In Australia Renault has seen a 52% surge in sales so far this year, which Renault Australia says can be partly attributed to a massive improvement in vehicle quality in recent years.
Renault posted record sales for June and for the first half of 2014 according to VFCATS figures with 605 sales in June and 2873 year to date (YTD).
Renault Australia corporate communications and sponsorship Manager, Emily Fayedev, told Autotalk that she believes 2014 will be much bigger Improvement on last year, “we sold 7016 units in 2013 and we are on track to sell approximately 9000 vehicles in 2014.”
“I can confirm that we are 53% YTD at the end of June. Our highlights have been the Clio and Megane from our passenger vehicle range and Kangoo, Trafic and Master from our commercial vehicle range,” she adds.
Renault has also announced extended warranties on all variants of the Megane Hatch and Wagon that will have a 5 year/unlimited kilometre warranty and 5 years’ roadside assist.
Unveiling its refreshed Megane small hatch and wagon range recently, Renault Australia noted that its average warranty claim cost had improved by 68% in the past six years.
All vehicles in the Megane range have 1 year servicing intervals and are covered by Renault’s Capped Price servicing program. The first three services are capped at $299 per service.
All versions of the Megane RS and Clio RS, delivered after 1 July 2014, will receive a five-year/unlimited kilometre warranty. In addition, the new Megane GT220 Hatch and Wagon launched this week will now also receive a five-year/unlimited kilometre warranty.
Customers will also receive 5 years of roadside assistance to give further peace-of-mind.
