Renault Ballito Offers You

Renault Ballito Offers You

Author: Tomas Yoko
Date: 2015-08-14
Of the three cars that Renault Ballito is offering you, I have driven and tested them all. This week I will explore the fresh and refined styling offered by the Renault Sandero.

Sporting the new design identity from Renault, the Sandero is also filled with the features and technology this giant of a motorcar manufacturer can muster.

Renault claim it is the safest car in its class, and with the long list of unique safety features, which are standard across the range. Topping the list are the Airbags, Emergency Brake Assist, which is coupled with ABS and EBD, the Electronic Stability Programme and so much more.

However the Sandero just keeps on giving with a long list of standard super-smart technologies including the very convenient multi-function fingertip radio controls on the steering wheel and the easiest to use Bluetooth connectivity I have experienced in this model segment.

However the real reason we buy a car is to get around and we really want to do this effectively as much as we want to do it efficiently. That is why Renault has equipped the Sandero with their turbo charged 66kW engine. The Sandero reaches top speed at 175 km per hour and will jump from naught to a hundred in just eleven point one seconds. This engine is a proven winner for Renault, partly because of its low-end torque of 135 Newton metres being available from as low as 2000 revs per minute.

Efficiency personified, the Sandero boasts consumption figures as low as 5,2 litres per hundred kilometres. Add to it Renault's industry-leading five-year or 150 000km warranty completed by a standard two-year or 30 000km service plan, and all that is left is for you to go and test drive it at Renault Ballito and then make it your own. Call them on 032 586 3881 for more info or pop in at 8 Moffat Drive Ballito.
