Fran\u00e7ois Provost, PDG du groupe Renault, a ouvertement contest\u00e9 le projet britannique visant \u00e0 supprimer progressivement les voitures neuves \u00e0 essence et diesel d\u2019ici 2030, qualifiant d\u2018\u2019 idiote \u00bb l\u2019id\u00e9e d\u2019interdire les v\u00e9hicules non \u00e9lectriques.<\/p>\n

Ces propos sont surprenants de la part du dirigeant d'un constructeur qui investit des milliards dans la mobilit\u00e9 \u00e9lectrique, mais ils refl\u00e8tent l'approche de plus en plus pragmatique de Renault en mati\u00e8re d'\u00e9lectrification.<\/p>\n

Dans un entretien accord\u00e9 \u00e0 Le Sunday Times<\/em>, M. Provost s'est interrog\u00e9 sur l'opportunit\u00e9 pour les gouvernements d'imposer des \u00e9ch\u00e9ances fixes pour la disparition des moteurs \u00e0 combustion. \u201c Il n'y a pas de date id\u00e9ale, car il est stupide d'interdire les voitures non \u00e9lectriques. C'est stupide \u201d, a-t-il d\u00e9clar\u00e9.<\/p>\n

Ses propos interviennent alors que le gouvernement britannique r\u00e9examine son programme relatif aux v\u00e9hicules z\u00e9ro \u00e9mission (ZEV), qui impose actuellement aux constructeurs d'atteindre une part de 80% des ventes de voitures neuves z\u00e9ro \u00e9mission d'ici 2030, cette part devant passer \u00e0 100% en 2035.<\/p>\n

Le Royaume-Uni s'est engag\u00e9 \u00e0 mettre fin \u00e0 la vente de voitures neuves fonctionnant exclusivement \u00e0 l'essence ou au diesel d'ici 2030, m\u00eame si les hybrides classiques et les hybrides rechargeables pourront continuer \u00e0 \u00eatre commercialis\u00e9s jusqu'en 2035. Le gouvernement envisage d'assouplir les objectifs interm\u00e9diaires suite aux pressions exerc\u00e9es par les constructeurs automobiles.<\/p>\n

M. Provost fait valoir que le fait d'imposer une \u00e9lectrification \u00e0 un rythme plus rapide que ne le permettent les clients et le march\u00e9 risque de rendre les voitures neuves moins abordables. Il souligne \u00e9galement la pression financi\u00e8re qui p\u00e8se sur les constructeurs, d'autant plus que la valeur r\u00e9siduelle des v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques reste incertaine.<\/p>\n

Ne pas abandonner les voitures \u00e9lectriques<\/h4>\n

Cette critique est d\u2019autant plus surprenante que Renault compte parmi les constructeurs europ\u00e9ens les plus engag\u00e9s dans la production de v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques abordables. Ses mod\u00e8les Renault 5, Renault 4 et Twingo constituent le pilier d\u2019une strat\u00e9gie visant \u00e0 rendre la mobilit\u00e9 \u00e9lectrique accessible \u00e0 un public plus large. Le groupe investit \u00e9galement massivement dans la production europ\u00e9enne de v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques et dans les technologies de batteries de nouvelle g\u00e9n\u00e9ration.<\/p>\n

Dans le cadre de son plan strat\u00e9gique \u00ab futuREady \u00bb, pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 en mars, le groupe Renault pr\u00e9voit de lancer 36 nouveaux mod\u00e8les d'ici 2030, dont 16 v\u00e9hicules enti\u00e8rement \u00e9lectriques en Europe. Le constructeur fran\u00e7ais a toutefois renonc\u00e9 \u00e0 son projet de ne proposer plus que des voitures \u00e9lectriques \u00e0 batterie d'ici la fin de la d\u00e9cennie.<\/p>\n

La marque Renault vise plut\u00f4t, d'ici 2030, une r\u00e9partition de ses ventes en Europe compos\u00e9e \u00e0 parts \u00e9gales de v\u00e9hicules 100 % \u00e9lectriques et de v\u00e9hicules hybrides complets. Sa technologie hybride E-Tech restera disponible au-del\u00e0 de cette date.<\/p>\n

