Renault Alpine Sales : 2017-2025

The origional Renault Alpine A106 came out in 1955 and the Alpine name has been used at various times for sporty models. The 2017 Alpine A110 is the most recent iteration, a lightweight, mid-engined sports car as a performance sub brand for Renault.

The A110 has now been joined by the A290, a performance focused electric hatch based on the Renault 5 E-Tech. 

A290 deliveries started at the end of 2024 so the 2025 year is where the A290's impact was felt. It certainly gave the niche brand a lift in volume. 

The A106 and A290 between them have run up 34,549 sales up until the end of 2025. There isn't a model breakdown but one might assume the 2025 split was 60/40 in favour of the A290.

For now it relies on Europe for its sales with plans to expand from there. For instance, the US market could be a new one for the marque in 2027. 

In 2026, the A390 electric crossover using the Scenic E-Tech / Nissan Ariya platform arrives to make it three in the Alpine range.

Dacia PC/LCV Sales : 2019-2025

The Dacia brand seems to have hit a ceiling at around the 700,000 units. Some Dacia models are sold under the Renault brand though. 

It was in 2022 that Renault last provided model breakdowns allowing us to see how many Dacias were sold as Renaults. It was 14.1% of Renault sales with Dacia based models.

That was 199,466 units in total and that number added to the 2022 figure brings it up to 773,539. 

That's a quarter of Dacia vehicles sold as Renaults for the year. 

Dacia's contribution to the Renault Group sales is substantial, more than the figures above would suggest. 

Full credit to Renault for exploiting that opportunity in certain regions of the world. Creating the modern day Dacia brand was a bold and astute move by Carlos Ghosn.

Renault PC/LCV Sales : 2019-2025

To the right is passenger car and light commercial sales. There was a steep decline and now it seems a recovery is underway.

Renault used to give a model breakdown so we could get a better understanding of what was happening but they don't anymore. I think that's a shame.

They gave more than other car manufacturers but giving out detailed data is a bold thing to do and eventually they pulled the plug. I still have the data but it's no longer current.
