Renault Between the two world wars, Louis Renault enlarged the scope of his company, producing agricultural and industrial machinery. During WWII, Louis Renault's factories worked for Nazi Germany. He was for this reason arrested during the liberation of France in 1944 and died in prison before having prepared his defense. His industrial assets were seized by the government, and the Renault factories were therefore a public industry (known as the Régie Renault). From 1979 to 1987, Renault held majority ownership in the American Motors Corporation (AMC), which it sold to Chrysler Corporation in March 1987. On April 9, 1986 the government of France ruled against the privatization of Renault. In 1996, the company was partially privatized. On January 2, 2001, Renault sold its industrial vehicle subdivision (Renault Véhicules Industriels) to Volvo, which renamed it Renault Trucks in 2002. Renault competed, as a constructor, in Formula One racing from 1977 to 1985 and again from 2002 onwards. In between these years they supplied engines to various Formula One teams, notably having successful partnerships with the Benetton and Williams teams in the 1990s. For more information, see Renault Sport. The government of France owns 44% of the company. Louis Schweitzer has been the Chairman and CEO of Renault since 1992. Renault has a stake of 44.4% in Japanese automaker Nissan together with which they form the Renault-Nissan Alliance. Further stakes are in Samsung Motors (Renault Samsung Motors), Volvo Trucks and Dacia. Peugeot is a major French car manufacturer, whose roots go back to bicycle manufacturing at the end of the 19th century. Peugeot is also the largest bicycle manufacturer in France Although the Peugeot factory had been in the manufacturing business for some time, their entry into the world of wheeled vehicles was by means of the bicycle. Armand Peugeot introduced the Peugeot "Le Grand Bi" penny-farthing in 1882 and a range of bicyles thereafter. Indeed, Peugeot bicycles have been built until very recently, although the car company and bike company parted ways in 1926.
