Renault Samsung has revealed some official photos of its new mid-size car, known as the Renault Samsung SM6, for its home market of Korea. The car, as you might guess, shares many components with the Renault Talisman. In fact, the Renault Samsung SM6 and Renault Talisman are the same car, and differ only in some details.
The Renault Samsung SM6 is basically built on the Talisman, and the main difference is the grill, which no longer has the Renault logo on it. The LED DRLs are also C-shaped and have an elongated bumper.

Since the platform is also shared with the Talisman, it has exactly the same dimensions of 4850/1870/1460 mm. With a wheelbase of 2810 mm, we can guarantee that passengers will not complain about legroom in the Renault Samsung SM6.
The shared design with the Renault Talisman continues inside the cabin, where the Renault Samsung SM6 uses the same interior as the latest Talisman. The centerpiece of the cabin is a portrait touchscreen on the dashboard, which controls most cabin functions such as infotainment, navigation, etc. The Renault Samsung SM6 is also equipped with a digital instrument panel with a customizable screen.
