Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) A. Since 2005, Renault has been committed to reducing the environmental impact of its vehicles throughout their life-cycle, from one generation to the next. In order to ensure and monitor compliance with this commitment, since 2004, Groupe Renault measures the environmental impact of its vehicles throughout their life-cycle, from the extraction of the raw materials needed for their manufacture until their end-of-life. Life-Cycle Assessments (LCA) are therefore performed: prior to the vehicle design process, to analyze the potential P environmental impact and benefits of technological innovations; after the design process, to confirm and measure the reduction of P environmental impacts from one generation of vehicle to another. At end-2019, 26 models representing 81% of the Group’s global passenger car sales under the Renault, Dacia, Alpine and RSM (Renault Samsung Motors) brands were thus subjected to a complete LCA. Starting with the launch of the Twingo III in September 2014, all new models are subjected to a comparative LCA with respect to their predecessor. Each of these LCAs is subjected to a critical review by an independent expert following the ISO 14040 and 14044 standards, to evaluate, firstly, the methodology used and, secondly, all of the calculations and interpretations performed. The LCA reports for new models, together with their reviews, are put online on the website www.group.renault.com/en/our- commitments/. For further methodological details, please refer to section 2.6.1.1. The comparative LCA for Duster II (2017) compared to Duster (2010) presented below shows the reduction in the environmental impacts between the two generations of this model.

Renault has made environmental management part of its environmental policy since 1995. This approach is implemented Company-wide and throughout the life-cycle of its vehicles. These efforts are made possible by the presence of an environmental network at all Group plants and operations throughout the world. The 2013 update of the Groupe Renault environmental policy has reaffirmed and expanded the scope of this managerial approach to the entirety of the Company’s value chain. The roll-out of the environmental component of the Drive the Future plan by the Strategic Environmental Planning department covers all of Groupe Renault’s activities and supports its development strategy for new products and services, including electric, connected and autonomous vehicles and vehicle-to-grid services.
