futuREady India: Renault’s Largest Product Offensive with 7 Models by 2030

• Renault Group is launching futuREady India, the local rollout of its new strategic plan to drive growth both locally and globally while strengthening engineering and manufacturing capabilities to ensure long-term competitiveness for the Group worldwide.
• With futuREady India, Renault aims to make India one of the brand’s top three global markets by 2030. The Group is entering its largest-ever product renewal cycle in India, with a portfolio expanding to seven multi-energy models by 2030, all designed specifically for local market needs, using a next generation digital and electronic architecture.
• Through its new strategic plan, Renault Group is positioning India as a cornerstone of its global value chain, transforming the country into a technology centre of excellence for local market and worldwide. The Group’s ambition is to generate €2 billion in annual exports by 2030 in vehicles, R&D, and components.

At the end of a one week visit in India, François Provost, CEO of Renault Group, presented futuREady India, an Indian rollout of the futuREady strategic plan unveiled by the Group last March.

“With futuREady, our new Vision, Renault Group is accelerating its international growth by building on high-potential, fast-growing markets where the Group already has a strong presence. India, where we have been established for fifteen years, is a prime example: it represents more than one-third of the growth potential across the markets where the Renault brand already operates.

India is set to become not only a growth market, but also a centre of excellence and an export hub. Thanks to the commitment and expertise of our local teams, it will strengthen the Group’s overall competitiveness.

Thirty years ago, Renault Group began its first wave of international expansion. With futuREady, we are opening a new era in our global growth story – and India will be at the heart of it!” François Provost, CEO, Renault Group. 

“By 2030, we will offer a seven-model portfolio in India, spanning key segments from compact cars to larger SUVs, and featuring a full spectrum of electrified powertrains—from strong hybrids to fully electric vehicles.

Leveraging world-class engineering, competitive manufacturing, and a clear, ambitious product roadmap, India is poised to be a major driver of sustained value for Renault Group.” Stéphane Deblaise, CEO, Renault Group in India

In India, Renault Group remains focused on growing a customer base ready to prioritise vehicles combining attractive design, advanced onboard technologies, and electrified powertrains, with an ambition to be among the top three markets for the Renault brand globally by 2030.

The Renault brand is therefore adopting a higher value-added positioning; driven by incorporating advanced technologies, both within the vehicle's onboard systems and in its powertrain offerings.

Four vehicles are in the line-up to reach a total of seven vehicle portfolio by 2030, including Renault Duster, unveiled in January 2026, and already generating strong enthusiasm among Indian customers. As part of the futuREady announcements, the Group also presented Bridger Concept, which previews a new B-segment compact SUV, a true multi-energy vehicle including an electric version.

The seven vehicles will be based on two complementary platforms, RGEP and RGMP, deployed first on the Indian market and both designed with a multi-energy approach to offer internal combustion powertrains, including hybrids, and electric powertrains depending on needs.

Lastly, the brand also intends to stand out in the market through a strengthened commitment to its Indian customers. Through the Renault Forever initiative, the Group aims to build a lasting relationship based on trust, service quality, and simplified customer experience. Indian customers will notably benefit from a 7-year warranty.
