context_page_description: The Renault Safrane was an executive car designed and built by the French manufacturer Renault from 1992 to 2000. Throughout its lifespan, it remained the most expensive and most luxurious Renault available, although its commercial success was limited, compared to some similar models. It was replaced by the Vel Satis, and to some extent, by the short lived two door Avantime.
  Since 2008, a new model, based directly on the Renault Samsung SM5 sedan, is also called Renault Safrane.
context_section_description: In August 2008, Renault revived the Safrane name for several markets in the Gulf States. Based directly on the second generation (DF) of Renault Samsung SM5 sedan, the car was manufactured by Renault Samsung in South Korea, and also presented in Mexico in February 2009.
  
  Renault sold the Renault Latitude in Europe, although not in the United Kingdom (due to decline of the traditional saloon market). This is a lengthened and widened version of the Laguna, platform with vastly similar engines. In Mexico and the states of the Persian Gulf (except Iran), the Latitude was sold as the Safrane.
