“The Renault range has been transformed and, with our 100% electric vehicle line-up, Renault is in a strong position to capitalise on a changing market,” said Wood.

“Dacia is growing from strength to strength as we see our first loyal customers returning and Alpine promises to be a compelling challenger in the premium sports sector. I look forward to the challenge of continuing to build our brands’ success.”

Wood joined Renault in 2007 after completing a BA in French at Bristol University and MA in International Business at Nottingham University.

He has worked across the roster of Groupe Renault brands; from graduate to market analytics manager, product manager for Clio and Renault Sport, Dacia brand manager, corporate planning manager and finally into his previous role as head of marketing communications.
