Renault Laguna Coupe 2.0dCi180 FAP
Renault Laguna Coupe GT 2.0dCi180 FAP
What is it?
ONE of the most stylish Renaults ever – and a properly desirable, yet affordable coupe. Based on the Laguna hatchback, the Coupe gets a slightly sportier chassis with four-wheel steering and a wide range of engines, including V6 petrol and diesel units. Tested here in more business-friendly 177bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder dCi form
What’s hot?
- Looks svelte from every angle…
- …particularly from behind thanks to that Aston V8 Vantage tail
- Cabin quality is excellent. Superb seats
- Equipment levels are sky-high with climate control and leather
- Diesel engine is quiet and lusty…
- …resulting in refined motorway cruising and punchy overtaking
- Four-wheel steering system helps slice through corners
- Returns 43.4mpg combined is impressive
- Surprising amount of rear seat space. Decent boot
What’s not?
- Ride is too firm, especially over small bumps
- Steering is lightly weighted and vague…
- …while the gearchange feels rubbery
- Cabin design should be more special
- Emissions are too high at 172g/km of CO2…
- …which means it’s the 10% WDA banding
- Residual values may be a problem
