Renault to launch all-new models with updated logo, starting with Triber
While the new logo has already been rolled out across Renault India's marketing and digital assets, its appearance on upcoming vehicles represents the first time it will feature on a production model in the country.
The redesigned logo—a minimalist, geometric reinterpretation of Renault's traditional diamond—reflects the French carmaker's global push toward a modern, digital-first identity. The flat, uncluttered design aims to improve visual clarity and adaptability across both digital platforms and physical formats such as grilles, displays, and signage.
Renault has also begun implementing the updated visual identity across all customer touchpoints in India, including dealerships, offices, the Oragadam manufacturing plant, and its research and development centre.
This move is part of the broader 'Renaulution' strategy, as Renault looks to position itself as a forward-looking brand focused on technology, mobility, and electrification. Renault India currently operates a production facility in Chennai with a capacity of 480,000 units annually, supported by a retail and service network of over 800 touchpoints.

Renault waits for India's EV ecosystem to mature before entry, plans to boost SUV production
Renault is waiting for the electric vehicle supportive ecosystem to mature in India before making its entry. The French auto major is one of the few that is yet to launch any electric car in the country's passenger vehicle market despite the growing demand and competition in this space. Speaking about that, Renault India's Managing Director Venkatram Mamillapalle has said that the auto OEM is waiting for the right time to enter the Indian EV market.. Renault is aiming to boost its SUV game in the Indian market, and the new Kiger will be the first of four products coming in the next two years. Renault just launched the facelifted version of its seven-seater MPV Triber in India on July 23, at a starting price of ₹6.29 lakh (ex-showroom). Post launch, Mamillapalle said that the company is currently doing an analysis. "We are looking for the whole ecosystem to mature before we put the product in place," he said, while also adding, 'Currently, what Renault India is looking for is the maturity of the market, the regulation and the ecosystem. All three together."

"We will take an appropriate time to announce the launches, and one at a time. CNG and gasoline are already there. So we are talking about other energies. The endeavour to come to that level is very quick," PTI quoted him saying, while further adding, 'We have everything at arm's length, whether it's hybrid ethanol or EVs, everything is available with us, so we don't need to seek technology. It's in my kitchen. It's as and when the maturity happens, the market picks up because it's very important that there is a proper ecosystem for the adaptability of a customer." Renault aims to boost SUV production in India Renault currently sells three products in India, which include the Kiger SUV, Triber MPV and its entry-level hatchback Kwid. The automaker aims to emphasise more on the SUV segment, which has become the key revenue churner for the Indian passenger vehicle market over the last few years. Speaking about that, Mamillapalle revealed that Renault doesn't want to stay behind in the race. In the next two years, Renault India plans to launch four products in the country. The beginning of that product onslaught is going to start with the new Kiger, which is currently under development. "But that is not just the end of the story again. It's a continuation of our lineup, which will happen," he said. In an interaction with Reuters, Mamillapalle said that Renault would launch compact and mid-sized SUVs in India. "We are going to go offensive on the product launches moving forward," he said. India currently accounts for less than two per cent of Renault's global sales, but it is one of five cost-competitive international hubs the carmaker is counting on to boost sales outside of its home market of Europe.

