Renault’s global sales boss Ivan Segal has welcomed the UK government’s introduction of grants for electric vehicle buyers, saying that such support will be needed to stimulate demand “for some years” to come.
The French manufacturer has just released its sales results for the first half of 2025, with notable gains in sales of both its EV and hybrid line-ups. That has helped the firm to sell 394,278 passenger vehicles in the European region, a rise of 8.4% despite the overall market dipping by 1%.
