Renault Laguna Coupe Launch

The new Laguna Coupé has been launched with an impressive equipment levels at a selling price of just RM258,829.89 with a strong 3-year warranty/100kilometers where in its Coupé GT guise, the svelte four-seater has a formidable arsenal inside. The shape of the New Renault Laguna Coupe has an unmistakable Aston Martin influence making it stylish enough to turn heads. The Laguna Coupe’s sexy aluminium wheels lend it poise and emphasize its image of dynamic performance and power. Their helix design cleverly hides the nuts and bolts from sight, while also efficiently ensuring that the brake callipers cool. Developed to surpass the handling qualities of its predecessor, the New Laguna’s chassis will be appreciated for the precision of its steering and its capacity for cornering without roll.

This Laguna chassis brings many benefits, starting with improved manoeuvrability, sharpened dynamic response, and unrivalled steering precision giving the driver truly intuitive control over the cornering line, achieving new heights in drivability and active safety. In town and on back country roads, the car will be easy to drive: highly manoeuvrable and precise.
The New Renault Laguna Coupe also boasts a high standard of safety equipment with eight airbags, automatic lights and wipers, rear parking sensors and xenon headlights making it stylish and safe – who says that you can’t have your cake and eat it?

With a length of 4.64 metres and a width of 1.83 metres, its proportions are nicely balanced, while the character line which stems from the grille rises forcefully along its flanks, like a wave of air, gracefully underpinning the design of its front wings before extending rearwards to highlight its muscular haunches.

The glazed area of its windows is shown off to its best advantage by a pure, flowing arc. Sitting on its 18-inch aluminium alloy wheels, Renault Laguna Coupe’s stance exudes a sense of dynamism and power thanks to a wheelbase dimension of 2.69m and a height of 1.40m. This sensation is echoed by the pronounced crease-lines of its long bonnet and by its new variant headlamps. The rear, meanwhile, features a very short overhang and broad, slim lights which give this Renault a very cosmopolitan look. Laguna

The chassis excels in active safety, both under difficult braking conditions (with impressive control over asymmetrical grip and with the ESP matched to a more sporting driving style), and during avoidance manoeuvres at speed (‘elk’ test).

Additionally there is a BOSE® sound system and full colour 3D satellite navigation with Bluetooth and 230W audio system MP3 6CD changer (in-dash).
