Recall that the previous head of Renault, Thierry Bolloré, left his post in October 2019 — just ten months after taking the position. Clotilde Delbos was appointed interim director, and she will now become de Meo's first deputy.

The statement emphasizes that Luca de Meo has accumulated significant experience and achieved success over the years of his work. His skills fully meet the tasks that Renault sets for itself in the framework of further growth.

Luca de Meo, having graduated from Bocconi University in Milan, began his career at Renault, after which he moved to the European division of Toyota. He then worked at Fiat, where he dealt with brands such as Fiat, Lancia, and Alfa Romeo. In 2009, the Italian specialist joined Volkswagen, and in 2015 he headed the Seat brand.
