Renault’s Morocco Plants Boost Local Production, Driving 17% of Global Sales

In a press release, Renault Group Maroc attributes these results to the close collaboration between all stakeholders, whether public or private, for the development of the Renault ecosystem. It should be recalled that the first agreement concluded with the Kingdom in 2016 will expire at the end of 2023.

Renault Group Maroc holds a predominant position in the country, representing 70% of Morocco’s vehicle exports alone. The "made in Morocco" vehicles of the group thus represented more than 17% of the group’s global sales in 2022. In addition, the Renault Group plant in Tangier has just crossed the 2.5 million vehicle mark since its launch, with the production of a Dacia Sandero Stepway destined for the Portuguese market as the 2.5 millionth vehicle to come off the production line. In total, with more than one million vehicles produced at SOMACA, the group’s total production in the Kingdom exceeds 3.5 million vehicles manufactured.

In parallel with these successes, the Tangier plant is being assigned the manufacture of a 100% electric vehicle, the Mobilize DUO, as well as the first hybrid vehicle in Morocco, the Dacia Jogger. These projects will further strengthen the depth of the Renault ecosystem and support its development.
