What happened to the Renault Auto Co?
93355
Renault still makes cars and trucks and is, in fact, the leading . Renault hasn't sold cars in the U.S. since the 60s. Renault and Nissan have an alliance under which Renault owns a 44.4% stake in Nissan and Nissan owns a 15% stake in Renault. Renault also owns 20% of Volvo Trucks and has a few other significant holdings.\n\nThe Renault Group had the largest market share of any European Vehicle manufacturer in 2003. Although Volkswagen may have surpassed them by now, Renault-Nissan continues to rank among the top four auto manufacturers in the world in terms of market share at around 10%.\n\nRenault has also been active in Formula One racing, which did very well in the 90s. In 2002, Renault re-entered Formula One with the Bennetton team it had purchased the year before. In 2005, Renault won the Constructors' World Championship and their driver, Fernando Alonso won the Drivers' Title.

After reading what you wrote, I'm still trying to figure out what you are trying to say; so until then I have no desire to hear what you have to say.  If what you're tryint to say is that Daimler-Chrysler is quicker to respond to the wants/needs/desires of the buying public, that's already known.  The corpaorate structure at GM is to large and beaurocratic to respond in a timely fashion.  Case in point is the HHR, GM's response to the PT cruiser.  It took GM close to 7 years to put out a competing product.  The full size SS pick up is a response to the R/T10 and Ford Lightning 15 plus years later.  Gm will continue to loose out as long as the corporate structure is lethargic and the stratagy is upscale and rebadge.

Good question!\nI do think that, unfortunately, money might have been a factor. But Alonso also took it upon himself to go there, so I'm sure its not the only reason, as it would have been much easier for him to stay at Renault, as Flavio Briatore is his manager.\nPerhaps he just wanted a change of direction or a new challenge, as the wins seem to pretty much fall into his hands at Renault! Maybe he wants to prove to his doubters that he can still win in a less superior car?

Yes depending on one thing does renault decide to let him be after Alnoso leaves for mclearen.

------------\nThe most damning piece of evidence in this controversy is the suppression of the NIMH battery. \n*\nThis battery was developed by a small Michigan research company. GM invested in this technology, and the NIMH battery was used in the two most successful electric cars built to date: GM's EV1 and the Toyota RAV4 EV.\n*\nSo what happened? After California gave in to industry pressure and scrapped their electric car mandate, nearly all of the electric cars on the road were crushed, and GM sold the patents for NIMH batteries to Chevron and Texaco.\n*\nA company named Cobasys was formed by the oil companies to control the patents. Cobasys sued Toyota and others to stop production of the large-size NIMH batteries used by electric vehicles.\n*\nSo how good are these batteries? Good enough to provide at least 200-mile ranges to electric cars. And they are durable. There are a few Toyota RAV 4 EVs still on the road, with the original batteries still installed. Many of these batteries have over 100,000 miles on them, with no failures.\n*\nCobasys makes it very, very difficult for anybody to manufacture large-size NIMH batteries. This means they are giving up markets for things like automotive starter batteries, motorized wheelchairs, golf carts, marine batteries, etc. \n*\nBear in mind that these are very, very good batteries, so NIMHs could dominate all of those markets if large-size NIMHs were sold. Somebody over there is VERY afraid of electric vehicles.\n----------

I think they may have been temporarily closed down. I saw a big thing on the news, but I'm not sure if it was them. Basically , they had huge warehouses full of controlled medications like Xanax and Vicodin without proprer documentation. They got raided by the Feds who siezed a ton of meds and pulled their license. Again, I think it was them was but I'm not 100% sure.

I really dont know what is the problem with mclaren.They seemed to go well even back in 2003.then enter renault and from that time they are plagued by problems.Only if they give Kimi a near perfect car like renault or ferrari or even Honda,i'm sure he'll win the championship.

No, lots of large british buisinesses are having to make redundancies and are losing a lot of money.\n\nA lot of british car factories are making thousands of redundancies.

A couple of years ago, all the Amoco stations in my city became British Petroleum, But I don't think they have much to do with Mobil except that they both are making us take it in our arses with the gas prices. Funny how the oil industry has claimed the highest earnings ever in history last year, yet they "claim" that they are only making a small profit. Hmm...

Nobody knows right now, but it appears to be either for Toyota with the Red Bull team, the #88 car, or maybe even the #42 car.  \n\nIt is one of those situations that will sit out there as rumors until a deal if finally announced.

Hmmm.\nI have heard of rumours of Michael teaming up with Ross Brawn to buy Renault's Enstone FACTORY when or if Renault decides to pull out of F1, but a major manufacturer like Renault, or Toyota for that matter, are well beyond the reach of one man to buy, even with Michael's monetary fortunes.\nI don't think he would "run" his brother. He would "run" himself...he knows he's better than his little Ralf, retired or not.

I had heard the dodge charger had a balance problem\nfront to rear last year, and now it was fixed. It looks like\nwere going in to the Chrysler dominated racing of the 60's\npetty era.If they put there German engineering racing\nformula giants in to the mix team it and pool it and pull\npeople in on there products together and unify them,they will dominate. If they can keep it out of the Charlotte click\nour Earnhardt,Gordan's,Johnson's will just have to get used to\nbeing in the middle of the pack or go German/dodge.

McLaren's lack of reliability is not only due to the drivers, but also because of some design faults. Just look at what happened in Monaco. There was a heat shield made of carbon that malfunctioned and caught fire probably because it was too close to the engine. It affected the wiring of the car and that was it. And I believe that Kimi only has chances to shine if he joins Ferrari or Renault.
