Renault Latitude, first-class travel in Deauville

From 2 to 11 September, Renault Latitude will escort US film stars and jury members. Latitude, now accustomed to red carpets, will be present in its 150 hp 2.0 dCi manual gearbox version, an environment-friendly model that emits just 140 g/km of CO2.

The interior of Latitude is focused on the well-being of passengers and equipped with all-new comfort features. Chief among them are an air quality management system, featuring an ionizer with purifying and relaxing qualities, and a new driver's seat with a four-mode built-in massage function.

Latitude is powered by engines that are ideal for long-distance travel far from the madding crowd.

With its harmonious and generous proportions, powerful-looking front end and robust and dynamic rear end, Latitude combines presence and elegance.


Renault loves film

Starting with the first film of the Lumière brothers in which Louis Renault was filmed driving his Type A voiturette and the first cinema studios built in Billancourt between 1885 and 1898 alongside Renault factories, the story between Renault and the "seventh art" has lasted more than a century.

Renault is passionate about all forms of cinema, supporting numerous festivals and institutions including the Cannes Film Festival, the Académie des Arts et Techniques du Cinéma (which organizes the César awards and the Les Nuits en Or short film event), and the film festivals of Deauville, Alpe d'Huez, Marrakesh, London, San Sebastian and Valladolid. In over 110 years, thousands of Renault cars have driven stars to sets and red carpets around the world.

Renault also works in movie and television production in France and internationally by lending out cars. Renault vehicles have taken part in spectacular stunts and classic moments alongside actors in major films such as And God Created Woman, A View to a Kill and The Visitors, and more recently in Rush Hour 3 and Une Affaire d'Etat.

Renault continues its commitment to film and television productions through an active policy of partnerships and product placement (more than 150 features and shorts in 2010).

Renault was created in France over 110 years ago and has been active on international markets ever since. It designs, develops, manufactures and sells a broad range of vehicles through a network of 350 industrial and commercial sites in 118 countries. Its full range of electric vehicles accessible to all is the standard-bearer of its environmental commitment. The Group is aiming for leadership in CO2 emissions thanks to its zero emission* product line and new generation of combustion engines. The average emissions of its European product range, currently at 137 g/km, will drop to 120g/km in 2013 and below 100g/km in 2016. Today's Renault features innovation for all, top-quality products and services and a new design philosophy. The company continues to pursue its strategy of profitable growth with its associated brands, Dacia and Renault Samsung Motors. The Renault group employs 121,000 people worldwide, reported net revenues of €38,971 million and sold more than 2.6 million vehicles in 2010.
