Renault has finally made the crossover!
Okay, first, let the strange name just to dissect it.’Kad’ is inspired by the word ‘quad’, what are the off-road aspirations should be underlined, and Jar comes from the French ‘jaillir’, which for the sudden emergence of something. And therefore is called the crossover, for the most part, undoubtedly, with front-wheel drive is provided as is and never a dirt road will see, Kadjar.
The Kadjar is built as a crossover in the C-segment, which the French finally an answer to the Qashqai of concerngenoot Nissan. And yes, they share both the (modular) CMF-C/D platform. In addition we can fairly uninteresting Koleos now immediately forgotten. Kadjar it is.
The Kadjar has a length of 4,45 m, a width of 1,84 meters and he is 1.6 metres high. The ground clearance of this French stadsjunglebedwinger is 19 inches. About the available engines are still no decisions made, but expect a wide range of TCe engines with three or four cylinders with 1.5 or 1.6 liters. Further, the Kadjar will be supplied with two – or four-wheel drive with three modes: Auto, LOCK and 2WD.
With the styling, from Laurens van den Acker, allows Renault to see that the Kadjar clearly the bigger brother of the Captur is. We see smooth lines, C-shape LED daytime running lights, 19-inch wheels, the distinctive fold in the sides, and aluminum roof rails. Not a bad face.
Prices we have not yet. It is known that the Kadjar in June in the Dutch showroom.
