Where the RenaultSport visual treatment fails, a coupé shape can work wonders. Just ask the new Renault Talisman sedan, which paid a visit to the plastic surgeon and went under the pixel knife, ending up with two doors less.
Just like a wannabe diva asking for help from a plastician, Renault's rival for the Volkswagen Passat is still trying to find itself, after experiencing mixed reaction from the public regarding the styling cues it wears on the outside.
Of course, pixel manipulators are happy to jump in and give a helping hand, with decent propositions.
But Theophilus Chin dropped these two renderings, showing the Talisman in two-door configuration and we can't help but add: now we're talking! Unlucky for Laguna fans, Renault will not replace the coupé version of the Laguna, which means we're looking at a unicorn called Talisman coupé.
As imaginary as it is, we think this is the best interpretation so far on the Talisman. Maybe it's because the previous one were more soft and shy in terms of exterior design, or perhaps the coupé-shaped outer shell looks like the best suit the Talisman could ever wear.
Since we wouldn't fit a diesel engine under this coupé's hood, the only attractive option remains the 1.6-liter TCe turbocharged petrol with 200 horsepower or even the 150 horsepower derivative of the same engine, for those looking for a comely face and a sleek design instead of lots of power.
Forget about cargo space and practicality for this one, but if it's those features you're interested in, do check out these renderings of a potential Talisman Grandtour that would replace the Laguna Estate.
