Frankfurt Motor Show was held in 2015 and could not do without high-profile presentations. This time, the French company Renault introduced its new development. Instead of two models Laguna and Latitude, the design engineers of this company presented a modern and stylish Renault Talisman. The corporation has increased the economy of the alliance due to the new system (CMF), and new developers have expanded the list of car functions.
Dimensions
Updated Renault belongs to the D-class, which corresponds to its external and internal parameters.
Compared with previous Laguna hatchback and station wagon models, some dimensional characteristics have improved and changed:
- 4.85 m - length (Laguna hatchback - 4.70 m, Laguna station wagon - 4.80 m);
- 1.46 m - height;
- 1.87 m - latitude;
- wheelbase - 2.81 m (Laguna hatchback - 2.67 m, Laguna station wagon - 2.75 m);
- clearance - 120 mm.
Exterior
External parameters of the Renault Talisman car (station wagon) correspond to the concept of this company. Bends, crossbars and stampings emphasize the style, which is sustained "from and to", there are no sharp corners, only rounded shapes and style.
The front end has some similarities with the Renault Espace. The roof was domed. A streamlined effect is created, especially thanks to the oblong headlight design. However, with the new model, designers tried to emphasize the elongated shape with chrome stakes, which do not perform any function, but perfectly complement the look. Both the main and fog optics of the Renault Talisman model are equipped with economical and practical Pure Vision LED modules , the tail lights are equipped with a burgundy 3D effect.
Another chrome element is the grille on the radiator with a large Renault logo. The shape corresponds to the general concept, it is rounded, and four ribs (previously there were three) are united by a single elegant line that smoothly turns into headlights. The radiator grille emphasizes the elegant yet powerful appearance, as if urging the driver to move quickly. Wheel arches have massive stamping, and the diameter of the wheels can vary from 16 to 19 (R16-R19), but the car does not look massive, but neat.
Interior: interior fittings
The interior of the Renault Talisman car looks no less beautiful and rich, with high-quality finishes, wooden elements, ergonomic seats with massagers and a lot of electronics. The front seats are equipped with excellent lateral support, the functionality of which can be appreciated when making cool maneuvers during a test drive. It is also worth noting the spaciousness of the cabin, both in the first row (height 902 mm) and in the second (height 855 mm). It easily accommodates five passengers. On the back sofa, even three adults do not feel discomfort. Luggage capacity - from 600 to 1700 liters. The dashboard features a multimedia system (9-inch screen), audio system, seat adjustment, cruise control, 4Control, R-Link 2 systems and many others. All elements are located as ergonomically as possible, which is a significant advantage of the model.
