Renault Logan 2004 - 2012 Review

The car's engine is considered economical with a capacity of 1600 cc and saves fuel at 7.2 liters per 100 km. The engine generates 90 horsepower and achieves good performance with the help of a 5-speed manual transmission. Some owners consider the car's traction not good and not suitable for a 1600 cc engine as if it were a 1000 cc engine, as it is slow traction. This is because the engine is 8 valves and not 16 valves, which affects the car's traction. The 4-speed Steptronic automatic version comes with a larger 16-valve engine and a balance shaft.

Among the problems that many owners have complained about is the transmission wobble when pressing the gas pedal. The engine area and engine compartment are organized without complexity, and the clutch and accelerator pedal are smooth. Most users confirm that the engine noise is loud, especially when the windows are open. However, when the windows are closed, the noise is quiet.

One of the most significant complaints about the car is the power steering. Most complained about the steering wheel being heavy and not easy to operate, which can be described as half-power, not full-power.

The car is 4.290 meters long, 1.740 meters wide, and 1.525 meters high. The Renault Logan features a spacious trunk that holds approximately 510 liters. The interior is comfortable and can comfortably accommodate five passengers. There is also plenty of space in the rear seats, which are comfortable for rear passengers and the front passenger, compared to cars like the Verna or Lanos.

The car also has powerful air conditioning and good cabin insulation. It also features a good-sounding cassette player and a trip computer. One problem with the car is that the front seats move forward and backward with the brakes. This is a common complaint about the unstable front seats, but some believe this is an idea implemented to absorb shocks in accidents.

- The car's maintenance is easy due to the organization of the engine compartment, which makes it easy for any specialist to repair it, as everything is clearly visible in the engine compartment.

- There is a problem with the high price of spare parts compared to competing cars. Spare parts are more expensive than those of the Lanos, Verna, and other cars that compete with the Logan.

- The car's spare parts are durable.

- The car is distinguished by its availability of spare parts, which are currently well-available due to the car's widespread use in Egypt, and are available both inside and outside the dealership.

The car handles bumps easily, as it is high off the ground and has good suspension that doesn't require constant repair. The car is also stable on the ground and at speeds, appropriately. It's neither overly so, like high-priced cars, nor weak, like some cars known for their instability. However, its stability is appropriate for its price, as it is not suitable for strong, violent maneuvers, as the rear suspension relies on a single beam, in addition to the high center of gravity, which makes the rear part very unstable when stuck at high speeds.

There are no general complaints about defects in the car's chassis or suspension, or that it is unstable on the road. However, complaints extend to other various matters, while some praise the car's suspension and suspension for its smoothness and good handling on the roads, especially when traveling, given that the car was primarily designed to handle the roads of developing countries.

Among the common faults of the car is the presence of heat under the gas pedal, which is dealt with at maintenance and the dealership, and there is a great deal of controversy regarding it between those who see it as good and those who see it as bad, but in the end, it is one of the cars that achieves good sales as new cars, and therefore it has a good presence in the used market, and there is a demand for it in the market and it is also offered for sale, and its resale price is appropriate.

The car received a 3-star rating in the Euro NCAP safety tests. Safety features include:

Airbag for the driver

Front and side airbags in the 2008 upgraded version

ABS brakes

EBD brakes

Easy braking, and its brakes are better than those of competing cars

Strong front bumper

Sturdy body

The manual version lacks a stabilizer bar, which is a bar mounted in the front suspension at the arch and in the rear suspension. It maintains the stability and balance of the car on turns and curves and prevents it from rolling over.
