Renault Lodgy User Reviews

Renault lodgy was not even on my mind when I set out to buy an MPV. I was fixated on buying either innova or ertiga but none seemed to click. I then test drove lodgy and I was pretty surprised how good it was! I took another test drive just to be sure about my decision, this time with my family. We loved the car. I drive to drop my children, to go to office and sometimes for short business trips. it is really affordable and even for a diesel car it gives so much driving pleasure. 1461 cc engine and features like ABS, EBD, airbags, makes it really a value for money car. thrilled to have bought this car. Renault thanks for this awesome car with so many features that I just couldn’t find a reason to not buy it. Happy and proud owner of the all new lodgy.

Exterior It varies person to person but i love its looks. DRLs should have been LED.

InteGrior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good cabin space, comfor level is high. Ride quality, especially suspensions are impressive. Suspension are superior than so called market leaders!! AC is strong, ducts for all three rows. Adjustable seats is good feature. Music system is professionally tuned.seating position and visibility is noticeable. Often i drive 450km without any fatigue.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Enginr is superb...silent and powerfull. Driving is a skill and hence mileage defers from person to person. Gearbox is smooth. I get 15kmpl easily with AC. Even clocked 18kmpl sometimes.

Ride Quality & Handling Handling is easy. Since it is my very first vehicle, i learnt driving skills with this car only. Though more than 4mtrs in length, i did not find any difficulty till date.

Final Words Awesome car. under rated but superior than its alternatives!!

Areas of improvement More  Instrumentation required for 110RXL at this price or atleast manual configuration at the time of purchase or  upgradation facility required. 16nch wheels required. Spares are bit on higher side, compulsory labour part added by dealers on purchase of materil. LED DRLs are required.

Exterior It is a good loking SUV. If the tyre size increase similar to Innova, will be excellent. The Honey Comb look is very attactive.😊

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Lots of space for passengers, I like the last row removal option. Very good place is available to accomodate luggage.Very comfortable for long journey. Best family car available now in the market.😎

Multimedia device is excellent, speakers are of good quality.Seats are of good quality. Two nos of Ac vent are very useful. Flexibility of seating arrangement is excellent.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good pickup with full load, good control in City road, Good fuel economy and gear shifting is very smooth. I like the SUV.

Ride Quality & Handling Easy to ride, very comfortable with full load, eight passengers rather than Mobilo or Ertiga. As it is a big car needs space to park.

Final Words I like the SUV very much. Excellent quality SUV. Go for it. It is total value for money.

Areas of improvement If the number of Service center increase in kolkata will be excellent, If this car come with bigger tyre size may be a good for it.

Exterior There are other MUV’s that might have good interiors but definitely fails to impress when it comes to exteriors. Lodgy stands-out as one of the cars that not just has good interiors but has brilliantly designed exteriors.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) As I already mentioned, Lodgy has great interiors. It’s the most spacious car in the segment. Built in touch screen, navigation system is nice and handy. Lack of iPod compatibility is little disappointing. There are no music controls on the steering, but its fine as I believe steering is the critical part of your drive and should be equipped with driving essentials only. Seating’s redefine comfort.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox My only concern is the fuel economy but hopeful that Renault will cover this gap in further variant. Else performance and gearbox works really smooth. Even pick-up is fast and smooth.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality so far is good, good and good! Ertiga, Innova are pretty much difficult in terms of handling but Lodgy’s ride quality is a great to experience. You won’t feel tired even on long drives.

Final Words So I feel those who have experienced Innova and Ertiga should definitely drive Lodgy to feel the difference and for sure its going to great. 

Areas of improvement Fuel economy.

Exterior I will sum up in one word ‘Graceful’! Lodgy’s exterior is just graceful. Front grille deserves a special attention and so are the metal alloy wheels. It will never fail to gather the attention when passing by a crowd.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) It has an ample spaced seating arrangement. Legroom, headspace is enough to conduct a free-movements. Comfort wise it feels exceptional. Bootspace is enough to accommodate a luggage of around 200L which can be extended to 1000L.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Apart from its interiors and exteriors, Lodgy deserves a good amount of appreciation for its engine performance. It’s powerful and smooth. Driving on highways is much like cruising.

