Renault India CEO Stéphane Deblaise says hybrids and CNG vehicles have significant growth potential in India, with CNG, hybrids and EVs expected to maintain strong sales. Renault plans to offer CNG across multiple models but has no plans for a CNG-powered Duster. Deblaise also discusses India's automotive growth outlook, how free trade agreements (FTAs) could facilitate global model imports and exports, and Renault's focus on localisation and new powertrains rather than expanding manufacturing capacity.
