The Renault Group has acquired the remaining 51% of the Chennai plant in India belonging to its partner Nissan and opened the largest design centre outside France. The opening of this design centre, which marks an important turning point for Renault in India, is part of the brand’s new strategy for expansion in the Indian market. ‘Having a dedicated design studio is crucial to understanding the nuances of the market, listening to its needs and building on its strengths,’ said Laurens van den Acker, Chief Design Officer of the Renault Group.
After a considerable transformation, the Renault Design Centre Chennai now covers 1,500 m² and is equipped with the latest technology, creating a state-of-the-art environment for innovation and creativity. One of the most technologically advanced design spaces Renault offers today. At the centre of the inauguration of the Renault Design Centre Chennai is renault. rethink, a sculpture at once conceptual and high-tech that embodies Renault’s transformation and commitment to India.
