Renault aims to achieve sales that will catapult the third-generation Laguna to the top three in its segment, according to Auto Sales Ltd general manager Mario Xuereb.
Speaking this afternoon at the launch of the new French D (upper medium) segment car at the new Kind's showroom in Mosta Road, Lija, Mr Xuereb said Renault is backing the model with a three-year warranty.
The Laguna was the first car in history to achieve five stars in the EuroNCAP crash test and the latest incarnation aims to offer best-in-class active and passive safety features, apart from delivering real driving pleasure.
A five-door ‘liftback' saloon, in a choice of Expression and Dynamic trim levels, with two diesel engines of 1.5 and 2.0 litres, this is the quietest in its segment, insulting driving sounds and reducing aerodynamic noise.
The 110 bhp 1.5 dCi entry level Expression with a six-speed manual gearbox costs Lm12,990, emits 140 g/km of CO2 and consumes 6 litres/100 km.
Overall length of the new Laguna is 4,695 mm on a 2,756 mm wheelbase, overall width is 2,060 mm and overall height 1,445 mm.
