Alpine: an enriched A110 range and competition built into its wiring The Alpine is the Groupe Renault brand dedicated to innovative, authentic and exclusive sports cars. 2020 was a pivotal year for it, with the announcement of its arrival in Formula 1 in 2021 and its move up to LMP1, the premier category of the World Endurance Championship (WEC). On the product side, Alpine is enriching its A110 offer – a multi-award-winning model whose range consists of the A110 Pure, the A110 Legend, the A110S – with the launch of two limited series: the A110 Color Edition 2020 and the A110 Legend GT. In 2020 the brand logged a total of 1,525 registrations. The A110 Color Edition 2020 is not only a limited-edition version, but also a new annual program. Mirroring the world of fashion and its seasonal collections, the A110 Color Edition will be renewed every year. In 2020, the A110 Color Edition took its inspiration from the intense and vibrant A110S. It offers an exclusive Sunflower Yellow finish and was available for sale until the end of 2020. That hue was then removed from the color palette. With only 400 units produced worldwide – all in 2020 – the A110 Legend GT is based on the current A110 Legend. With custom-designed design interior and bodywork features, it enhances the elegance of the A110 Legend. This reinterpretation gave birth to the most sophisticated version of the A110 to date, giving the brand real prominence – especially among the most discerning sports car buyers. 2020 also marked the beginning of its customization offer with the Atelier Alpine, which includes 29 new colors, each limited to 110 cars worldwide, four new caliper colors, three new wheel finishes and thousands of possible combinations to make each A110 as unique as its owner. With competition built into its wiring, Alpine completed its third single-brand championship this year, the Alpine Elf Europa Cup. Developed with its competition partner Signatech, it is making an appearance on some of the most beautiful circuits in Europe. For the most experienced drivers, Alpine offers the A110 GT4, a competition version also developed by Signatech. In 2020, the A110 Rallye successfully took part in its first races in France. In September, it received FIA R-GT approval, thereby becoming eligible for all international events. Lada: complete transformation of the range continues An iconic leader in the Russian market for over 50 years, LADA is Groupe Renault’s fifth brand. LADA vehicles are designed, produced and sold by AVTOVAZ, Russia's leading carmaker and a partner of Groupe Renault since 2008, which also manufactures cars for the Renault-Nissan- Mitsubishi Alliance for the Russian market and CIS countries. With the launch of the LADA Vesta in 2015, thanks to the LADA XRAY a new era began for the LADA brand, with major ambitions: a fully renewed range of vehicles and services, accessible and adapted to local markets, attractive new design concepts and a rapidly changing network. In 2019, with the renewal of the legendary 4X4, LADA marked a new step in the enrichment of the brand and confirmed its leadership as an unbeatable all-terrain vehicle manufacturer. In 2020, LADA confirmed its dynamism, not only with exciting new developments on renowned and popular models, but also with a continuous transformation of the dealer network in Russia reflected in a clear improvement on quality and customer service. LADA is in line to maintain its leadership in the Russian market and expand abroad. Thanks to the success of its renewed line up and efforts to develop new market opportunities and brand sustainability, and in the context of the COVID-19 health crisis, LADA sales worldwide fell by 5% to 394,000 cars (including the NIVA): of this total, 354,000 were sold in the Russian market and 41,000 internationally. The LADA brand is leader in the Russian automotive market with a market share of 21.5%, an improvement of 0.9 point compared to 2019 and giving it the highest market share since 2011. This sustainable growth in recent years is driven by the success of its models in a very competitive environment, with three LADA vehicles among the Top 10 most sold passenger cars in Russia, including the LADA Granta at No. 1 (for the 2 second year in a row), the LADA Vesta at No. 2 (also for the 2 second year in a row) and the LADA Largus VP at No. 7. In a very challenging environment, LADA has preserved its leadership in Belarus (LADA Vesta No. 1) and Azerbaijan, and ranks in the Top 3 in all CIS countries. Sales volumes increased by 12% in Kazakhstan, where Granta ranks No. 1 in terms of sales. LADA confirmed its position as the No. 1 imported brand in Uzbekistan, with an extensive and refreshed dealer network of 16 centers. Growth was also recorded in Central Asia and the Caucasus, led by Tajikistan (+30%), Kyrgyzstan (+110%) and Armenia (+45%), thanks to the opening of new concessions, fleet contracts and the appointment of new importers. AVTOVAZ also produced more than 74,000 vehicles for the Alliance, including popular models such as: the Renault LOGAN, LOGAN Stepway, SANDERO and SANDERO Stepway.