Pour M. Provost, la distinction r\u00e9side entre acc\u00e9l\u00e9rer l'\u00e9lectrification et obliger l\u00e9galement les clients \u00e0 adopter une technologie unique avant que les conditions du march\u00e9 ne soient r\u00e9unies.<\/p>\n

La Grande-Bretagne risque de s'\u00e9loigner de l'Europe<\/h4>\n

Les propos de M. Provost rev\u00eatent \u00e9galement une dimension politique plus large. Le patron de Renault souhaite que le Royaume-Uni s'aligne davantage sur les politiques automobiles de l'Union europ\u00e9enne, notamment en ce qui concerne les importations chinoises, les exigences environnementales et le projet de cadre industriel \u00ab Made in Europe \u00bb.<\/p>\n

Ce d\u00e9bat a pris de l'ampleur vendredi dernier, lorsque la France et l'Allemagne ont annonc\u00e9 un compromis sur la l\u00e9gislation europ\u00e9enne relative \u00e0 l'automobile.<\/p>\n

Cet accord pr\u00e9voit une plus grande souplesse concernant les objectifs d'\u00e9missions de l'UE \u00e0 l'horizon 2035, tout en offrant un soutien accru aux v\u00e9hicules fabriqu\u00e9s en Europe. Il ouvre \u00e9galement la possibilit\u00e9 de consid\u00e9rer le Royaume-Uni comme un partenaire industriel de confiance, sous certaines conditions.<\/p>\n

Pour les constructeurs britanniques, cette int\u00e9gration pourrait rev\u00eatir une grande importance. L'Union europ\u00e9enne reste en effet un march\u00e9 d'exportation crucial pour les voitures fabriqu\u00e9es au Royaume-Uni. Toutefois, le compromis franco-allemand n'a pas encore fait l'objet d'une l\u00e9gislation europ\u00e9enne et doit encore faire l'objet d'un accord au niveau de l'UE.<\/p>\n

La position de M. Provost laisse entendre que Renault consid\u00e8re que l'harmonisation r\u00e9glementaire et la comp\u00e9titivit\u00e9 industrielle sont de plus en plus \u00e9troitement li\u00e9es, plut\u00f4t que de traiter les objectifs d'\u00e9lectrification comme un enjeu environnemental isol\u00e9.<\/p>\n

Un exercice d'\u00e9quilibre d\u00e9licat<\/h4>\n

Tout le monde ne partage pas les appels lanc\u00e9s par le secteur en faveur d\u2019une plus grande flexibilit\u00e9. L\u2019organisation environnementale Transport & Environment (T&E) s\u2019y oppose fermement. Elle qualifie le compromis franco-allemand d\u2018\u2019 erreur historique \u00bb.<\/p>\n

L'organisation met en garde contre le fait qu'un assouplissement des objectifs en mati\u00e8re de CO\u2082 pourrait nuire aux industries europ\u00e9ennes des v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques et des batteries, plut\u00f4t que de les prot\u00e9ger. Selon les simulations de T&E, cet accord pourrait faire passer la part des voitures \u00e9lectriques dans les ventes de v\u00e9hicules neufs de l'UE en 2030 de 57% \u00e0 43%, ce qui freinerait les investissements et renforcerait potentiellement la position des concurrents chinois.<\/p>\n

Les constructeurs, quant \u00e0 eux, soulignent la difficult\u00e9 de financer les technologies \u00e9lectriques tout en maintenant les v\u00e9hicules conventionnels \u00e0 un prix abordable et en faisant face \u00e0 la concurrence des marques chinoises en pleine expansion.<\/p>\n

L'approche de Renault vise \u00e0 concilier ces contraintes contradictoires. Le constructeur continue d'investir dans les v\u00e9hicules \u00e9lectriques tout en conservant les hybrides comme une alternative commerciale et technologique importante.<\/p>\n

L'intervention inhabituellement directe du vice-recteur montre \u00e0 quel point le d\u00e9bat sur l'automobile a \u00e9volu\u00e9. M\u00eame les constructeurs qui m\u00e8nent la transition \u00e9lectrique en Europe se demandent de plus en plus si des \u00e9ch\u00e9ances obligatoires suffiront \u00e0 elles seules \u00e0 la mener \u00e0 bien.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
