Renault Group MD Francois Provost has told The Independent that the UK should follow the EU’s lead and put tariffs of up to 35 per cent on Chinese made cars that it imports.
Speaking ahead of next week’s Paris Motor Show, Provost – whose brands include Renault, Dacia and Alpine – said: “Renault’s position on this topic is very, very clear: the UK has been part of Europe’s ecosystem for centuries. So, I think we should have a deal between EU and UK saying that for existing capacity in UK, they should be considered as the ecosystem of European cars.
