concerning commercial vehicles, Renault’s sales dropped by 29% due to a declining market (-13%), the end of life of Renault Express in Europe (these sales have not yet been fully compensated by Renault Kangoo), and an incomplete diversity of the New Renault Master range. The brand still maintains its second position in the European LCV market.

Renault continues its electrification strategy with two engine offerings. For electric vehicles, sales increased by 57% in a European market up by +24,9%, driven notably by the Renault 5 E-Tech electric, the best-selling B-segment electric vehicle in Europe with nearly 49,000 vehicles sold since its launch. Renault is the leading brand in France for electric vehicles.

Regarding hybrid offerings, Renault confirms its second place in the European hybrid (HEV) market. The brand recorded a growth of more than 36%. The full hybrid E-Tech technology now represents more than 41% of Renault’s PC sales, and the brand is approaching the symbolic milestone of one million full hybrid E-Tech vehicles sold.

In the C and higher segments, which represent 40.1% of the sales mix in the first half of 2025 (+0.4 points), and notably in the C-SUV and D-SUV segments, the Renault brand is accelerating (+52% compared to the first half of 2024), driven particularly by Austral, Espace, and Rafale.

In the second half of the year, Renault will continue to build on its solid foundations with new launches. In Europe, the brand will continue its electric offensive with the €25,000 version of Renault 5 E-Tech and the commercial debut of Renault 4 E-Tech. In hybrids, Renault launched the facelifted versions of Austral and Espace in the spring and introduced two new-generation full hybrid engines this summer, including the new 160 E-Tech full hybrid engine, which equips the New Captur and New Symbioz. Internationally, the brand will benefit from the launch of Boreal, unveiled on July 10, which deployment in more than 70 countries will begin at the end of 2025 in Brazil. At the same time, New Koleos and Kardian will continue their expansion into new markets.

Dacia Brand

In the first half of 2025, the brand’s global sales (356,084 units) slightly declined compared to the first half of 2024 (-0.7%), due to Duster in Turkey now being sold under the Renault brand. However, it still holds a PC+LCV market share of 4.1%.

  • With 151,948 vehicles sold worldwide in the first half of 2025, Dacia Sandero remains the best-selling model in Europe this year (PC), across all customer channels. Sandero has been the best-selling vehicle to retail customers in Europe since 2017.
  • With 108,510 units sold worldwide, Dacia Duster remains the No. 1 SUV sold to retail customers in Europe. The 3rd generation of Duster has recorded nearly 200,000 orders since its launch a year ago.
  • Dacia Spring recorded 19,452 vehicles sold in the first half of 2025, an increase of 62.5% compared to the first half of 2024. In total, more than 180,000 customers have become Spring owners since its launch, which remains the most accessible 100% electric offering on the market.
  • Dacia Jogger recorded 42,381 units sold worldwide, down compared to the first half of 2024, in the non-SUV C-segment also in decline.
  • Dacia Bigster, for which orders have been open since January 2025, has recorded a remarkable performance since its launch with 17,329 registered units. For this model, 69% of sales are in the hybrid 155 engine, and 88% in the highest trims (Extreme and Journey). Finally, Bigster is a real asset for customer acquisition with 80% of its French customers coming from competitors.

In Europe, in the PC market, Dacia’s sales increased by 1.1% with a total of 308,957 registrations and a market share of 4.5% (up by 0.1 point). The brand maintains its 9th place in the PC market and its 10th place in the PC+LCV market.

Furthermore, Dacia strengthens its position on the European podium of retail customer sales, thanks to its 5 models, and with the best market conquest and loyalty rates.

The brand continues its electrification and recorded 23.5% of its registrations in electrified engines in the first half of 2025, up by 14.4 points compared to the first half of 2024. Hybrid vehicles represent 17.2% of its sales, up by 11.8 points, notably thanks to the successful Duster hybrid. Spring sales increased bringing the share of electric vehicles to 6.2% of Dacia’s total sales (+2.6 points vs H1 2024). 

Alpine Brand

Alpine continues its growth in the first half of 2025 with 5,015 registrations, up by 85% compared to the first half of 2024.

The A290 boosts the brand’s sales with 3,699 registrations worldwide. The very first Alpine city car, elected Car of the Year 2025, recorded 2,327 registrations in France.

In the two-seater sports coupé market, Alpine confirms its leading position in Europe with 1,181 A110 registrations (46% market share).

In 2025, the brand will have nearly 200 Alpine Stores with a new store opening in Ireland this summer.
