It’s a big challenge for a manufacturer to build a station wagon version for a successful sedan and make it look good.
The Talisman Estate has the same exterior dimensions as the sedan. With a 4.86 m length (15.9 ft), a 1.87 m width (6.1 ft) and a 1.46 m (4.6 ft) height, the wagon version for the luxury Renault sedan aims to be a good family transporter.

On the outside, the new headlights are remarkable. The full range of the Talisman comes with full LED lights. Optionally, it can be equipped with LED MATRIX technology and dynamic LED turning signals. The new system allows good visibility on the road, lightning up to 220 m away, versus 175 m on the previous LED system. Also, there are new 17”, 18” and 19” alloy-wheels available.

Inside the cabin, the Talisman Estate offers a trunk of 573 liters (20.73 cu. ft), with the rear seats up and can be extended up to 1700 liters (60 cu. ft) with the rear seats folded. With seats down, the loading space is about 2 meters long (6.5 ft).

The same engines and gearboxes installed on the sedan version can also be ordered on the estate version of the Talisman. Both variants can be equipped with adaptive suspension and all-wheel-steering system.

Renault introduced the Talisman Estate in 2016 on the large station wagon segment market.
After the launch of the sedan in 2015, the new version is proposed for families who want more luxury from their family mover. With interior space of up to 1700 liters (60 cu. ft) with the rear seats folded and a 2.05 m (6.5 ft) long loading space, the Talisman station wagon may be more useful for those who want to go on long trips and have half their closet with them.

Inside, connectivity is the new trend, and Renault followed through. Like the sedan version, the estate offers the R-Link 2 connected multimedia tablet, available either as a 7” landscape format or an 8.7” portrait. The system comprises the infotainment unit with vehicle settings, Tom-tom navigation, climate controls, audio settings, and telephony connection. It supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The tablet can be accessed via the rotating knob on the center console, steering wheel buttons or via a touch-screen.

For the engine compartment, the Talisman Estate was equipped with various units in 4 cylinders only, turbodiesel or gasoline. For some markets, Renault also offered LPG versions. The power ranges between 110 hp for the 1.6 dCi turbodiesel unit and goes up to the 1.8 TCe with 200 hp. Transmissions offered are either 6-speed manuals or a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox.
