Renault launches eco2 business model

Furthering its rapidly developing environmental image, has launched the new eco2 business model for its customers in France.

According to the criteria, all models under the Renault eco2 banner must have emissions of less than 140g/km or be powered by biofuel; be produced in an ISO 14001 certified plant; and be 95 per cent recoverable at the end of their life with at least five per cent recycled plastic content.

Currently, the business eco2 range consists of eight models: the Clio, Clio Estate, New Megane Hatch and Estate, New Scenic and Grand Scenic, New Laguna Hatchback and Estate. The Fluence and Clio emitting 98g/km of CO2 will also be added to the line-up at a later date.

The entire eco2 range is also fitted with the new Carminat TomTom that rationalises journeys and optimises transport times while minimising fuel consumption.
