Hasta ahora, solo habia adquirido una parte de una sociedad conjunta (Rostec Auto), en la que tiene un gran porcentaje Renault, y por ende, controla Autovaz. Pero, aunque no se sabe todavia cuando, Renault va a hacer una OPA. No se conocen mas detalles

YOKOHAMA, Japan – Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. will build more models using a new type of steel that combines high tensile strength with a previously unachievable degree of formability, resulting in lighter vehicles that can help lower emissions while protecting occupants.
Nissan is the world’s first carmaker to use the high-formability steel, with a tensile strength of 980 megapascals, which was jointly developed by Nissan and Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corp. The steel’s combination of stamping formability and strength makes it possible to form parts with complex shapes that are thinner and lighter than those made of conventional high tensile strength steel, while maintaining the ability to absorb energy in a collision.
The INFINITI QX50 premium midsize SUV, which went on sale in the U.S. in March, is the world’s first vehicle with front and rear side members made from 980-megapascal ultrahigh tensile strength steel, along with other body frame parts. Nissan plans to expand the use of the material, which enhances fuel efficiency as well as driving performance by lowering vehicle weight, to other models.
Nissan launched a sustainability plan this month that calls for lowering CO2 emissions from its new vehicles by 40% by fiscal year 2022, compared with fiscal year 2000. The company is aggressively developing technologies to expand the use of ultrahigh tensile strength steel, aiming for it to make up 25% of the company’s vehicle parts by weight. The material makes up 27% of the new QX50.
The 980-megapascal steel developed with Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal can be cold-pressed, making it suitable for mass production. This will help contain increases in vehicle cost.
Supongo que quieren decir que los modelos estarán más diferenciados. Cómo sustituir el Sandero con logo Renault por un modelo distinto al Sandero? ¿O tal vez abrirán Dacia a otros mercados? El éxito de Dacia ha sido indudable.
Infiniti paraliza el desarrollo de modelos basados en plataformas Mercedes
Al parecer la tecnología de mercedes es muy cara e Infiniti no consigue sacarle la suficiente rentabilidad,
Nissan ha adimitido malas conductas en la homologación en Japón desde septiembre de 2017.
Indica que menos el GT-R, los demás cumplen. Está trabajando con las autoridades pues habian inspectores que falsearon datos
Nota de prensa
YOKOHAMA, Japan (July 9, 2018) — Since the discovery in September 2017 of nonconformities in the final vehicle inspection process (kanken) at its plants in Japan, and in line with operational improvement orders received from the Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT), Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. has been proactively carrying out comprehensive compliance checks of various parts of its operations. As part of a check of exhaust emissions and fuel economy measurement tests within the kanken, Nissan discovered the following misconduct carried out for vehicles produced at its domestic vehicle production plants and those of affiliates, excepting Nissan Motor Kyushu.
1) Performance of exhaust emissions and fuel economy tests that deviated from the prescribed testing environment.
2) Creation of inspection reports based on altered measurement values.
Today, Nissan reported the current facts and investigation results to the Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.
Nissan understands and regrets the concern and inconvenience caused to stakeholders as a result of its kanken issues last year. Proactive initiatives to prevent recurrence of such issues have led to the discovery of this misconduct, for which the company is regretful.
A full and comprehensive investigation of the facts outlined above, including the causes and background of the misconduct, is underway. Nissan has retained the leading Japanese law firm Nishimura and Asahi to carry out an investigation centered on the causes and will implement appropriate countermeasures based on the results.
Following re-verification of reliable log data, Nissan has confirmed that all vehicles produced, excepting GT-R, conform to Japanese safety standards and also that the Nissan vehicle-type approval average measurement values guarantee the catalog specifications for exhaust emissions. Similarly, Nissan has also re-verified log data to confirm that all models subject to sampling tests guarantee the Nissan catalog specifications for fuel economy, meaning there are no errors within the fuel economy figures disclosed by Nissan.
This issue came to light during the course of voluntary checks conducted by Nissan. As a companywide exercise, Nissan will continue to carry out comprehensive checks of frameworks, organizations and processes related to regulatory compliance. Strict adherence to compliance is a top priority for Nissan’s management, and if issues are discovered, appropriate measures will be taken. Nissan is committed to promoting and enforcing compliance and awareness thereof in all operational areas.
Rumorologia Alpine
Si no recuerdo mal, cuando Renault dió vida a la marca, indicaba que el A110 deberia ser el modelo halo (como el 911 en Porsche) de la marca. Y dependiendo de si tuviese exito, ampliar la gama con mas modelos. En su momento se comentaba que podria llegar otro coupe y luego una berlina (que podria disponer de la base del clase E por ser de tracción trasera y estar ya en la alianza)
Después parece que desaparecian los rumores sobre este modelo (la berlina) para pasarse al tipo de carroceria de exito, los SUVs. Se decia que podria estar basada en la base MFA del GLA, aunque viendo que Infiniti no va a desarrollar mas compactos con esa base por ser muy cara, y que para el Alpine parece que Renault deshechó el motor 2.0Turbo del A45 AMG, parece dificil
Hoy vuelve el rumor, o la idea que tiene auto-moto, de que seria una buena idea hacer un Alpine «Panamera» (aparte del SUV) Claro que dice que podria utilizar el AMG CLS53 para ello. O bien, usar el banco de organos de Nissan cuando saliese el proximo GT-R. No se veria antes del 2022 segun ellos
No se, viendo la idea de Alpine de tener vehiculos muy ligeros y prestacionales, usando ese tipo de bases (GLA y CLS) el primer punto no lo cumplirian. Serian vehiculos rapidos, si, pero no ligeros. Y aparte, el banco de organos de Mercedes es bastante mas caro que el de Renault o Nissan, con lo que la rentabilidad no creo que fuese la adecuada, pero quien sabe
Está claro que tendrá que hacer un sacrilegio para ampliar el numero de modelos, ventas y rentabilidad para que Alpone funcione, pero parece que tenemos que seguir esperando a ver cual es el planteamiento
Renault anuncia novedades electricas
– Por un lado, el nuevo electrico que se venderá en China en 2019. Un SUV low cost (un Kwid electrico) en formato electrico que se verá en Paris

