SPY PHOTOS: New Renault Laguna Wagon and Sedan

In autumn 2007 the French car maker Renault will released the third generation Laguna at the Frankfurt Motor Show. The five door sedan came first on the market in 1993, the second generation followed in the year 2000. Now the new model is being developed under the code name X91, and here are the first good photos of both, the station wagon and the sedan. Laguna 3 is an all new car, and the prototype shots are revealing the new styling. However, Renault is taking serious steps to improve the new Laguna's quality, which had decreased considerably with the current model and consequently lost customers in a market segment dominated by Germany's Audi A4, BMW 3-Series, Mercedes C-Class, VW Passat and Ford Mondeo. The new Laguna will measure 10cm more in overall length than its predecessor, and it will be powered by petrol and diesel engines ranging from 115 to 245hp. The latter is a V6 3.5 litre powerplant from Nissan which is already being used in the Espace and Vel Satis models. Upon the release in Frankfurt, Renault will start with the sedan and station wagon with the a coupe version following some time later. The photos are showing: 1 computer generated image plus 2 spy photos of the station wagon prototype. 1 computer generated image plus 2 spy photos of the sedan prototype.
