From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Renault has shown the first pictures of its handsome new large Latitude saloon, a sister model to the Renault Samsung SM5 sold in Korea. It will be introduced at the Moscow Motor Show in August and the European version will be shown at the Paris Mondial d'Automobile in October.
The main initial markets for the car will be Russia, Turkey, Australia and Mexico, as well as the Gulf, Africa and Asia. So far, Renault has not decided whether to sell the Latitude in the UK. The new car appears to be a more mainstream "international" product than previous big Renaults like the distinctively French Vel Satis, a shift that reflects Renault's own changing character and expanding global links, such as its far-reaching alliance with Nissan.
Full specifications, including engine options, will be released when the Latitude is shown in Paris.