Merz, Macron present united front amid EU-US trade row
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz held talks with French President Emmanuel Macron in Berlin on Wednesday, as both sides sought to boost relations amid challenging global political times. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now It was Macron's first visit to Germany since Merz's government took power in early May. Merz hosted the French president for a dinner at the lakeside Villa Borsig outside Berlin on Wednesday evening. The leaders said they wanted to deepen Franco-German cooperation "at all levels." "We stand on the foundation of a close Franco-German friendship that has developed over decades. And we both feel a great obligation to continue working on this in the coming years," Merz said at the start of Macron's working visit to Berlin. Macron highlighted the personal friendship between him and Merz, as well as between their two countries. The Franco-German relationship and the shared will to advance both bilateral and European agendas are essential, said the French president. The meeting comes as the EU confronts a raft of geopolitical and economic challenges, including a trade conflict with the US and Russia's continuing war against Ukraine, among others. Paris and Berlin have been increasing efforts to support Ukraine against Russia and build up the defense capabilities of NATO's European member states. Merz signals 'decisions' on EU-US trade row Both France and Germany are, meanwhile, facing threats of increased tariffs from Washington, with US President Donald Trump threatening to slap 30% tariffs against the EU if no trade deal is reached by August 1. Speaking alongside Macron, Merz said there "may be decisions" on the ongoing trade row. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "We will discuss some very current issues together, including the current trade policy, about which we are hearing in these minutes that there could possibly be decisions," the German chancellor said. Macron said he would coordinate with Merz and other European counterparts on how to respond to the incoming US tariffs. "Today, we are responding to the tariff offensive that has been launched with a determination that we share: to provide stability and have the lowest possible tariffs," he said ahead of his meeting with Merz. Row over a joint next-generation fighter project The two leaders were also expected to discuss several thorny issues, ranging from joint defense projects to energy. There has been disagreement over a combat aircraft to be made jointly by France, Germany and Spain. The planned fifth-generation fighter jet is expected to start replacing French Rafale and German and Spanish Eurofighters from 2040. But the project, worth more than €100 billion ($117.73 billion), has been dogged by delays and infighting over workshare and intellectual property rights. The head of French defense company Dassault, Eric Trappier, on Tuesday suggested that the viability of the project was in doubt. Merz and Macron agreed on Wednesday to try to resolve differences over the FCAS fighter jet project by the end of August, a German government spokesperson said. What are the other major disagreements? There are also other disagreements between the neighboring countries. Paris, for instance, is pushing for joint European debt to boost the bloc's defense industry — a proposal Berlin rejects. France also relies heavily on nuclear energy, while Germany has phased it out entirely. Paris wants Berlin to commit to "technology neutrality" and effectively classify nuclear energy as climate-friendly. While the previous German government rejected this push, Merz's administration may be more open to the idea. France and Germany also disagree on the trade agreement between the EU and the Latin American Mercosur countries.

Last Updated: The PL champions roped in the 23-year-old Frenchman from the Bundesliga club for a fee reported to be in the rage of £69 million. Premier League champions Liverpool announced the signing of Hugo Ekitike from Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt for a fee reported to be in the region of £69 million on Thursday. Ekitike is set to fly out to Hong Kong to join with his new teammates on their pre-season tour. 'The 23-year-old has successfully completed a medical and agreed personal terms with the Reds, allowing him to fly out to Hong Kong to join his new teammates on their pre-season tour of Asia later this week," the Merseyside club said. Ekitike, who played youth football for Cormontreuil FC before making the move to Reims, where he made his senior debut in the year 2020. He was loaned out to Vejle Boldklub in 2021 and to PSG in 2022 before he made the permanent switch to the French Capital City side in 2023. He was sent on loan to Frankfurt in the year 2024 before the Bundesliga club opted to make the deal a permanent one. He enjoyed a fabulous time in Germany before the Reds came knocking. Eintracht sporting director Markus Krosche wished the Frenchman the very best on his footballing future with the fabled Reds in England. 'Hugo has improved tremendously in his 18 months with us and has been a real asset to our team and the club as a whole on and off the pitch," Krosche said. 'We're delighted he can now take the next step – a step he has earned through his performances with us," he added. Busy Liverpool Liverpool have been remarkably active in the ongoing transfer window to strengthen their lineup for the upcoming season with the signings of Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, and Giorgi Mamardashvili. Arne Slot and his team shattered the British transfer record by bringing in German star Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen for a staggering £135m, after completing the signing of Frimpong from the same club a couple of weeks earlier in their bid to replace Trent Alexander-Arnold, who has moved to Real Madrid. Liverpool also acquired Armin Pecsi from Puskas Akademia and Freddie Woodman on a free transfer from Preston North End. Real Madrid went trophyless in Carlo Ancelotti's final season as the manager of Los Blancos and will aim to rectify that under new boss Xabi Alonso in his debut season at the Capital City club. view comments First Published: July 24, 2025, 08:38 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
