Renault has launched their Laguna Coupe in South Africa. The local market will now be able to benefit from its exclusivity, style and dynamism.

“The Renault Laguna Coupé expresses timeless beauty, linked to absolute driving enjoyment. The result is an athletic two-door flagship coupé with strong allure and a unique position in the local market,” explains Renault SA managing director, Xavier Gobille.

The coupe model will focus on premium quality and comfort. This essentially means that it will be a flagship model for the French brand.

“Accordingly, it’s a fitting flagship model for the SA market, and one that will attract an entirely new calibre of discerning clientele to our showroom floors, while serving as a compelling image-builder for Renault in general,” Gobille says.

The Renault Laguna Coupe will have four-seats, as well as new styling for the exterior. The interior is said to be sporty and include a load of chrome and aluminium finishes. There will be all-round spaciousness, despite the lack of rear doors.

Engine wise Renault has added a 3.5-litre V6 motor with 175kW and 330Nm of torque. There will be a 0-100km/h time of 7.4 seconds followed by a top speed of 244km/h. The fuel consumption will be a mediocre 10-litres per 100km.

Interior equipment includes a new BOSE sound system, Bluetooth connectivity, USB ports and iPod connectivity.

Pricing starts at R499 900.
