New Samsung SM5 could be 2013 Renault Safrane

Renault Samsung Motors have revealed the new 2013 Samsung SM5. The SM5, better known as the Renault Safrane in the UAE, receives a minor facelift on the latest generation model which has been around since 2010.

The new SM5 sees it jump on the LED craze and added LED daytime running headlights and LED taillights. The front bumper has been restyled and it also gets some new design alloy wheels. Chrome has been added around the fog lamps and window frames, as well as the front grille.

The engines are still the same with the basic model getting the 2.0-litre 4 cylinder motor which produces 140 hp. Other engine options are probably the two V6 engines which are offered in the GCC in the current models, the 2.5-litre and 3.5-litre which produces 180 hp and 240 hp respectively.
