The Renault brand delivered a strong performance in 2025, with 1,628,030 vehicles sold worldwide (+3.2% increase PC+LCV vs 2024), driven by a 10% increase in global passenger car sales (1,292,000 units).

“This marks the third consecutive year of growth for the Renault brand, confirming the consistency and success of its commercial strategy, with steady and progressive growth throughout the year (H1: +2.7%, H2: +3.8%),” the press release states.

“With three consecutive years of growth and a strong rise in global passenger car sales, Renault has demonstrated the strength and consistency of its strategy,” says Ivan Segal, Global Sales and Operations Director of the Renault brand.

“Our electrification offensive and value-driven approach are delivering concrete results, positioning Renault as a leading and innovative brand. In 2025, the complementarity of European growth and international expansion drove sustainable performance, meeting customer expectations worldwide with products tailored to each market,” he adds.

Europe: growth driven by electrification

Passenger car sales rose by +7.4% (vs. +2.3% for the market), lifting the brand’s European PC market share by +0.3 point year-on-year to 5.7%.

“Renault stands out as one of the few European brands continuing to grow amid intensifying competition. This performance reflects the success of Renault’s dual approach to electrification, combining EVs and full hybrids to meet diverse customer needs,” the company explains.

In 2025, electrified vehicles accounted for 60% of Renault’s sales in Europe, up 12 points from last year. Electric vehicles surged by 72.2%, with 151,939 sold, accounting for 20.2% of PC sales in a market that grew by 29.8%. Renault ranked number one EV brand in France and number one EV on B-segment in Europe.

Full-hybrid sales rose by 17.0%, reaching 287,374 vehicles sold and representing 38.4% of PC sales, in a market up by 9.0%. The brand has sold over one million E-Tech hybrids since 2020 and ranked as the number two brand in the European hybrid vehicle market in 2025.

This results also in Renault being among the best-in-class for CO₂ emissions: less than 90g CO₂ on average in Europe. Renault continued to lead the B-hatchback segment and ranked second place overall in the B-segment, “demonstrating strong competitiveness against both historical rivals and new market entrants”.

Renault’s European best-sellers were the Renault 5 E-Tech electric, which maintained its strong trajectory, with over 100,000 vehicles sold since launch. It is the number one EV in the B-segment in Europe. The Scenic E-Tech electric recorded 38,111 sales in Europe (+58.1% vs. 2024).

Concerning ICE cars, Clio 5 sales increased by 4.5% vs. 2024, reaching 243,401 units in its final year on the market and ranking as the number two passenger car in Europe after the Dacia Sandero. Symbioz has become Renault’s best-selling full-hybrid model, with 88,523 units sold since launch.

Outside Europe

Launched in 2023, Renault’s strategy to strengthen the brand’s global footprint delivered another year of strong results in 2025, with sales outside Europe growing by +11.7% (621,435 vehicles sold), representing 38% of total brand volumes. This results in Renault remaining the number one French car brand worldwide.

In Latin America, sales rose by 11.3% (272,600 units), driven by Kardian’s success. In Turkey, Renault ranked number one with +8.0% growth and 144,331 sales, supported by a strong H2 performance and Duster success (in some countries outside Europe, the Dacia Duster is sold under the Renault name).

In South Korea, sales more than doubled to 52,300 units (+55.9%), led by Grand Koleos (40,877 sales). In Morocco, Renault achieved 44.8% growth, selling 41,100 vehicles, with market share up 1.4 percentage points to 17.4%, supported once again by Kardian’s success.

In India, Renault finally recorded a 18.3% year-on-year increase in the second half of 2025, with Q4 sales growing by 27.4%, reflecting a clear turnaround in market traction.

LCVs: signs of recovery

Worldwide LCV sales totaled 336,505 units, down 16.5%, partially due to the Express phase-out and the gradual ramp-up of the new Master range. After a challenging first half, Renault Light Commercial Vehicles (LCV) is showing signs of progressive recovery in 2025, with sales improving each quarter: H2 at -9.4% versus H1 at -22.7%.

In Europe, Renault LCV ranked second, with 244,900 sales. Strong performances in Latin America with 59,800 sales (+17.2%). Kangoo Van sales increased by +8,4% (63,900 units), putting Kangoo on the podium of the European small van segment.

Electric LCVs continued to gain traction, representing 10.1% of total LCV sales, up 6 points versus last year. Renault’s LCV EV sales grew by 90%, supported by the launch of the New Master E-Tech, already positioned on electric large van podiums.

Renault Group

In 2025, Renault Group sold 2,336,807 vehicles worldwide (+3.2% in a market up 1.6%), with all three of its complementary brands growing higher than the market. Renault: 1,628,030 vehicles (+3.2% vs. 2024). Dacia: 697,408 vehicles (+3.1% vs. 2024).  Alpine exceeded 10,000 registrations for the first time (10,970 vehicles), more than doubling year-over-year (+139.2%). We’ll come back to the specific results of Dacia and Alpine later.

“The Group’s commercial results reflect the alignment between our value-oriented product plan, disciplined commercial policy, and consistent strategy. This year, international performance complements our European growth, and the complementarity of our brands and technologies is a strength enabling us to meet the evolving needs of customers,” said Fabrice Cambolive, Chief Growth Officer of Renault Group.

 “Our two-legs powertrain strategy is now deployed across the Group: Renault is a best-in-class generalist brand in terms of CO₂ emissions, with two-thirds of its sales electrified (EV and HEV), while Dacia is accelerating in hybrid,” he added.

“The ability to combine strong commercial performance with electrification is driven by two true game changers: our hybrid technologies, simultaneously meeting customer needs and CO₂ regulation targets, and our 100% EV platforms, which enhance product appeal and sales,” Cambolive concluded.
