Renault Unveils 2009 Laguna Coupe At Cannes Film Festival

Renault unveiled its new 2009 model Laguna Coupe yesterday at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival. In comparison to the Laguna coupe concept, the production car has a subdued styling. It is built on the same platform as the Laguna hatchback with the same suspension layout. But it’s slightly shorter, lower and wider, measuring in at 4.64 metres in length and 1.83 meters in width and a wheelbase of 2.69 meter.

Higher-spec versions will be available with Renault’s Active Drive four-wheel steering system, as used on the Laguna GT. Latest Laguna comes with option of two new V6 powerplants. The brand new V6 dCi diesel, delivers 235hp (173kW), while the new 3.5-litre petrol-powered V6 offers 240hp (175kW). According to Renault, the Laguna Coupe is capable of accelerating from standstill to 100kph in less than seven seconds, and this upper-range performance combines with the Active Drive chassis and four-wheel steering to deliver optimum pleasure at the wheel.

More details of the Renault Laguna Coupe will be revealed during the car’s official public debut at the forthcoming Paris Motor Show and will be available for international media road tests immediately after that.

Earlier we showed you the spy shots of camouflaged pre-production Renault Megane hatchback & Laguna coupe. Now the guys at motorpasion.com have got hold of photos of production version 2009 Renault Megane 5-dr and coupe(3-dr). These photos are said to be taken from the pages of the French car magazine “Auto Plus”.

Both versions of 09 model Megane seem to follow a different set of design elements. The photos clearly reveal that the 3-dr coupe has borrowed its looks from the Renault Megane Coupe Concept shown at 2008 Geneva Motor Show earlier this year. As we informed you earlier the both variants of the 2009 Megane are expected to make their debut at this years Paris Auto Show in September. And once launched in market, the Megane might prove to be a bitter rival for both VW Golf and Ford Focus.
