Logan

Disclaimer

The Renault Logan is existing proof that large, stylish and technologically advanced cars don’t necessarily have to be overpriced. The sophisticated angles and elegant lines give the Renault Logan an air of exclusivity that some more expensive vehicle brands wish they could achieve.

However, while the Logan car is intensely stylish, its designers didn’t forgo function in favour of form. Meticulously built to the Renault brand’s renowned high standards, the Logan car is durable and reliable. With correct care and maintenance, your new Renault will last you for many years, even if you drive it frequently.

This Renault sedan is ideal for businesspeople who want to complement their sophisticated personality and drivers with families because of its balance between elegant aesthetics and spacious practicality. Moreover, its superior economy makes it cost effective to run when driving through heavy city traffic on a regular basis.

Whether you are sitting inside a Logan or are viewing it from the outside, it is clear that this Renault has been refined to meet visual and comfort requirements that are expected from a Renault car.

With its consistent body colouring, bold grille and strongly designed wheel arches, the new Logan means business and compels passersby to take notice. However, when one steps inside the vehicle, the stoic sensibilities of the vehicle seam to melt away in preference of comfort and ease of driving.

All controls are ergonomically designed to make drivers feel as if the Logan car is an extension of themselves. With relatively small movements, the driver can control almost every aspect of the journey in a Logan Renault.

While the external beauty and internal comfort are the first things a driver is likely to notice about the Logan Expression, they are perfectly complemented by its powerful engine and superior safety features.

Under the hood of the Logan 1.6, one will find an eight-valve, four-cylinder engine capable of producing 64kW of power at 5 500 revs per minute and 128Nm of torque at 3 100 revs per minute. Furthermore, the Logan Expression can reach a top speed of approximately 175 kilometres per hour and can accelerate from zero to 100 kilometres per hour in 11.5 seconds.

With regard to fuel consumption, the Logan 1.6 handles itself capably. Its combined cycle uses 7.2 litres per 100 kilometres, while its extra-urban cycle uses only 5.7 litres per 100 kilometres.

Renault places great emphasis on the safety of its customers (and their passengers) when travelling. Therefore, the Renault Logan 1.6 is equipped with an impressive selection of innovative and effective safety features. These include a collapsible steering column, height-adjustable seatbelts, Antilock Braking System (ABS) brakes with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) and a driver’s airbag.

Aptly named “Expression”, the Logan gives owners the opportunity to express their personalities by choosing from a wide selection of accessories such as roof bars, carpet mats and seatback protection covers.

When one thinks of a luxury sedan, one usually imagines it being attached to a hefty price tag. This is often the case; however, the Renault Logan bucks this trend by providing drivers with a sleek exterior, spacious interior, powerful engine and top-class accessories without the usual cost.
