Shaping the future our action plan
Action 3. Deploy hybrid, natural gas and LPG technologies across all brandsACTION #3
Deploy hybrid, natural gas and LPG technologies across all brands
WHY?
Renault Group is developing low-emissions engines (E-TECH Hybrid and gas) to complement its offer of electric vehicles. Exclusively developed by the Group, E-TECH Hybrid reduces the hybrid engine’s fuel consumption by 40% compared with an equivalent internal combustion engine*. Its E-TECH Plug-in Hybrid version delivers a zero-emissions mobility solution. Deploying a range of gas-powered vehicles enables Renault Group to offer solutions for a variety of uses and driving environments, using alternative fuels such as natural gas for vehicles (NGV) and liquified petroleum gas (LPG), which generate less CO2 than gasoline. Emissions from these vehicles can be further reduced by 30% to 100% in some countries, where new decarbonized production methods transform waste.
HOW?
DEVELOP ALTERNATIVE POWERTRAINS
Biogas-powered light vehicles in Europe and internationally.
