Renault Koleos New,Reviews

The Renault Koleos New revived the Renault brand in the Chinese car market when it was imported into China last year, the Koleos is made in Korea via the Samsung-Renault partnership and exported to China, despite the cars imported status the price is on par with the locally made Nissan X-Trail with which theRenault shares its platform and engine.

Thanks to the efforts of Indian Autos Blog, we can share with you the shape of the Koleos facelift. It’s probably just an elaborate marketing ploy, but the Indian publication reports that Renault revealed images of the vehicle by mistake. Since Renault also sells a rebadged version of the Dacia Duster, it needed to provide it’s own product with a more premium look for the sake of market differentiation.

The shape is too rounded for the Koleos to be taken seriously.

Interior images are yet to be revealed, although we expect some small design tweaks to refresh the cabin.

The Australian line-up currently offers customers plenty of choice, with petrol and diesel engines, front- and all-wheel drive models, and six-speed manual, six-speed automatic and continuously variable transmission options.

The first-generation Renault Koleos New was launched in Australia in September 2008 and was upgraded in May 2010.
