2011 Model New Renault Fluence Review and Pictures



The Fluence is all about space. It has 530 liters of boot space and Renault claims it has more passenger space than any major rival. Interior stats include 1,480mm of elbow room at the front, and 1,475mm at the rear. The driver’s seat can be adjusted 240mm fore/aft and 35mm +/- in height, and the steering wheel has both rake and reach adjustment. The cabin features 23 liters of storage, including a 9 liter refrigerated glovebox and a 2.2 liter centre console cubby. The 530 liter boot has a low sill and a 1,020mm wide entry for easier loading.

It’s got decent specifications too. All models including entry level ones will get rear aircond vents, and dual zone control for the front is an option. Renault has also made available a hands-free entry and ignition system using a card. As the card-holder walks away from the car, the doors will lock automatically. You’ve got up to 6 airbags, ABS, and stability control.

In the engine bay, for now diesel and petrol engines are available. All the diesel models qualify for Renault’s eco2 branding, which means CO2 emissions of 119g/km. In 2011, Renault will be introducing an all-electric Fluence, which technology most likely adapted from the Nissan Leaf EV.

The petrol engines include a 140hp 2.0 mated to either a manual or a CVT. This is likely the same engine and transmission combination available in the Sylphy. There is also a 110hp 1.6 liter engine. The eco2 Diesel engines all use the same 1.5 dCi block but with different stages of tune – 85, 90 DPF, 105, 110 DPF and another 110 DPF mated to a new twin-clutch transmission.

RON95 – RM1.80 per liter from 1st September

Those who think that their fuel tank refills will cost less by RM0.05 per liter because they’ve switched to RON95 as their regular fuel have to wipe their smile off their faces – the government has announced that RON95 will be priced at the old RON97 price of RM1.80 per liter from midnight onwards.

As for RON97, we already know that a price hike is imminent – it will be priced at RM2.05 per liter. RON92 has been phased out. No news about Shell V-Power for now, as it is it’s been removed from a significant amount of stations. They are probably still trying to figure out the sweet spot for pricing and planning the logistics for supply to stations.

This is expected really, considering crude oil per barrel closed US$72.75 a barrel on Friday, which is up 20% from around US$60 in July. There are various factors for this but the most quoted reasons are an improving global economy and a declining US dollar – the lower USD’s values are, the more USD you will have to pay per barrel.

Nissan Dualis 2WD 5dr wagon range review


NISSAN has finally given the Dualis the break it deserves with the new and far-more cost competitive front-wheel drive models.

Marketed as a ‘Hatch Plus’, the competent European-built small-car crossover ticks every single box needed for it to become a formidable challenger against the likes of the mid-range Toyota Corolla, Mazda 3 and VW Golf.

Priced from $24,990, there is every chance that Nissan in Australia may finally see the success that the Dualis – as the Qashqai – has enjoyed overseas.

Suzuki Alto 5-dr hatch range review


THE first affordable A-segment car – as well as the first Indian-built passenger car – has landed in Australia in the form of Suzuki’s all-new Alto hatchback.

Priced from a bargain-basement $12,490 plus on-road costs (plus $2000 for an automatic transmission), the base Alto GL comes standard with six airbags, ABS brakes, four seats and air-conditioning, while the premium Alto GLX adds electronic stability control, alloy wheels and a range of extra features.

Both models return average fuel consumption of 4.8L/100km, increasing to 5.5L/100km for the automatic version, leading Suzuki to claim the Alto offers hybrid-like fuel economy for about a third the price - without compromising safety, style or driving dynamics.

Honda Civic Si 5-dr hatch Review


HONDA must seem crazy pitching a mainstream five-door hatchback against long-established chi-chi small-car luminaries such as the BMW 1 Series, Audi A3 and up-spec VW Golf.

And the Civic Si hatch – for all its striking design and packaging solutions – does seem expensive against the premium Europeans.

But Honda has always engineered its evergreen Civic to a standard that has always felt a cut above the everyday runabout, and the English-built Si – from $38,990 – does have plenty of standard features included.

Dacia launch possible in 2010 (UK)


Renault’s managing director has refused to rule out a UK launch for its budget brand Dacia. Roland Bouchara said in an exclusive interview that the company has only put off the launch of the brand in the UK due to the Pound’s weakness against the Euro and he said the situation would be looked at again in 2010.

“The weakness of the Pound meant we had to cancel the planned launch of Dacia,” said Bouchara. “There was no way it could be sold at a profit.”

The Pound has been recovering rapidly since its drop last year and earlier this year, and Bouchara expects that recovery to continue into 2010. If a Dacia launch were to happen, it would include a range of cars rather than single models such as the Sandero.

“Dacia will soon have a full range of cars, which would spread the cost of a launch,” said Bouchara. “We will take another look at it in 2010.”

Dacia's UK launch has been put off since 2008 due to the very delicate state of the British economy, which is now stabilising.
