Two Millionth Renault Rolls out of Revoz
Car maker Revoz on Wednesday produced the two millionth Renault car since an agreement was signed with the French car maker in 1972. Through constant improvements in production, Revoz has become one of the most efficient plants in the Renault system, the company's chairman Marcel Brouiller said.
Revoz has recently introduced a night shift to up the output capacity, and added 400 workers to its payroll. According to Brouiller, 150 additional workers will be employed by the end of this month to increase the plant's daily output to 800 Clios.
Even without utilising the full night-shift capacity, 2004 was a record year for the car maker as almost 132,000 Clios were produced. Clios produced in Novo mesto are mainly sold in Western Europe, notably France, Italy and Germany.
The car maker started off in 1972 with the legendary Renault 4, followed up by the compact Renault 5, which became one of the most popular cars in Slovenia. The plant has produced Clios since 1993.
Clios have for years been the most popular cars in Slovenia - their market share last year was 12.37 percent.
