Overview
Renault and Nissan have joined the list of car manufacturers facing trial in the UK for allegedly selling cars with “defeat devices.” Lawyers believe these devices manipulated emissions tests to make vehicles appear more environmentally friendly than they were.
While separate companies, Renault and Nissan have shared a close alliance since 1999, with both having a stake in the other’s business. The High Court has confirmed that Renault and Nissan will face trial (alongside Mercedes and Ford) over alleged emissions cheating. The trial will take place in October 2025.
Anyone who purchased, leased or financed an affected Nissan or Renault vehicle could have a no-win, no-fee compensation claim. There is a deadline to join the claim and anyone who wishes to do so must sign up as soon as possible.

The global ‘dieselgate’ scandal started when US investigators discovered Volkswagen Group had been selling cars with illegal emissions-cheating software. British researchers then found that other car manufacturers were emitting toxic fumes way above the legal limits.
We’ll provide more updates on the Nissan Renault emissions scandal as they occur.
Find out if you could join a no-win, no-fee Nissan Renault emissions claim. It will only take a few minutes and there’s no obligation to proceed.
Nissan and Renault face legal action for allegedly fitting several of their diesel models with emissions-reducing software. As well as the potential impact on the environment and human health, this scandal resulted in significant financial losses to owners of these vehicles, due to:
The brands included in this case include diesel Renault and Nissan vehicles first registered between 2008 and 2020. However, the wider ‘dieselgate’ scandal involves many more car manufacturers.
Named ‘dieselgate,’ numerous diesel cars and vans are entangled in this environmental scandal, and yours might be among them.
Volkswagen (VW) has already agreed to a £193 million settlement for affected vehicles, setting a precedent that your vehicle manufacturer could soon follow. The list of implicated vehicle manufacturers is extensive. These vehicles were deceptively marketed as environmentally friendly, boasting lower nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. However, the reality was quite the opposite.
Defeat devices artificially lowered emissions during testing to meet EU regulations. However, when these same vehicles were driven on the road, they proved to emit significantly higher levels of nitrogen oxide (NOx) gases compared to the reported test conditions. This not only posed a threat to the environment but also jeopardised public health.
Lawyers are actively investigating these claims on behalf of individuals, just like you, who have owned or leased one of the affected diesel vehicles. The potential compensation for this claim could be substantial, likely amounting to thousands of pounds. If you purchased or leased a diesel vehicle and suspect you may have been impacted, we strongly encourage you to join the claim today.
Drivers of affected Renault and Nissan vehicles may have experienced higher fuel bills and maintenance costs than was promised. The cars are likely to be worth less than drivers paid for them. We believe these drivers deserve compensation for the possible harm and injustice experienced.