Ride Quality & Handling Works great. Easy in handling and superb in driving.

Final Words I was doubtful whether Lodgy is going to prove satisfactory or not as I purchased it based on few conversations and some online reviews and now after driving for almost 4-5 months I am very happy with my decision.

Exterior I always wanted to buy a car which is big enough to accommodate my family of 8 members well. It should also have a good design/exteriors and, most important, should be available in my favourite color, white. I had a bad experience of driving Innova, so I didn't even gave a second thought of considering Innova for purchase. Next I went to Renault’s showroom as my friend suggested taking a look of new Lodgy. The sales official guided me properly about features and specifications of lodgy and also mentioned about variants out of which I can choose the one that fits in my budget and needs.  And I finally booked a car that not looks great but appeared much like a perfect family car. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Comfort in lodgy is of par excellence. The car has brilliant interiors like Touch-screen display, Integrated music system, 12V power outlets etc. and is immensely spacy.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I am not much into how engine performs as my driver drives most of the time, and he never complained so far about any issues in engine performance nor do I felt any issues by myself. Fuel economy is I noted once goes well upto 20 kmpl.

Ride Quality & Handling Great!

Final Words Undoubtedly a majestic car for a majestic family!

Areas of improvement More safety features can be added at the price.

The Indian market share of cars is on a drastic rise. With the availability of suitable finance options, a car is now everyone's reality. One can seek out of the plethora of cars the one which suits well to his/her budget as well as needs. I was in need of a car that is big and spacious enough to accommodate my family of 7. Initially I thought of Innova but then rejected the thought. With a little internet research I came to know about Lodgy which is a Multi-utility vehicle (MUV), available in a capacity of 7 and 8. I didn't pay much attention to dimensions. My only concern is that the car should have a capacity of at least 7 and should be comfortable for long rides. With all things in place I bought lodgy after consulting with the renault official. I and my family agreed on planet grey colored lodgy. The car looks fabulous in grey. Jewel studded front grille, roof rails and curvy body gives an extraordinary touch to its exteriors. Lodgy has unmatched engine performance. The dCi engine makes driving performance really smooth and simple. You don't just drive but you enjoy your drive, even gearbox works nicely. I strongly recommend this car if your need a big, spacious family car.

Lodgy is a family car and speaking about, my family, it never walks out for a long drive without that extra luggage. But thanks to Lodgy's spacious design, it fits 7 members with great ease and still leaves a good amount of space for luggage. Even the 3rd row seat is comfortable enough for long journies. And if luggage still demands space there is a choice of folding or detaching the seat to add extra space. Lodgy is pretty good on Indian roads. Mileage is nice. The next thing that I presume should have been the preceding comment is Lodgy exteriors. Lodgy is a class apart MUV, the reason being its impressive exteriors. Roof-rails. metal alloy wheels, front metal grille gives a touch of luxury to Lodgy. Even interiors offer a decent number of choice of functions. I love to go with my family on long drives and holidays and even my family never fails to appreciate the quality of drive every time.

Buying an MUV was never in my thoughts. I would prefer the sedan over anything. But considering my big family sedan was not a suitable choice. So with a ponderous heart and reluctant mind, I stepped into a renault’s showroom to check out an MUV as I heard their MUVs are one of the finest performings in India. But the moment I encountered the car I was astonished. As Renault claim, it was truly a style quotient. The front metal grille, stylish roof rails and wheel claddings and topped with dark slate grey color, overall, created a stunning impression. Even Though I was reluctant to look for MUV as my next car but I was well aware of the engine performance of Renault. Their car engines are exceptionally great giving a driving experience like never before. Lodgy has Renault finest engine called dCi which is smooth in performance. Talking about the variant I confirmed after test-driving, The interiors of it were nice in appeal. It was spacious enough to make my family utilize all the space well without compromising on comforts. The ride quality and handling were smooth, I didn’t feel any jerks on gear shifts. The throttle input was quickest. Overall a great car if space, performance is in your thoughts and without compromising in design.
