- Renault group (Renault-Dacia-Samsung, which now also includes the Russian brand Lada) is one of the two components of the Renault-Nissan group with the Nissan group (Nissan-Datsun-Infiniti) which now also includes the Mitsubishi brand. Through external growth achieved by successive acquisitions of independent brands, the Renault group and the Nissan group have become the world's leading light-duty (PC + LCV) vehicle manufacturer in 2017. The Renault group has published its sales figures for the year 2017. Its global sales amounted to 3.76 million units, an increase of 8.5%. This rise is much higher than the worldwide growth of all brands' car sales (+ 2.3%).

1. Europe remains by far its largest market, with 1.91 million vehicles, or 51% of its worldwide sales.
2. Russia is its second largest market, with 0.45 million vehicles, or 12% of its global sales.
3. The South American region is its third largest market, with 0.39 million vehicles, or 11% of its worldwide sales.
- These three markets account for 74% of Renault's global sales in 2017, divided into 2.67 million Renault vehicles, 0.66 million Dacia vehicles, 0.33 million Lada vehicles and 0.10 million Samsung vehicles.

Mercedes A Class
- Mercedes presents the fourth generation of its C-segment sedan, the A-Class. This model rivals the BMW 1 Series and Audi A3, which will be renewed next year. The new model is expected to sell 250,000 copies a year, given a European market that is expected to stabilize.
- The new Mercedes A-Class is based on the MFA2 platform (which is an evolution of the MFA) and its engines will be as follows: a 1330cc 4-cylinder gasoline engine developing 163 hp (Renault engine), a 2000cc 4-cylinder gasoline engine developing 224 hp, a 4 cylinder diesel 1500cc developing 116hp (Renault engine).
- The new Mercedes A-Class will be produced in the German factory in Rastatt. It will soon be supported by new generations of Class B and CLA, as well as an SUV called GLB.
Mercedes CLS
- Mercedes introduces the third generation of the CLS which is between the E-Class and the S-Class in the manufacturer's range. This model competes with the Audi A7 Sportback and BMW 6 Series Gran Coupé.
- The new CLS will try to boost the sales of this family of models which peaked in 2005 (first generation), with a peak production of 53,000 units, but then experienced a clear slump (30,000 units in 2014, 20 000 units in 2017), due to the decline of sports-oriented sedans (the Audi A7 and BMW 6 Series are experiencing the same trend) in the face of competition from SUVs that are attracting more customers, and the traditional sedans that have recently been renewed (Mercedes E-Class, BMW Series 5). This model will not benefit from the V8 engines that will be exclusive to AMG GT Sedan. The AMG GT is actually the sporting version of the CLS. Inovev expects a production of 25,000 annual units of this new CLS.
Mercedes AMG GT 4 Door Coupé
- Mercedes presents the 4-door version of the AMG GT, which until now has been available only in coupe and cabriolet versions.
- This new model - that competes a little with the Mercedes CLS presented in the same show - is one of the fastest sedans in the world (300 km/h).
- BMW will launch an 8 Series Gran Coupe next year, capable of competing with the AMG sedan. A concept anticipating this Series 8 Gran Coupe is presented at the same show.
- Inovev forecasts a production volume of 2,500 units per year of the new AMG GT 4-door, which will be marketed from summer 2018.
