Renault Introduces Fluence Formula Edition

TC Euro Cars, sole franchise holder of Renault cars in Malaysia, has introduced a limited run Renault Fluence Formula Edition in the run-up to the 2016 Malaysian Grand Prix and also in celebration of Renault’s return to Formula One as a works team.

The Fluence Formula Edition is dressed in decals representing the colors of the French flag as well as a body kit, muffler cutter and two-tone black alloy wheels. On the inside, the Formula Edition gets maroon-colored premium leather seats and gloss black trim.

The powertrain remains unchanged with a Nissan-based 2.0-liter engine and X-Tronic CVT (continuously variable transmission also from Nissan) and as such still gets 143 PS and 195 Nm of torque to the front wheels.

Other features of the car include Electronic Stability Program (ESP) with traction control (ASR), 6 airbags, smart entry and smart with automatic ‘walk away’ door locking, climate control with rear air vents, Renault R-Link multimedia system with 7″ touchscreen, Bluetooth, USB connectivity and navigation. For cargo, the Fluence boasts boot space of 530 liters, one of the biggest in the C-segment.

The Fluence Formula Edition sells for RM 126,688 on the road without insurance, in a choice of Black Metallic or White Pearl body colors. This Formula Edition is also covered by a 5-year full manufacturer’s warranty (unlimited mileage) as well as the 5inFluence package which includes 5-years (or 100,000 km) free maintenance, 1-year genuine parts warranty, complimentary pick-up for scheduled servicing and 48-hour Mobility Solution (courtesy car).
