Groupe Renault acknowledges the decision to communicate the DGCCRF’s conclusions to the public prosecutor in the scope of the “diesel” matter

Concurrently with the works of the independent technical commission, the DGCCRF has conducted investigations concerning the automotive industry, of which Renault was informed in January 2016.

The DGCCRF has decided to communicate its conclusions to the Public Prosecutor, who now has to decide the steps to be taken, as the case may be.

Groupe Renault reasserts its determination to enforce its rights to defend the company’s corporate interest, as well as its employees and shareholders.

In this respect, the Group reminds its constant position:

1- Renault complies with French and European regulations.

2- Renault vehicles are all and have always been homologated in accordance with the laws and regulations. They are compliant with the applicable standards.

3- Renault vehicles are not equipped with cheating software affecting anti-pollution systems.

4- The States, European Commission, Regulation Authorities and automotive manufacturers all share the opinion that the requirements of the applicable regulations need to be strengthened. This is the purpose of the future Euro6d Regulation.

Groupe Renault reminds that in March 2016 it submitted to the panel of the independent technical commission a complete nitrogen oxide (NOx) emission reduction plan for its Euro6b diesel vehicles in customer use, which has been deemed transparent, satisfactory and credible.
