Renault Logan is a cheap car from now on from the French manufacturer Renault, designed specifically for the markets of developing countries. The Russian variation of the second generation of the Renault Logan sedan, famous in the Russian Federation, was slightly declassified back in the spring of 2014. After some time, French specialists opened a list of configurations and named all the prices.
The second generation of the Logan car for buyers from Russia differs from the version produced for European countries not only in its exterior, but also in its technical component. Therefore, it makes sense to take a closer look at the second generation of Renault Logan, which is already ready to take the baton from its previous model, which is very popular among drivers of the Russian Federation. The entire Renault model range.
Exterior
In terms of external components, a new car with a different body design is actually seriously different. It’s very hard to even call a car budget, it’s so beautiful. Thanks to changes in the appearance of the car, the side of the car, rear and front were seriously transformed. As a result, the French-Romanian car looks more fresh and quite elegant, which could not be said about its predecessor. The nose of the 2nd generation Renault Logan sedan allows you to immediately notice all the changes.
Here came the presence of eye-catching rectangular headlights, an aggressive air intake with nameplates and a fine mesh, an original aerodynamic “lip”. The fog lights, which were located in black inserts, look very cool. There is a new design of the manufacturer's emblem and a stylish silhouette. Thanks to thoughtful design elements, a truly modern exterior is formed.
The horizontal slits of the false radiator grille with a large Renault diamond are decorated with a chrome trim. Due to the fact that the front bumper has an enlarged air intake, the car seems to hint at its sporting qualities. The fog lamp cannons are located on the front fairing and are a harmonious element on a fairly simple car. It’s worth saying right away that they will be installed only as a separate option.
The hood hinges, which are noticeable when closed, cause a little discomfort - this indicates an economy of design. From the side, the Renault Logan remains practically recognizable, but now it is crowned with convex wheel arches, neatly made on the wings and stampings on the lower part. As in the first generation, external door handles were made with a lower grip, and the lock cell was located under the handle itself.
The gas tank cap has a square shape, like in the pre-restyling model. There is also a fly in the ointment here, because the lid can only be opened with the help of a key, which remains in the cork after opening. For the plug itself, a special small loop was provided on the lid of the gasoline tank.
The aft part of the sedan received a large luggage compartment lid, on which the spoiler stamping was successfully located. Also noticeable is the compact rear bumper along with the stylish side lamp shades. The rear pillar is still very wide, but when compared to the previous model, it is more elegant. The rear-mounted lights extend horizontally, rather than upward, as was before.
Just because of the lights, the trunk opening became a little narrower. The trunk lid can be opened using a button, but the convenient “tab” that helped to open the trunk lid can no longer be found here, which is a shame; it was present in an earlier version. In general, if you quickly look at the Renault Logan, an association is created with the Lada Granta and Volkswagen Polo Sedan.
