In the beautiful setting of Château Chantilly did yesterday appearance Talisman, the new model Brand diamond willing to make things difficult for the 508, the Mondeo or Passat.
After the bad reputation that the second generation Laguna won by reliability problems of some versions, which with his unconvincing aesthetic led to poor sales of the third, Renault has decided to make a fresh start with the D-segment sedan and call it otherwise.
Mounted on the modular platform CMF the alliance with Nissan, which already use the new Espace and Kadjar, hosts a size of 4.85 meters long , 1.87 meters wide and 1.46 meters high, and a distance wheelbase of 2.82 meters. Growth is therefore significant for respect to Laguna, with 15 centimeters of difference in the length and another 6 in the width.
Mechanical supply the compound the TCe 150 horses and 1.6 TCe 200 hp in petrol, while diesel will the 1.5 dCi 110 hp and 1.6 dCi 130 and 160 horses . The two less powerful diesel take manual six-speed automatic can mount the EDC also six relations that will associate series of 160 hp. The TCe only be available with the seven-speed EDC.
We could not miss in this generation the system rear wheels guidelines ’4Control’ , one of its strengths, which facilitates maneuverability at low speed by turning in the opposite direction to the front road and provides greater cornering stability accompanying the rotation of the front. On this occasion, as a novelty, this system is associated with a suspension piloted , which automatically adapts its hardness as required by the circumstances of the road and driving.
A more serious saloon, with superior look and a new name to forget the shadows of the past.
The driver may also choose how the car thanks to the ‘Multi-Sense’ system, choosing between ‘Comfort’ modes, ‘Sport’ ‘Eco’ and ‘Personal’, which varies with engine response, the operation of the gearbox, the set damping and ’4Control’ and hardness of the address.
His appearance changes dramatically. For starters we no longer have a two-volume environment as were the previous Laguna, this time Renault saloon features classic notchback body. It is therefore a four door , giving up the tailgate. In the design you can see some germanización as a somewhat sober style is perceived, although modern yes . On the front are the usual large logo on the grille and headlights with striking appendages on the ends to daylight and indicators that give it personality. The rear is also very personal because those drivers who tend to join at the top.
Inside we see the dashboard dominated by a center console on the touch screen Infotainment system ‘R-Link 2′ is 7 or 8.7 inches, reaching the latter vertically, as in the Espace. Grow habitability of the occupants and the boot capacity increases to reach a great 608 liters , which are close to the Skoda Superb and vast in front of the Volkswagen Passat.
For more distinction and comfort on board, Talisman has finish Initiale Paris as the higher-end, up from four. It includes Nappa leather upholstery, electrically adjustable, heated and with massage function front seats, rear headrests enclosures and connection to a call center for any type of assistance 24 hours a day plazas. Outside this version will be noted with specific tires 19 “and will have available an exclusive black amethyst.
In addition to the sedan body, the Talisman also have corresponding family variant Grand Tour , which meet in the Frankfurt Motor Show, where the official presentation of the model will take place. Its production will start later, at the end of the year, in the French Douai factory to dealers begin to receive the first units already in 2016.
