4 million Renault’s Kangoo vehicle made in Maubeuge since 1997
Maubeuge has produced more than 20 prominent models since 1969 including Renault 12, Renault 18, Renault Fuego and Renault 21 Medallion. But the one that has become inseparable from this plant in the ElectriCity cluster in northern France is Kangoo. It has made 4 million of them so far, a record that attests to the model’s enduring success as its generations parade by. Today, more than 400 Kangoo vehicles roll off its assembly lines every day – or one every 90 seconds!
Maubeuge has cleared the 4 million Kangoo milestone. Kangoo was a pioneer, a car that captured its time and a love-at-first-sight phenomenon, and is as popular as ever generations later. The leisure versions for families and friends, and the van versions for shopkeepers, tradespeople and companies have built a track record in a league of its own and achieved iconic status.
On 14 December at Maubeuge, Renault presented the four millionth Kangoo car keys to La Poste, a historic customer of the brand including electric vehicles.
Heinz-Jürgen Löw, SVP, Light Commercial Vehicles, Renault brand, Luciano Biondo, VP Industrial Operations of Ampere ElectriCity and Luiz Quinahla, Industrial Director of Ampere ElectriCity and Director of the Maubeuge plant, presented the Renault Kangoo E-Tech electric car keys to Eve Pietriga, Chief Executive Officer of VEHIPOSTE and Betty Didierdefresse, VEHIPOSTE Operations Director, a subsidiary of the group La Poste. This Renault Kangoo is the 4 millionth unit built at Maubeuge since 1997.
La Poste is one of Renault’s historic customers. For over a century, the French post office has been using Renault light commercial vehicles for the delivery of postmail and parcels to the French people.
