Car Features - Same Car, Different Names: Renault

Our third manufacturer from Europe is Renault, which is the second largest brand from France. Although they have an alliance with Nissan and Mitsubishi, they are treated as separate entities in this list. Same with its European brothers which has a wide portfolio of brands, the case of badge engineering can happen.

In order for a car to be counted on this list, the vehicle must have a different name using the same shell (exterior modifications are usually done) but sold under a different brand. And to avoid a super long list, we would limit vehicles which were launched from 1990s and above. Do take note the year range represents the entire vehicle line (including those of its twins) even if the original model was killed. In order to be listed, the base vehicle must be from a Renault subsidiary which includes Dacia, Renault-Samsung, and AvtoVAZ. Its Japanese corporate cousins are listed on separate articles for Nissan and Mitsubishi.
