The distribution of LUVs assembled in Maubeuge and Tangier
- At Renault, the Renault Kangoo is the competitor of the Citroën Berlingo, Peugeot Partner, Opel Combo and Toyota ProAce City family. The new generation of Kangoo arrived in the first half of 2021 after being unveiled last year.
- The end of life of the previous Renault Kangoo was difficult because the launch of its replacement had been postponed several times. But this time, the new Renault Kangoo is here and it will be quickly declined in a Mercedes branded version named T-Class which will replace the Citan. It should then be declined in a Nissan version which should replace the current NV250. Moreover, the new Kangoo is marketed alongside the Renault Express (a former Renault model name) which in fact replaces the old Dacia Dokker. This model should represent as many sales as the Kangoo.
- Last year, these four models represented a volume of 213,364 units produced in Maubeuge (Kangoo, Citan, NV250) and Tangier (Dokker), or 12% of all LUVs of all brands sold in Europe in 2020, against 13% in 2019 and 13.5% in 2018. The breakdown by model is as follows: 102,599 Dokker, 89,592 Kangoo, 17,263 Citan and 3,910 NV250.
- Of this total, the Maubeuge plant produced 110,765 vehicles and the Tangier plant 102,599.
- In the first four months of 2021, the breakdown by model is as follows: 32,852 Kangoo, 23,433 Express, 3,976 Citan, 1,529 NV250. This volume represents an annual rate of 185,000 units in total, but taking into account the launch of the future T-Class and NV250, it could represent more than 200,000 units per year.
