2013 Renault Fluence coming soon to India

The Fluence has always been a good looking car but its been around for a while so Renault used the Istanbul Auto show to release it's facelifted Fluence . The biggest change is the adoption of Renaults new signature grille that we've already seen on the Twingo, Clio and Alpine concep t. It's been neatly integrated on the Fluence and goes well with the tweaked headlamps. A new bumper neatly incorporates LED day time running lights as well as a set of fog lamps. The side and rear profile remains largely unchanged and we expect the India specific model will run on smaller wheels as well.

The new car gets a 1.6-litre petrol engine that pushes 115PS through a CVT auto box. The 110PS diesel engine will continue while Renault will also offer the new diesel dCi 130 engine good for 130PS in certain markets. The car goes on sale this month in Turkey and will follow in 55 countries, including ours, over the course of the year.
