Another variant of the Renault Logan has been launched, one with a pick-up body, making total variants now up to 4 – a sedan, a station wagon (Logan MCV with windows and Logan VAN without windows), a hatchback (Sandero) and now a pick-up.
The 4500mm long, 1740mm wide and 1550mm tall Logan pickup has an internal luggage compartment of 300 litres. The pick-up bed fits objects as long as 1880mm. The rear opening width is 1200mm, and maximum payload is 800kg.
Under the hood is a choice of one petrol engine or two 1.5 DCi turbodiesel engines. The petrol engine is a 8 valve 1.6 litre that makes 90 horses at 5,500rpm and a peak torque of 128Nm. The 1.5 DCi is available in two stages of tune: 70 hoses and 85 horses. All engines are mated to a 5-speed manual.

Saga MK2 shud have tis type of pick up body too…
Nice. Remember Arena? Even Mini had a pickup version. Morris Minor too, for those of you who studied in KL around Kg. Pandan and Jalan Pasar in the late 80s the ‘Charcoal Man’ who drove around drove a Morris Minor pickup. Very cool.
Any car that is a pick-up sure the cool factor for me! Kudos to Renault with the Logan.
Arena need it … 1.5TDI
arena brother maybe……
yeah…. like arena or proton jumbuck…
interior like BLM
this gonna do very wel in places like africa,south america and india…very practical
What a horrible looking thing
Lets do Persona pick-up!
erks don introduce it here…no wun will buy it…but second though maybe some will buy it since it is not p1…import brand is always good….(some of the typical malaysian thingking)
someone thought the proton jumpback was a good idea…
proton is way better i think…
Haha that’s cute… but I think the Arena looks a lil better…
The Arena’s still a bestseller down under…
proton basher leh?
come here n bash it like u are bashing proton arena~~
Imagine a pickup persona
An arena style pickup. Not sure if it will sell well. Maybe it will in idia…
Seen the car in sedan form when I was Mallorca, not bad at all, slightly bigger than our MK2 Saga, a serious contender.
As for the pickup, I think Proton has its own plans to develope the Arena replacement model (Gen-2 pickup?) and maybe the Saga pickup as well.
Time will tell.
our Arena aka Jumbuck looks better than this (exterior)…..
Renault version of Arena. We heard of the PSA-Citroen collobration between them and Proton right? Is this another technology transfer to Renault from Proton? Vice-versa the engine used in Savvy and the now defunct Waja 1.8.
You are asking whether Proton is transferring their ‘Arena pickup’ technology to Renault????
How I wish that is true! hahaha. It should be vice versa la bro.
Another thing, there is no such thing as PSA-Citroen-Proton collaboration. It falls apart and never took place.

proton has two units of Logan for benchmarking purpose.
Dacia is the company that Proton should learn from…
this is just a rebadge Dacia Logan lol…some former communist created car for the masses. i assure you that the Proton Arena is much better looking then this
