“This position of market leader is proof that the combination of our powertrain strategy – with our range of Energy engines – and our electric vehicle strategy is bearing fruit. Thanks to these innovations, Renault Group is achieving tangible results and maintaining its objective to significantly reduce the long-term environmental footprint of its activities,” said Jean-Philippe Hermine, director of Renault’s environmental plan.

Renault has been actively developing low emissions tech for its cars. When comparing the current Clio to the previous generation, the current average Clio has emissions 18.5g/km of CO2 lower than the average previous generation model.

In the first half of 2012, the average Renault registered in the EU had 125.5g/km of CO2 emissions, almost 10g/km higher than this year.
