Renault Fluence Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2012–2017) — First Generation Restyling
The restyled first-generation Renault Fluence keeps its roomy sedan shape while sharpening the details. Here is what the available engines, transmissions and equipment packages actually mean for you in everyday driving.
Renault Fluence engine choices cover different driving habits. The 2.0 MT joins a gasoline unit to a manual gearbox for direct control, the 1.6 CVT uses a variable transmission that smooths stop-and-go traffic, and the 1.5 EDC diesel pairs with a robotic gearbox aimed at economy. Each drives the front wheels.
Renault Fluence trim levels sit on top of a technical version rather than replacing it. The 1.6 CVT, for instance, was offered as Limited Edition and Expression: the same powertrain, different equipment. Richer trims usually bring extra comfort and convenience features, so always check the individual car's specification list.
