Renault backs up its quality commitment

25th January 2008 Print
Renault Espace Renault set the benchmark for the large MPV sector 23 years ago when it launched the Espace to much acclaim. Espace continues to be the most modern, stylish and practical large MPV available. Espace is the perfect family car combining a luxurious interior and value-for-money price tag, plus with its new warranty terms, total peace of mind.

Quality is Renault’s number one commitment both in terms of its products and service, and its ambitious plans laid out in the three-year plan for the company – Renault Commitment 2009 – are bearing fruit.

Renault is so confident in the quality of its products that all Espace registered from 1st January 2008 will benefit from a 100,000 miles/three-year warranty. Espace is the fourth model in Renault’s line-up to benefit from the 100,000 miles/ three-year warranty, with New Laguna and Trafic and Master (panel vans, base vehicles and Commercial Passenger Vehicles) also offered with Renault’s extended warranty terms.

Espace shows it is still the large MPV to beat with some key rivals unable to match its new warranty period. Ford’s Galaxy and S-Max, the Volkswagen Sharan, Peugeot 807, Chrysler Voyager and Citroen C8 all offer a 60,000 mile/three-year warranty.
