    Its competitive strength is due to its association with Nissan, Samsung Motors and Dacia, which gives it an advantage in R&D, production and distribution. Ten years into the Alliance, Renault and Nissan take cooperation to a higher level with the creation of a dedicated team to expand cooperation and maximize synergies between the two partners. The competitive production capacity at the Dacia production base coupled with Renault’s technical expertise form the two most critical factors in the company's product line renewal strategies. In addition, despite the crisis, the Renault group has grown its market share. Seven of the company’s vehicles were awarded with top five-star rating in Euro NCAP crash tests, thus demonstrating that Renault’s vehicles have one of the best safety features. In 2008, all manufacturing sites within the Renault perimeter were certified ISO 14001. Latest to obtain the certification were the sites of Somaca (Morocco) and Avtoframos Weakness The Renault is greatly dependent on Western Europe for its sales, which is contributing with 72.8% of its total sales.
