Renault has indeed just obtained the macaroon “OFG” for three of its latest 100% electric new products: Renault 5 E-Tech Electric, Renault Scénic E-Tech Electric et Renault 4 E-Tech Electric. Mainly manufactured in the North, these models demonstrate that the transition to electric mobility is not incompatible with preservation of our industrial flagships.

For its part, the news Renault 4 E-Tech Electric perpetuates the spirit of this legendary model while modernizing it for a 100% electric era. Star of the 2024 Paris World Cup, it is produced at the Maubeuge Manufacture, one of the three sites of the Ampere ElectriCity Cluster. Its share of added value produced in France reaches 69%.
