RenaultOne of Europe’s leading car manufacturers and part of the global Renault-Nissan Alliance, the Renault Group is today the third largest automotive manufacturer in the world. Since developing their first car in 1898, Renault has over 110 years of motoring excellence and a solid history of industry-changing innovations. Over the years Renault has had great success with many of its iconic vehicles in Australia: Renault’s legacy continues today in the elite world of Formula 1 motorsport, electric vehicle development, and producing quality cars for every driver. Renault has been involved in Formula 1, the pinnacle of motorsport, for more than 30 years, pursuing a shared aim: to push the limits of sport and technology. The long association started in 1977 and has since yielded eight drivers’ crowns, nine constructors’ titles and numerous wins with such distinguished teams as Williams, Benetton, Red Bull, and under our own banner. In Australia, enthusiasm for Formula 1 has grown as a result of Mark’s incredible achievements in the Renault powered Red Bull car over the past few seasons. Mark’s passion for the exceptional Renault Sport brand extends beyond Formula 1 and into our road cars. During his time in Melbourne for the 2011 Formula 1TM Grand Prix, he proudly launched Renault Sports’ latest hot hatch, the Clio R.S. 200 Australian Grand Prix Limited Edition. Renault is therefore very excited to be the official vehicle partner of the 2011 Swisse Mark Webber Challenge and support Australia’s Formula 1TM hero in his philanthropic endeavours. The all new Renault Koleos will be the official event vehicle. This versatile compact SUV with 4x4 capabilities is the perfect fit for the challenge which requires participants to navigate through some of Tasmania’s toughest terrain.
