Renault has built its first SUV
Why so long to Renault produced a crossover now, no one will say. Back in the late 90ies was understandable that small jeep and enjoy will enjoy a very good demand in the world, including in Europe. But better late than never - in Geneva on the French version of the car revealed a serial entitled Koleos. French design of this machine, but all technical beguiling Japanese (for those who forgot, it is recalled that Renault and Nissan are in the alliance). To do the same this machine will be in South Korea at the Samsung plant yield (the company owned by Renault).
Renault Koleos not very big car. On their dimensions, it is larger than Nissan Qashqai. But while French SUV smaller vehicles such as the Nissan X-Trail and Toyota RAV4 (by the way, it is the platform of Nissan X-Trail and built Koleos).
The French assure that Koleos can ride not only on asphalt. Alleged, it will be strong and off - the car will receive a system "intellectual" full of drive and ground clearance of 206 mm. Engines will be few. The basic unit will become 2.0 - 2.0 liter diesel volume liters, which delivers 150 horsepower or 175 hp depending on the modification. But for lovers of speed Renault will offer volume 2.5 liter engine (170 hp), which produces Nissan.