We are introducing Renault K-ZE, an affordable, urban, SUV-inspired electric model combining the best of Groupe Renault: our leadership in EV, our expertise in affordable vehicles and in forging strong partnerships”[/i], said Carlos Ghosn, Chairman and CEO of Groupe Renault.
Renault also confirmed its plans to further electrify its range in its 2020 product refresh cycle, offering hybrid on Clio and plug-in hybrid on Megane and Captur, giving consumers the possibility to go electric in the models they know and love. e-Tech, an innovative, 100% Renault in-house technology, enables Renault to offer hybrid versions on B and C segment models.
Premium content and reinvented onboard experiences
Also at tonight’s press conference, Mr. Ghosn discussed how on-board experiences evolve with the advent of new mobility. As mobility continues open up new possibilities for connected and autonomous cars, users will seek for more sophisticated on-board experiences to maximize travel time – personally and professionally. Demonstrating the next step in Renault’s investment stake in French media group Challenges, Mr. Ghosn revealed a new vision for the future of mobile content – an Augmented Editorial Experience (AEX). This immersive experience combining content, connectivity services, media and mobility, will turn travel time into a learning experience beyond driving and beyond the car itself.
[i]“With the advent of connected, autonomous vehicles, customers will expect more of their traveling time. Experimenting with Groupe Challenges, we imagine what tomorrow’s connected, personalized mobility experience could be”, Carlos Ghosn said. “Access to premium content delivered through unique on-board experiences for drivers and passengers will become key differentiators”.[/i]
An immersive Augmented Editorial Experience will appear on the Renault stand at the Paris Motor Show. Inside a full-size capsule, through 4 scenarios in a 222-degree projection, visitors will experience how their daily time spent in a car might be different, through the benefit of enhanced on-board experiences and premium, adaptive, personalized content developed by Groupe Challenges.
The AEX capsule sits alongside a new Renault luxury concept car, which is an electric, autonomous, connected robo-vehicle, making it easy for people to imagine what the experience might be like in the autonomous drive car of the future.

El futuro del Renault Scénic en el aire, ¿habrá una nueva generación?
Es cierto que con la última revisión completa que sufrió el modelo el Renault Scénic adoptó una línea similar a la del Renault Espace, luciendo una imagen «crossoverizada» que busca alejarse del aspecto que tenemos asociado a un monovolumen tradicional. Pero, ¿es esto suficiente? En Renault no lo tienen tan claro. Bollore comentó lo siguiente: “Para la próxima generación, hay una pregunta: ¿Queremos tener solo SUVs o continuaremos teniendo monovolúmenes? Esta cuestión está sobre la mesa”.

Renault trasladará la producción del Twizy a Corea del Sur
El hueco que dejará el modelo, se transformará en el centro de ensamblaje de baterias para los Captur y Megane (e-tech plug-in). El Twizy lo hará Renault-Samsung en Busan
[size size=150]Renault producirá en Francia las nuevas furgonetas de Renault, Nissan y Mitsubishi[/size]
– Maubeuge: Kangoo y NV200
– Sandouville: Trafic, NV300 y el modelo de Mitsubishi
Lo curioso es que no hay modelo pequeño para Mitsu, y no se dice nada sobre la Citan, aunque supongo que seguirá la cooperación, pero ahora mismo hablan de esta alianza…Edito: y tampoco dicen nada de si Fiat tendrá su versión Trafic

Es Nissan NV250 la que se va a fabricar, entiendo que es un modelo diferente al NV200. Supongo que es un relogotipado del nuevo Kangoo. Lo de Mercedes es pura comunicación, quieren evitar decir que el Citan es un relogotipado de Renault y Fiat pues puede que lo mismo, supongo que sacarán sus propios comunicados de prensa en plan «no nos conocemos de nada».
[size size=150]¡Bombazo! Carlos Ghosn, acusado de fraude fiscal por la fiscalía de Tokio[/size]
El máximo responsable de la Alianza de Renault y Nissan ha sido detenido por las autoridades japonesas después de declarar en la fiscalía de Tokio. Carlos Ghosn está acusado de minorar sus declaraciones de la renta y hacer uso de activos de Nissan para su uso personal, una sorpresa de uno de los responsables mejor pagados del mundo con más de 15,5 millones de euros en 2017.
