Paul Tan on the Automotive Industry
These are artist impressions of the upcoming 2007 Renault Laguna. Nissan’s large car platform is currently the FF-L platform. The new Renault Laguna will likely share this platform with the Nissan Altima/Nissan Primera. Rumours are that there will be both lift-back sedan and coupe versions, and even possible an estate version. Two more impressions after the jump!

This differs so much from the dumb spastic looking Kangoo. Way to go Renault!
back on track…thumbs up to renault!
My goodness, Renault sure has the guts to copy Alfa Romeo…
The two designs after the jump plainly sucked donkey's ****, whoever designed it must surely be some lousy designer…
da front ok,but da back is too simple..
Nissan Primera with a Z4 butt XD
As Renault starting to pick up in the F1 race i think that Renault should really do something better for their cars! Renault have potential but not enough nice car, these 2 picture really nice!
Holy #@%&*!!!! The coupe version is really amazing!!!! BMW M6's new rival perhaps, lol~
I like the first design, second design rear has some problem…
Impressive lookin. Question to ask : How much, and how fast
holly!.. the design rockS!!.. totally different from the current laguna by alot!
notice the profile of the 4 door look similar to the volvo S40.. i might have prblem entering the back seats! sure gonna ketuk my kepala!
nice work nissan/ renault!
In 4-door version, the design seemed like match made in heaven. While in 2-door mode, there's like something missing…it's only artist impressions anyway. Hope they at least change something for the 2-door version. Need to inject some more ooomph and make it kau-er.
well..the thing..is..will it ever come to malaysia!!!!?
I like both designs… the 2 door second version's rear looks quite classic.. hehe…
err…
pardon me but doesn't the 1st picture looks like the back of a skyline?
must be the same designer since renault owns nissan..
da laguna back looks like da new lexus IS ler .
but da 2 door sport car looks pretty .
Looking at design cues, these Reanault has some Austin Martin's DNA in it.
Do you notice the headlamp is our MyVI design.
I did a chop of the Laguna III before some time ago, wasn't my best effort…

i dunnola…mostly french carmakers gt a really ugly car dsg…most of the car really ugly…way to go in term of dsg…
There is this company Kagoo that I use sometimes. It is really nice and fun car. Not too powerful, so have to plan a bit when driving. And, that is good as I actually put more attentuion into driving. Test drive a Kagoo, it is quite a revelation. By the way, I am NOT a Renault cars salesman !!
french carmakers always trying to look futuristic untill their car look so ugly…however, the sedan is nice… coupe=ugly
The models are in Renault trend but I saw better in others auto show room. The problem with Renault (despite F1 results) is funny: look like a fast car but is a sedated old family car. If you want some petrol in your veines at same price buy a Mazda RX8. At least you'll feel like driving! The rest, you can't complain: alot of electronic gadgets, very comfortable, but as I said, sedated.
Hows it going.The renault Kangoo is a real fun car to drive and if you have a spare hour you should give it a go.Anyone who says it isn't is a cowboy.Its my personal favourite.The other day I was driving it up to Paris Decor to get my ralish and honey roasted ham and i really found it comfy.Have a nice day.
