It’s amazing that the previous-generation Renault Koleos ran for almost a decade with only minor changes. In the fast-paced crossover segment, that’s an eternity.

  1. Made in Korea. Great!

  2. Finally…I was waiting for a write up on this vehicle. Looking forward to the full review and hope it comes out real soon!

  3. Great to see Renault coming back into the market with some rather good looking cars with styling on par with some luxury brands. Even the Talisman looks very classy. Some pricing info would’ve been nice though.

  4. Is the engine same of xtrail and koleos?

  5. It is good budget SUV with charming interior and exterior with futuristic technology.
