The load master, which is also interesting for fleet customers, is available from 34,600 francs and the Frenchman is available with five engines.

With the Talisman, Renault wants to recapture market share in the upper mid-range. First the sedan was launched, now the station wagon follows. Renault Switzerland had originally expected to sell 90 % of the Talisman as an estate, but customers reacted so positively to the saloon that the saloon share was revised upwards to 30 % for the market launch of the estate.
Interesting model especially for fleet customers
In terms of clientele, Renault only assumes fleet buyers for the station wagon, which is why the sedan is only available in the two top engines, dCi 160 and TCe 200, and in the "Intens" and "Initiale Paris" trims. The Grandtour, on the other hand, starts with a 110 hp diesel (dCi 110) and is listed on the Swiss price list with a total of five engines. The entry-level "Life" trim is already equipped with the electronic TFT instrument cluster, navigation and DAB+ radio, among other features. Various assistance systems, such as the 4Control all-wheel steering system, are nevertheless reserved for the higher trim levels.
Five driving mode programs are part of the equipment
Despite its length of just under 4.90 meters, the Talisman Grandtour with 4Control is agile and nimble, the level of comfort is high, and the character of the car can be changed noticeably and harmoniously via the standard Multisense driving mode selection (five programs), from sporty to comfortable to particularly economical. Prices for the station wagon start at 34,600 francs and end at 48,300 francs with the top diesel in the highest equipment. A good price-performance ratio.
