    Pretty sure the Latitude is a rebadged Samsung. No relationship with the Laguna III AFAIK. That's without resorting to Wikipedia.

    As pointed out earlier it's a Samsung, SM5 to be exact and no that's not from wiki. There is one driv8ng around Nenagh regularly which is badged a Safrane. They are sold in Mexico and the UAE. You're right though, they've no relation to the laguna. Off hand I can't remember the Nissan they are badged as but I'd hazard a guess and say an Ultima or Maxima which are the same size.

    Do you honestly believe that Samsung developed cars on their own.

    The SM5 is a Laguna 3 with a new nose.

    There is far more different than a new nose.

    Yes. They build ships, submarines, electronics, tanks. Why not cars? They were developing cars before Renault stepped in albeit they never really got off the ground. Not a rebadged Laguna III.

    The Samsung SM5 is based in the Nissan Teana which is based on the Renault Laguna 3

    Samsung Heavy Industries are a separate company. I deleted my post to avoid you trying to claim they are the same company as Renault Samsung.

    The Samsung SM 5 is based on the Nissan Teana which is based on the Renault Laguna 3.

    To be fair they platform share. That's where the similarities end. Its utterly unidentifiable as a Laguna relation from its styling and its overall size.
