French-brand Renault is riding high on its brand, Safrane, which was launched worldwide last year.

The carmaker enjoys an undisputed presence in the global automotive industry and is available in 118 countries across the globe, employing close to 100,000 people worldwide.

Just over a decade ago, Renault struck an alliance with Nissan Motors Limited to establish a powerful automotive group. The alliance has successfully completed ten years of operation and is now the third largest automaker in the world.

Safrane is the beneficiary of this Renault-Nissan alliance.

A spokesperson from Y K Almoayyed said: "Prior to its launch, Safrane has been extensively tested for the climatic and driving conditions of the Middle East and Safrane has passed the test with flying colours."

Safrane is available in three variants - PE, SE and LE. While the PE comes with a 2 litre engine, the SE and LE sport the 2.3 litre V6 engine.

Safrane offers a number of features which come as standard. These include six airbags, antilock braking system (ABS), electronic brake distribution (EBD), and emergency brake assist (BA), 16" alloy wheels and keyless entry with smart card system.

Other important features available in the higher grades include rear parking sensors, six CD changer with seven speakers, sunroof, leather seats, power driver seat and electric mirrors.

Like all Renault cars, Safrane comes with three years, 100,000 km warranty.
