Question 1

Which Renault models were sold as estates in Switzerland?

Accepted Answer

The Clio Grandtour on the third and fourth Clio, the Mégane Grandtour across its generations, the Laguna Grandtour and the Talisman Grandtour, built from 2016 to 2022. The Talisman is the largest, the Clio the smallest.

Question 2

Is there a hybrid Renault estate?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Mégane Grandtour E-Tech, a 160 hp plug-in hybrid sold from 2020. It pairs a 1.6 petrol engine with two electric motors and can cover short commutes on electricity alone.

Question 3

Which engines are common in a used Renault estate?

Accepted Answer

The 1.5 dCi diesel powers many Clio and Mégane Grandtours, and larger dCi diesels the Laguna and Talisman. Petrol versions use TCe turbo engines, from the 0.9 three-cylinder in the Clio upwards.

Question 4

What should I check on a Renault estate with the 1.2 TCe engine?

Accepted Answer

The oil level and consumption: early 1.2 TCe engines from around 2012 to 2016 could burn oil, and Renault revised them. Service records showing the work done at a Renault garage are a good sign.
