Renault Trucks Show Strong Results for 2022 Establishing Itself as a Key player in Electric Mobility.

By destination:
Europe: 52,160 units (+13%)

2022 was undoubtedly the year of decarbonised mobility for Renault Trucks. With the opening of an assembly line for Kleuster cargo bikes at its Lyon site, allowing for more agile and virtuous last-mile distribution, and the production of medium-duty electric trucks at the Renault Trucks plant in Blainville-sur-Orne, which passed the symbolic mark of 1,000 trucks, the manufacturer has established itself as a key player in electric mobility.
As proof of this, in Europe in 2022, Renault Trucks held 24.2% of registrations in the electric MHDV market and invoiced 379 Renault Trucks E-Tech D and D Wide. In France, Renault Trucks remains the undisputed leader in electric mobility with a 75% market share in the electric MHDV market.
Renault Trucks also invoiced 268 Renault Trucks E-Tech Master electric light commercial vehicles in 2022.
In 2022, many transport companies and local authorities chose Renault Trucks to help them switch to electric vehicles, including XPO in France, which announced an order for 100 electric trucks, the City of Barcelona, which purchased 73 Renault Trucks electric trucks for waste collection and street cleaning, Coca-Cola, which operates 30 Renault Trucks electric trucks for last-mile deliveries to its customers in Belgium, and Sepur, which has just put 18 Renault Trucks E-Tech D Wide into service to collect household waste from the entire 13th arrondissement of Paris.
The electric trucks of Renault Trucks' customers have already travelled a total of 4 million km, which is equivalent to a saving of 3,200 tonnes of CO2.
This trend is set to continue in 2023, as Renault Trucks registered over 1,700 orders for electric vehicles in 2022. At the end of 2023, the manufacturer will also begin production of electric heavy duty trucks, Renault Trucks E-Tech T for regional distribution and Renault Trucks E-Tech C for urban construction, at its Bourg-en-Bresse plant in France.
The arrival of Renault Trucks' all-electric heavy-duty range in 2023 marks a major step forward by the manufacturer in favour of the decarbonisation of road freight transport. Renault Trucks is now the only manufacturer to offer electric mobility for all uses: from 650 kg cargo bikes to 44 tonne electric tractors and construction trucks. These electric vehicles are part of the full ecosystem for decarbonising transport proposed by Renault Trucks, which takes the form of tailor-made support for hauliers in their energy transition from the very first decision to decarbonise their fleet: from assessing and analysing needs to monitoring implementation and operation.
Renault Trucks is pursuing its ambition for 50% of its sales to be of all-electric vehicles by 2030.
