The Renault Latitude is an executive-class automobile manufactured by the French carmaker Renault. It was unveiled in June 2010 and made its first appearance at the Moscow International Automobile Salon in August 2010. The Latitude functioned as Renault's premier model until it was succeeded by the Renault Talisman in 2016.
Design
The Latitude is a four-door sedan constructed on the Renault–Nissan D platform. It was developed as the third generation (L43) of the Renault Samsung SM5. In 2015, the model underwent a facelift that introduced an updated rear design.
Marketing
Replacing the Renault Vel Satis, which ceased production in August 2009, the Latitude entered markets in Asia, Australia, and Eastern Europe toward the end of 2010. In Mexico, it was marketed under the name Renault Safrane beginning in early 2011.
The European version, offering various engine choices and equipment levels, was showcased at the 2010 Paris Motor Show, with sales commencing in early 2011, though it was not released in the United Kingdom.
Latitude models produced by Renault Samsung Motors and branded as Renault are used as taxis in Singapore and Macau.
In 2015, the Latitude was replaced by the Renault Talisman, which also took over from the Laguna, thereby streamlining Renault's D-segment sedan lineup.
