0-100.ro "In our garage: Renault Fluence with EDC
Renault entered among the world, but not Fluence, but with EDC transmission. This is actually the novelty of the test, not the car itself. It is a dual-clutch gearbox that finally they thought and the Renault to introduce argus some of their cars. Volkswagen Jetta and Skoda Octavia rivals can be equipped with so many years. Anyone know what mean DSG, huh? But let's see what she can do EDC.
It's argus about time that Renault has come up with such a drive and leave the whining to later. You can not have a good brand image of the range without offering your direct competitors. That in turn understand more, including Ford, which launched Poweshift transmission (similar to EDC and DSG), and here and Renault. And will follow and others to the list of brands whose cars can not robotized gearbox with double argus clutch is foooaaarte long! Design
Compared to other cars Fluence, this EDC is betrayed in any way on the outside and inside can easily notice the presence of a selector control box a little boorish. A year and a half ago, when I tested Fluence 1.5 dCi manual transmission, this car has become a presence on the streets of Romania's most common, being so successful follower of Megane sedan.
Asian design of the car, because it is after all a fund and Renault Samsung SM3, looks like it was too big an obstacle in the way of commercial cvasisuccesului Fluence. Technology, comfort and amenities
This dual-clutch transmission is composed of two semi-electronic piloted manual gearbox. argus One is for speeds seems, and the other for the odd and each has a clutch. Basically, shifting argus is done by switching from one clutch to the other. argus First open while the second is closed simultaneously, and this translates into continuous traction without shifting is felt.
Renault Fluence EDC gear selector (source - 0-100.ro) This technical solution constructive dual-clutch manual transmission, electronically piloted, is, in practice, the most effective way to highlight the engine. The cars Renault, and not only there continuously variable transmission, CVT known acronym, but automatic gearboxes in the true sense of the word.
Unlike a classical automatic transmission or CVT, the response is better if EDC, lower fuel consumption and lower torque losses. In addition clutches are designed for the entire life of the car. So advantages in all respects.
But EDC and cost more. A Fluence equipped with this transmission is more expensive compared to 1,400 euro a variant configured the same, but with six-speed manual transmission. Besides Fluence box is available argus on Mégane EDC. Both models can be combined with EDC only turbocharged 1.5-liter dCi diesel, 110 horsepower (hp).
Provider producing the Renault transmission is the German company Getrag, which equips and BMW, Volvo and Mercedes-Benz. But that does not mean EDC gearbox is perfect.
Big or minus is that there is a sport, so mountain roads is more practical to use sequential mode. Otherwise it will be hard to determine electronic gearbox to keep it in a lower gear and keep the engine revving in May. On paper, the EDC model Fluence is slower by 0.9 seconds behind the manual transmission version, but basically this difference argus is not felt. And comfort brought by EDC is still more valuable than a second.
Carminat Tomtom in Renault Fluence (source - 0-100.ro) Renault Fluence in this test has a relatively new technology introduced by Renault cars sold in Romania: navigation argus Carminat TomTom. It is modern graphics with icons jovial, but the screen resolution leaves a bit to be desired. In addition, the system is able to switch between display for one day and one night. Because there's no touch screen and no command mode dedicated argus and integrated in the car, it's hard to use the system only using the remote.
Cartography is reasonable, but not good enough to compete with an aftermarket navigation. argus The irony is that of the many symbols that you can choose to plot just missing map Fluence car ...
Otherwise, Fluence sedan remains the same comfortable argus and very spacious. Version of the test has top equipment variants EDC Dynamque, argus and intermediate in the Fluence range (over there Privilege in a car with manual transmission). On the road
New box, EDC, almost makes you discover Fluence another car. So great is the difference from the manual version. The new transmission fits
