The '''Renault Laguna''' is a [[large family car]] that was manufactured and marketed by [[Renault]] for 21 years in three body styles: [[hatchback]], [[coupé]], and [[Station wagon|estate]]. The first generation Laguna was launched in 1994, the second generation was introduced in 2000, and the third generation was built from October 2007 until 2015.

==Concept car==
The production Renault passenger models are unrelated to the [[concept car]] of the same name, the Laguna, a two-seater [[Roadster (automobile)|roadster]] presented by the automaker during the 1990 [[Paris Motor Show]].<ref>{{cite magazine|last=McCosh|first=Dan|title=Automotive Newsfront |magazine=Popular Science |date=January 1991 |volume=237 |issue=1 |url= https://books.google.com/books?id=zIARsrB04zgC&q=Renault+Laguna&pg=PA28 |access-date=24 September 2010 |page=28}}</ref> The name was also previously used from 1973 to 1976 by [[Chevrolet]], for a top-of-the-line Chevelle model, the [[Chevrolet Chevelle Laguna]].

With development underway from 1987, design work under [[Patrick Le Quément]] began in 1988, with a final design approval in March 1989, and a design freeze by the beginning of 1990. Road testing commenced in 1991 and continued through 1993. The first generation Renault Laguna was unveiled in November 1993 and launched in January 1994. It was the replacement for the [[Renault 21]], although it was initially only available as a [[hatchback]].

At the [[Frankfurt Motor Show#1995|Frankfurt Motor Show]] in September 1995, an [[station wagon|estate]] version was introduced. This was known in some markets as the '''Laguna Sports Tourer''', and replaced the [[Renault 21|Renault 21 Nevada/Savanna]]. It was initially launched as a 1.8 RN/RT, 2.0 RT/RXE, and 3.0&nbsp;V6. A sports pack with deep front [[Spoiler (car)|spoiler]], rear spoiler, and [[alloy wheels]] was available on 2.0 versions.

A limited-edition of 500 1.8 RT Sport was made available in 1996, one hundred each of five colours including a metallic blue normally reserved for 2.0 models. These limited editions sold out very quickly and so the RT Sport was incorporated into the standard range at a cheaper price but having [[Anti-lock braking system|ABS]], [[Automobile air conditioning|air conditioning]], CD/Radio, and high-level brake light added as standard (all these were options on the more expensive, original 500). This coincided with Renault's participation in the [[British Touring Car Championship]].

The Laguna's equipment levels were generally much higher than the Renault 21. From launch, all models came with [[power steering]], electric front windows, and remote central locking as standard. Most of the range had a driver's [[airbag]]. Later twin airbags, an anti-lock braking system, air conditioning, and a [[CD player]] became either optional extras or standard equipment.

In September 1996, minor upgrades included a new ''Laguna'' nameplate at the rear.

The Laguna received a moderate facelift in April 1998, including a restyling of the hatchback and the sports tourer versions, and a redesigned front. This also included a different facelifted design of the taillights, most noticeable are the circular fog lights in the front.

The engines were updated and, in some markets, equipment levels were enhanced again. Five new engines featured in the completed facelifted lineup:
* K4M 1.6 16v (109&nbsp;hp)
* F4P 1.8 16v (120&nbsp;hp)
* F3R 2.0 (114&nbsp;hp)
* N7Q 2.0 S (140&nbsp;hp)
* F4R 2.0 16v (139&nbsp;hp)
* L7X 3.0 V6 24v (190&nbsp;hp)
* F9Q turbo 1.9 dTi (turbocharged direct injection) (98&nbsp;hp)
* F9Q turbo 1.9 dCi (turbocharged [[common rail]] direct injection) (107&nbsp;hp)
* G8T turbo 2.2 dT (turbocharged indirect injection) (113&nbsp;hp)

For 2000, the final edition of this Laguna, the ''Laguna Concorde'', was introduced. It included semi-leather seats and vocal warnings like "Welcome. The vehicle computer... is now checking systems for you". The onboard computer would notify the driver of any doors not being closed, lights left on, etc., weather ("Please brake carefully the road is watery"), or other faults in the electrical or mechanical circuits.

The onboard voice synthesizer warnings system was also available on the earlier 1998 RXE and V6 models. This is the same basic unit as used in the [[Renault Safrane]].

The model of the Laguna Concorde was the last guise of the "old" Laguna to be marketed, prior to the release of the Laguna II at the end of 2000. The last of the Mk.1 Lagunas were registered in February 2001, and the Concorde range all feature a cream letter "C" on a dark green background. This was with the outline of an actual [[Concorde]] above the letter.

[[File:Laguna card montage.jpg|thumb|The Laguna's card system, and the replacement for a [[Ignition system|key ignition]]]]

After almost seven years in production, the original Laguna was replaced by an all new model in December 2000 for the 2001 model year. The engines were upgraded, and the equipment list made longer.

It was the first vehicle available in [[Europe]] to achieve five stars in the [[Euro NCAP]] [[crash test]] results, which was heavily promoted by Renault. The result was soon repeated in other models in Renault's range. This generation was made available in hatchback or estate (Grandtour) styles only.

