Bold and beautiful, the new Renault Kadjar SUV crossover is the embodiment of the brand\u2019s entire DNA and set to make its mark on one of South Africa\u2019s most hotly contested vehicle categories.<\/p>\n
The new Kadjar expands Renault\u2019s presence in this segment and follows the successful launch of the Renault Captur in May last year.<\/p>\n
Priced from just R359 900, it is the consummate SUV crossover package. It is the result of the integration of three vehicle categories: capable SUV, dynamic hatch and versatile sportswagon.<\/p>\n
The aggressive grille is complemented by a sleek yet muscular build which underscores the fact that this is a vehicle geared for action and adventure. Athletic, dynamic and sturdy by design, its length, width, wheelbase and ground clearance dimensions exceed those of comparable competitor models making it a serious contender in SA\u2019s SUV stakes.<\/p>\n
The line-up comprises three models, all powered by forced induction turbo engines. At the top end of the range is the turbo diesel-powered Dynamique 96 kW 1.6 dCi (320 Nm) 4×4, followed by the turbo petrol-powered Dynamique 96 kW (205 Nm) and entry-level Expression variants.<\/p>\n
These new-generation, low-inertia turbo engines boast efficient and advanced technologies derived from Renault\u2019s Formula 1 expertise affording the New Renault Kadjar significantly lower fuel consumption and CO\u00b2 emissions.<\/p>\n
Renault continues to emphasise its new brand identity and its hallmark diamond-shaped centrepiece dominates the new crossover\u2019s front grille. The Kadjar\u2019s innovative new lighting signature, a distinctive C-shaped LEDs on its daytime running lights, double as a bold visual statement and a safety feature. The full LED headlights on the Dynamique variants are 20% more powerful than conventional halogen lamps. The generous and well-appointed cabin makes driving on or off the road a comfortable and luxurious experience. <\/p>\n
A high-tech touchscreen infotainment system, automatic climate control (Dynamique) and intuitive digital instrument cluster make motoring even more enjoyable and effortless.<\/p>\n
To make motoring easier and more fluid, high-tech advanced driver assistance systems, including self-parking with blind spot detection and 360\u00b0 park distance control with rear camera are available as an option (Dynamique).<\/p>\n
Heralded as a stylish crossover, the UK media in particular has praised the Kadjar for its \u201coverall (value-for-money) package, driving dynamics, ride, efficiency, fuel economy and space.\u201d In November 2015 it was named Best Crossover at the Next Green Car Awards (UK) while in January 2016 it scooped top honours in the \u201cSmall SUV Class\u201d in contracthireandleasing.com\u2019s 2015 Car of the Year Awards (UK).<\/p>\n
The new Renault Kadjar comes to the South African market only a year after its international reveal at the Geneva Motor Show in 2015.<\/p>\n
As is the case across Renault\u2019s entire product range, the all-new Kadjar line-up comes standard with a 5-year\/150 000 km mechanical warranty and a 6-year anti-corrosion warranty. In addition the entire Kadjar range comes standard with a 5-year\/90 000 km service plan. Services take place at 15 000 km intervals.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
