The Renault Sandero is essentially a 5-door hatchback version of the Renault Logan with relatively better styling. The car will make its debut in the Brazilian market, with Argentina set to get the car next in February 2007. Later in 2008, it will reach the European market and Maghreb, and South Africa is set to get the car in 2009.
The Brazilian world debut is natural as the car is a co-development project by Brazilian RTA (Renault Technologies Americas) that began in 2005. Naturally, being a Brazilian market car it has a 1.6 litre 8V flex-fuel engine option, which complements the normal 1.0 16V and 1.6 16V engines.

Overall this car looks very cheap… Will it come to us?
a nice cheap car.
interior instrument-as simple as kancil/viva
this car will very likely not come to malaysia. you would have problems selling anything french made.
better buy Persona ni….
If only the French carmaker has parts manufacturing facility in South East Asia and collaboration with TCM to assemble it here. Then we may have this car in CKD form, and the first cheap new Continental car. The cheapest we have right now is the outdated Kangoo & Naza Bestari.
yea design an ugly and lousy car and sell to 2nd and 3rd world countries. works like a charm all the time.
nice car.
If it comes to Malaysia for about 40k, it would be a great competitor to a viva/myvi.
and + it’s a renault which has a much better build quality then them peroduas and protons.
i’d buy this.
but i’m not saying the viva/myvi isn’t good.
I know the audio system is supplied by one of the Malaysian Supplier the brand is called Blauplank. I believed It is the same as WIRA one. BELIEVED IT or NOT!
tak kisah la radio cap apa..dah namanya kete murah
the most bad story about french cars is GEARBOX
cheaply built and plasticy, for interior
not too bad design though
this car looks like the people who design it, took parts from everywhere and try to put it together. design looks so wrong… the wheel rim doesnt match… the side mirrors look like it will drop anytime… the bumpers look so cheap… i think for exterior wise, this car is a total failure… interior wise, it is being spared… although it still look cheap, very cheap…
Well it sell, when it comes to Europe? Kia Ceed’ is better looking than this

hullo, please google “blaupunkt” and you will know that this is not a Malaysian Supplier! Just because you’ve seen it in a Wira doesn’t mean it’s a Malaysian product ok? Or maybe you think “Bosch” is also a Malaysian Supplier?? : )
Fair design.
Want to buy it? Why not..
Sure! it will arrived at our shore IF Tan Chong interested.
Can it sell?
Sure! just rebadge as Nissan!
That Blauplank audio system is MADE IN MALAYSIA, believed or not!
