Our take on this /// Verdict

The Renault Fluence Diesel E4 is a highly underrated yet compelling option in the Indian market. It stands out for its exceptional comfort, impressive ride quality, and engaging driving dynamics. The 1.5-litre k9k diesel engine, producing 110 PS of power and 240 Nm of torque, offers robust performance once you overcome the initial turbolag. The 6-speed manual transmission, although slightly notchy, is well-suited for both city and highway driving. The Fluence excels in handling, with a steering that is light at low speeds and weights up nicely at higher speeds, making it a joy to drive on various road conditions. However, the heavy clutch and lack of automatic transmission might be a drawback for some. Overall, its a great choice for those seeking a fun-to-drive vehicle with good comfort, practicality, and space, despite being on the higher side of the price spectrum.

Price

The Renault Fluence Diesel E4 was priced in the range of Rs. 14.73 lakh to Rs. 16.31 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) during its time in the market. On-road prices would typically add another Rs. 2-3 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes, bringing the total to around Rs. 16.73 lakh to Rs. 19.31 lakh. While this places the Fluence in a competitive segment, the value it offers in terms of performance, comfort, and features makes it a worthwhile consideration. However, its important to note that the Fluence has been discontinued, so any purchases would be through the used car market.

Latest Updates

Wednesday, 19 March 2014 11:16 PM The Renault Fluence facelift was launched in India on March 19, 2014, featuring a major front end revamp with a larger Renault logo, redesigned headlamps, a new bumper with integrated fog lamps and daytime running lights. The diesel variant, including the E4, comes with a 110 PS 1.5-liter diesel motor producing 240 Nm of torque. I think these updates make the Fluence a more competitive option in its segment.

Wednesday, 19 March 2014 11:36 AM The Renault Fluence E4 diesel features advanced safety features such as ESP, traction control, and side-chest airbags along with standard front airbags. These safety enhancements make the Fluence a safer choice in its segment. I think these features are a big plus for safety-conscious buyers.

Thursday, 20 March 2014 12:08 AM The updated Fluence E4 diesel comes with comfort and convenience features like cruise control, 16-inch alloy wheels, rain sensing wipers, and dusk sensing headlamps. These additions enhance the overall driving experience and comfort. I believe these features make the Fluence a more appealing option for those seeking a premium feel.

Wednesday, 19 March 2014 08:53 PM The Renault Fluence E4 diesel is powered by a 1.5-liter diesel motor that produces 110 PS and 240 Nm of torque, mated to a six-speed manual transmission. It has an ARAI certified fuel efficiency of 20.4 kmpl, making it a fuel-efficient choice. This balance of power and efficiency is quite impressive.

Wednesday, 19 March 2014 10:31 AM The facelifted Renault Fluence, including the E4 diesel variant, retained its mechanical specifications but received significant cosmetic updates. This approach ensured that the car remained mechanically reliable while looking fresh and modern. I think this was a smart move by Renault.

Friday, 14 March 2014 10:56 AM The facelifted Renault Fluence, including the E4 diesel variant, was available for booking with a payment of Rs 50,000. The car was dispatched to dealerships across India before its official launch. This pre-launch booking strategy likely generated significant interest among potential buyers.

Friday, 14 March 2014 11:46 AM The production of the updated Renault Fluence, including the E4 diesel variant, was already underway before its launch, indicating Renaults confidence in the models appeal. This proactive approach likely helped in meeting demand promptly after the launch.

Tuesday, 03 April 2012 05:59 PM Renault launched the upgraded Fluence E4 D in April 2012, with an updated diesel engine developed in collaboration with Daimler. The engine now produces 110 PS, up from 106 PS, and maintains a torque of 240 Nm. The E4 D variant also includes features like 16-inch alloy wheels, ESP, traction control, leather upholstery, and automatic headlamps and wipers. This upgrade makes the Fluence a better value proposition.

Tuesday, 03 April 2012 04:26 PM The Renault Fluence E4 D was priced at Rs 15.2 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) after the 2012 Union Budget, making it one of the more affordable diesel sedans in its segment, competing with the Toyota Corolla diesel. The new taxation slightly increased the price but kept it competitive. I believe this pricing strategy helped Renault attract more buyers.

Tuesday, 03 April 2012 06:07 AM The Renault Fluence E4 diesel was part of Renaults strategy to strengthen its presence in the Indian market by offering a well-rounded and feature-rich diesel sedan. This move helped Renault to compete more effectively against other premium sedans. I believe this strategy was crucial for Renaults market positioning.

Mileage

Thursday, 21 November 2024 05:16 AM The Renault Fluence Diesel E4 boasts an impressive mileage of 20.4 kmpl as per ARAI certification, although real-world mileage tends to be around 13-14 kmpl in mixed driving conditions. This makes it a relatively fuel-efficient option, especially for those who spend a significant amount of time on the road. The fuel efficiency, combined with its robust engine performance, makes it a good choice for those concerned about running costs.
