2008 Model
In 2008, Renault revived the Safrane name for several markets in the Gulf States.
Based directly on the second generation (A34R) of Renault Samsung SM5 sedan, the car was manufactured by Renault Samsung in South Korea, and also presented in Mexico in 2009.
Renault now sells the Renault Latitude in Europe. This is a lengthened and widened version of the Laguna platform with vastly similar engines planned. In Mexico and the Gulf States, the new Latitude is now sold as the Safrane.

Famous quotes containing the word model:
“The best way to teach a child restraint and generosity is to be a model of those qualities yourself. If your child sees that you want a particular item but refrain from buying it, either because it isn’t practical or because you can’t afford it, he will begin to understand restraint. Likewise, if you donate books or clothing to charity, take him with you to distribute the items to teach him about generosity.”
—Lawrence Balter (20th century)
