A very comfortable car for long drives but the problem is with reno service. You have to spend atleast 80000 per year for its maintainance and the resell value is nothing more than 3 lakhs. Having bought it for 17 lakhs and then selling it for 3 lakhs is the worst feeling you can have on your own decision after driving it only for 70000 km.

Exterior is nice. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) is poor. no much features. Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good. Ride Quality & Handling is very good. Areas of improvement lot to say in this segment. just pray God before you send this car to service station. I have 2 experiences. 1. Few months back I went to a trip for 10 days and after coming back to home I started my fluence and found that the diesel trigger was damaged by a rat. service engineer advised to replace the entire set along with the diesel trigger. I paid nearly 18000/- for that. But in my view diesel trigger is a rubber product and if the company supplies it as a baby part it may cost around one or two thousand only. 2. Now the a/c is not workig properly because of the problem with evaporator coil. There is no stock with the dealer in vijayawada. Even after a week that part is not available with the dealer. After giving complaint to renault they advised me to replace the entire a/c blower set. Evaporator coil costs around 26000 and entire a/c blower set cost about 52,000/-. Now the company people are saying that they are helpless to provide baby part i.e evaporator coil. We can understand that the evaporator coil price is much more than any other car's coil. But how can we accept that for a small part we have to change the entire unit? Just imagine if the door handle has the problem and you are advised to change the door. My car has the problem with front suspension also. They are advising to change the entire suspension worth 85,000. Finally I advise you to buy this car but sell it before waranty period expires. My strong suggession to the company is to simplify spares as small as possible to reduce maintainance cost. Instead of spending money for these kind of spares it is better to spend money for charities.very good ride quality, stability even at high speeds and good mileageless pickup, no much features

I love my vehicle, they have made an excellent piece of art and I appreciate it, I have been using it from 2011 and it has been 5 years of sheer pleasure. But on the way there were small painful hurdles made painful because of the long duration. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interiors are durable, they really last the drill. excelptions are the door handles and the music system, they get scratched if you touch them with your fingernails. Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is good and is better with the newer models, fuel economy depends on your service center guy they can tweak the engine a lot and that can change everything. Gearbox is smooth and excellent. Ride Quality & Handling Its smooth as an airplane and handling is as easy as driving a maruti 800. Final Words Buy Fluence and Pray that everything goes well. Areas of improvement Spares Spares! small spares!! especially in Mysore. Break cables, wipers, batteries fro key, floor mats, small interior light bulbs, none of them are available! You have to drive down to nearest metro city to get them. Service is poor and not helpful. All they know to do is Replace. An exageration would be asking the customer to replace the door if the door lock is damaged! :) Renault could relook into the attitude of the serive dealers. Whether every replacement they do is actually necessary? If customers feel that a company resorts to earn more through service than the product itself then may be it is not very good idea to go purchase even if the product is good. (just like maruti).The product- everything from bumper to the ashtray, The drive - smooth and swift, comfort excellentno spares (not even a wiper!) , media player plastics, service centres of mysore not helpful

Exterior Good. Strong body very robust and safe not like japanese or korean cars. Looks are different and good to look. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Excellent leg space all features are present only auto box is missing. it s got cruise control which is very helpful on highways. a/c is very effective even  in 38deg c Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine power is decent , could have better. at speeds of 100-120 you get upto 18kmpl in highways with ac. clutch is bit hard in city conditions. A very reliable highway cruiser. Ride Quality & Handling Handling is very good. Ride quality one of the best cars inthe segment. service cost is 10000 per service for every 10k kms.over rough patches you do not feel anythingi n the cabin. I have driven 20000 kms in a year. Absolutely fine. done two oil change service. Final Words Happy with the car would suggest eveyone intrested  to buy a car in this segment to have a look at fluence. a very under rated car. Areas of improvement Formatting.good fuel economy, Ride quality.power could be better
