  • Renault India already has a market share which is close to 4% in the passenger vehicle segment Elaborating further Mamillapalle quoted ‘the company is getting into an “attack mode” to garner market share.
  • Renault currently has around 320 dealerships in India. The company is also planning to have around 700 strong sales network across the country by 2022.
