OREANDA-NEWS. On July 17, sales of Renault Logan, Sandero and Sandero Stepway with a new five-speed gearbox robotic Easy'R started in Russia. "Robot" is available at the price of 20 thousand Rubles in conjunction with the engine 1.6 liters (82 HP). With 102 hp engine it is proposed a four-speed "automatic" gearbox. A five mechanic gearbox is still available as with 82 hp engine, so with a motor power of 102 hp.

From July 15th Renault offers Logan, Sandero and Sandero Stepway cars in Russia with new robotized transmission Easy'R, said “Za rulem”. It is supplemented with a function Hill Start Assist, which helps in moving on the hill: the car is fixed for a few seconds, during which time the driver has time to move safely foot from the brake pedal on the gas without fear of rolling back.

Easy'R has a special feature ECO that allows you to save fuel (up to 6.9 l / 100 km in the combined cycle, at the new Logan), and to decrease emissions of pollutants. When you activate this function, the program of the throttle and shift algorithm change: the highest transmissions are switched earlier, thereby by maintaining the lowest engine speed. In emergency situations, when you press the gas to the floor (mode kickdown) the power unit returns to normal mode.

Along with the "robot" on the new Renault Logan, Sandero and Sandero Stepway it is appeared a 4-speed automatic transmission, which was available previously only on the models of the previous generation.

We also recall that on July 9th sales of an updated Renault Duster began in Russia.
