The Renault Group is seeking a new CEO following Luca de Meo’s surprising decision to resign after five successful years at the helm of the French brand. Having previously contributed to the rise of Volkswagen Group’s SEAT brand during a five-year tenure, he joined Renault in July 2020. At the time, the company was facing major challenges, including a record net loss of €7.3 billion in the first half of the year.
