2022 Renault prices increase across model range

French manufacturer Renault is set to increase list prices across its 2022 model range, affecting every Australian offering bar one.

Sparing the Kangoo light commercial vehicle, every other 2022 Renault model will be hit by the price rise come March 1, with the increased costs ranging from as little as $600 in the case of the Koleos to as much as $6100 for the Megane R.S. hot hatch.

Almost a year after being dropped down to importer status through the Ateco Group off the back of fewer sales, 2022 is the first full year for Renault with Ateco – with General Manager Glen Sealey pinning the price hike on increased supply chain costs.

“2022 marks the start of our first full year of stewardship of the Renault brand in Australia,” said Sealey.

“Like many brands in Australia, Renault has had to increase prices due to significant material and shipping cost changes over recent months.

“We know, however, that the Renault range still represents a premium European offering combined with genuine value – thanks to its high-levels of safety, technology and cutting-edge design.

"With strategic additions like the Arkana R.S. Line, we’re broadening the Renault range in preparation for the product offensive coming soon with a refreshed commercial range, the all-new Megane E-Tech in 2023 and much more to come.”

Despite the Australian new car market taking a downturn over the last two years due to the global pandemic, Renault was able to sell 7099 units throughout the year, a three per cent increase over 2020.

Both the Renault Trafic and Master have been given scathing rankings by Australian crash testing authority ANCAP, with each vehicle given the rating of 'not recommended' by the safety group.
