It was at the beginning of the year when Volkswagen ended production of the Passat sedan in Europe and now Renault is following suit with its sedan. While the Wolfsburg peeps are still making the wagon, the French have discontinued the long-roof version as well. In other words, the Talisman is entirely dead. The writing had been on the wall for some time as the company with the diamond logo announced plans to drop the midsize car in December 2021.
Renault stopped making the Talisman at the end of February but that doesn’t mean sedans are no longer available in its portfolio. In select countries, you can still get the compact Megane Sedan as well as the smaller Taliant, a rebadged version of the Dacia Logan. Having axed the Clio Estate when the supermini switched to the fifth generation in 2019, it means Renault's only remaining wagon is the Megane Estate.