The Laguna was the first European family car, and the second European car to feature "keyless" entry and ignition, developed by [[Valeo]].<ref>{{cite web|title=The Renault Cars Have Won Many Awards|date=March 2015 |url= http://www.anythingaboutcars.com/renault-cars.html |access-date=2017-10-15|archive-date=2017-10-15|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20171015150548/http://www.anythingaboutcars.com/renault-cars.html |url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=About Us » Renault New Zealand|url=http://www.renault.co.nz/about-us/|website=Renault.co.nz|access-date=2017-10-15|archive-date=2017-10-15|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20171015150601/http://www.renault.co.nz/about-us/ |url-status=dead}}</ref><ref name=":0">{{Cite web|date=2021-12-21|title=Vingt ans après, Renault évoque les "défaillances" de sa Laguna II|url= https://www.challenges.fr/automobile/anciennes/vingt-ans-apres-renault-evoque-les-defaillances-de-sa-laguna_793989 |access-date=2021-12-22 |website=Challenges|language=fr}}</ref> Instead of a [[Car key|key]], it used a [[credit card]] style device to unlock the car and start the engine.

The Laguna II won the title [[Semperit Irish Car of the Year]] in November 2001.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.eforecourt.com/body.htm/pid/217/catagory/general|title=Renault Laguna takes Semperit Irish Car of the Year crown|publisher=eforecourt|date=26 November 2001|access-date=17 October 2017|archive-date=24 July 2014|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20140724091201/http://eforecourt.com/body.htm/pid/217/catagory/general|url-status=live}}</ref>

The Laguna estate was only available with five seats, unlike the previous model which had seven seats as an option on some versions. It was badged as Sports Tourer or Grandtour, depending on the country. It was also marketed as a lifestyle vehicle, rather than a load carrier.

The Laguna II was facelifted in March 2005, being launched in the [[AutoRAI]] in Amsterdam, according to Renault with improved security, driving performance, and comfort. It also had a moderate redesign of the air intake at the front of the car, now matching the design of the [[Renault Mégane|Megane]]. Sales commenced on 18 March 2005.<ref>{{cite web|url= https://www.carpages.co.uk/renault/renault-laguna-22-02-05.asp |title=Renault Announces Prices for the New Laguna |website=carpages.co.uk |date=22 February 2005 |access-date=28 May 2020 |archive-date=12 June 2020 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20200612164518/https://www.carpages.co.uk/renault/renault-laguna-22-02-05.asp |url-status=live}}</ref>

An electronic handbrake was also introduced, this was previously seen on the [[Renault Scénic|Scénic]] and [[Renault Espace|Espace]]. The engines were much the same as before, with the 1.6 and 1.8 petrol units being offered in some markets, while other countries get a 2.0 petrol unit (turbo or non-turbo) and two diesels (1.9 or 2.2 direct injection).

After the facelift, a new diesel engine was introduced, the 2.0 dCi with {{cvt|150|hp-metric|kW|0}} and another variant of the engine which produced {{cvt|175|hp-metric|kW|0}}.

The '''Renault Laguna III''' was officially announced in a press release on June 4, 2007. The car was unveiled to the public at the [[Frankfurt Motor Show]] in September, and it went on sale in October 2007 for the 2008 model year. The car comes as a five-door [[hatchback]] (B91), a five-door [[station wagon|estate]] (K91), and for the first time a two-door [[coupé]] (D91).<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |date=2023-01-14 |title=Renault Laguna Coupé : l'échec relatif - Station Haxo |url=https://www.stationhaxo.fr/2023/01/14/renault-laguna-coupe-lechec-relatif/ |access-date=2023-01-14 |website=www.stationhaxo.fr |language=fr-FR}}</ref>

This third generation is based on the [[Nissan D platform|platform D]], shared with the [[Nissan Altima]], the [[Nissan Teana]], and the [[Nissan Murano]]. The Laguna III was the first car to have gone through the Aubevoye Technical Centre's ''Electro Magnetic Compatibility'' unit, in the course of its development.

The coupé version was first presented as a concept car, at the [[Frankfurt Motor Show#2007|2007 Frankfurt Motor Show]], which followed some styling cues of the previous concept car, the [[Renault Fluence]]. The production version was revealed at the 2008 [[Cannes Film Festival]], coinciding with the [[Monaco Grand Prix|Monaco Formula 1 Grand Prix]] to take the wraps off.

The brand new [[V6]] dCi engine delivers 235&nbsp;hp (173&nbsp;kW), while the new 3.5 litre petrol powered V6 offers 240&nbsp;hp (175&nbsp;kW). The Laguna Coupé later appeared before the general public at the [[Paris Motor Show]] in October 2008. In January 2008, spy images of a then possible Laguna Sedan appeared on the internet.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.worldcarfans.com/9080115.009/renault-laguna-sedan-spied |title=Renault Laguna Sedan Spied |publisher=Worldcarfans |access-date=2009-05-01 |archive-date=2009-03-09 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20090309094503/http://www.worldcarfans.com/9080115.009/renault-laguna-sedan-spied |url-status=live }}</ref>

It was expected the car having appeared at the [[2008 Paris Motor Show]].<ref>{{cite web|url= http://www.worldcarfans.com/10802052427/more-renault-laguna-sedan-spy-pics |title=More Renault Laguna Sedan Spy Pics|work=Worldcarfans |date=2008-02-05|access-date=2015-05-04|archive-date=2015-05-05|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150505003027/http://www.worldcarfans.com/10802052427/more-renault-laguna-sedan-spy-pics |url-status=live}}</ref> However, this never made it to production. The [[Renault Latitude]] and the third generation (L43) [[Renault Samsung SM5]], which is made by [[Renault Samsung Motors]], [[South Korea]] is based on the Laguna III.

A facelifted version of the Laguna III, called the '''Phase 2''', débuted at the [[2010 Paris Motor Show]], and sales began in November 2010.

It has an aggressive front end compared to the older model. The range has been redesigned around six trim levels: Expression, Black Edition, Eco Business, Bose, GT 4Control, and Initiale. Engine side, the only change is the engine 1.5 dCi 110&nbsp;hp, with {{CO2}} emissions, decreased from 130 to 120g/km.
