据美国油价网2022年9月1日报道，在法国著名汽车制造商雷诺公司将其热力发动机业务从电动汽车部门分离出来以后，沙特阿拉伯国家石油公司（沙特阿美）可能会入股雷诺公司未来的热力发动机业务。

据路透社周二报道，日本汽车制造商日产不打算在雷诺公司的内燃机业务中持股。

雷诺公司正在创建一个新部门，将把其在西班牙、葡萄牙、土耳其、罗马尼亚和拉丁美洲的所有汽油、混合动力发动机和变速器生产基地合并在一起。雷诺公司希望通过分担柴油和汽油发动机的成本，可以腾出资金再投资于电动车型，这是雷诺公司与日产和三菱共同开创的一项技术，但已经落后于特斯拉等公司。

在今年上半年全球销量同比下降12%至100万辆以后，雷诺公司股票一直在下跌，其中E-Tech系列（电动汽车和混合动力系统）在今年上半年占欧洲乘用车销量的36%，而2021年为26%。

但并非只有雷诺公司的化石燃料汽车业务在萎缩。欧盟6月份乘用车登记量同比下降15.4%，至1996年以来的最低水平。根据欧洲汽车制造商协会（ACEA）的数据，由于供应链问题继续限制汽车产量，5月份欧盟乘用车注册量下降11.2%，至88.6万辆，同比下降15.4%。今年上半年，欧盟新车注册量下降14%，至460万辆。本月，德国的跌幅最大，为18.1%，其次是意大利，下跌15%，法国下跌14.2%和西班牙下跌7.8%。 

电动汽车的前景要光明得多，电动汽车、插电式混合动力汽车和混合动力汽车的市场份额继续增加，目前它们的市场份额加起来已达到42.5%。

Aramco Set To Take Stake In Renault's Future Thermal Engine Business

Saudi Arabia’s oil and gas giant Saudi Aramco could take a stake in French automaker Renault’s (OTCPK: RNSDF) future thermal engine business after it separates it from its electric vehicle division. 

The report notes that Japanese carmaker Nissan (OTCPK: NSANY), does not plan to take a stake in the combustion engine business. 

Renault is in the process of creating a new division that will bring together all of its petrol and hybrid engine and transmission production sites in Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Romania and Latin America. The company hopes that by sharing costs for diesel and gasoline engines, it will free up funds to reinvest in electric models, a technology it pioneered with Nissan and Mitsubishi, but has fallen behind the likes of Tesla Inc. .

Renault stock has been falling after H1 2022 worldwide sales dropped to 12% Y/Y to 1,000,199 units, with the E-Tech range (electric vehicles and hybrid powertrains) accounting for 36% of passenger car sales in Europe in the 1H2022 vs. 26% in 2021.

But it’s not just Renault that’s witnessing a contraction in its fossil fuel vehicle business. EU passenger car registrations plunged 15.4% Y/Y in the month of June to the lowest level on record in terms of volume since 1996. According to the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA), European Union passenger car registrations fell 15.4% to 886,510 units following an 11.2% contraction in May as supply chain issues continue to limit vehicle output. New car registrations in the EU shrank by 14% to 4.6M units in 1H22.For the month, Germany posted the strongest decline of -18.1%, followed by Italy -15%, France -14.2% and Spain -7.8%.

The EV outlook is much brighter, with electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids and hybrids continuing to increase their market share, with a combined market share now of 42.5%.
