In 2025, Renault faced disastrous financial results, reporting an unprecedented loss of €10.931 billion. This steep decline in profitability was mainly attributed to the underperformance of Nissan, in which Renault holds a significant stake as the major shareholder. Despite the enormous losses linked to Nissan, Renault indicated that without this impact, the company would have achieved a profit of €715 million, although this figure still represents a substantial 72% decrease from the prior year's performance.

In June 2025, Renault altered its accounting methodology regarding its stake in Nissan, recognizing a massive hit of €9.3 billion from this change. This adjustment was intended to insulate Renault's future financial results from Nissan's performance, eliminating the burden of their losses moving forward. Despite these measures, the sheer scale of the losses painted a bleak picture for Renault, prompting concerns among investors and industry analysts about the sustainability of Renault's long-term strategy.

With a total revenue of €57.922 billion for the year, which shows a modest growth of 3%, Renault's financial health appears to be precarious in light of these losses. The outlook for the automaker remains uncertain as it navigates the challenges presented by the global automotive market and its partnership with Nissan. Stakeholders will be keenly observing how Renault plans to recover from this setback and whether it will impact its market positioning in the coming years.
