Second Gen Renault Koleos Seen In India, What’s The French Brand Up To?
The recently spied second gen Renault Koleos was unveiled about 6 years ago
The second gen Renault Koleos has been spied in India and the car did not have as much as a hint of camouflage wrapping on it.
Unveiled in April 2016, the second gen Koleos replaced the first model that went on sale in the Indian market in 2011. Suffice it to say the original did not fare well here.
As a result, the next-generation Koleos was not introduced here. So, what is it doing in the country? The assumption is that it is being used as a test bed to see how the new components the French brand has developed cope up.
Based on the CMF C/D platform, the recently spied second gen Renault Koleos comes with modern styling, LED lights, alloy wheels and space for 5 adults inside. The cabin comes replete with new age features.
When it was unveiled, the car got 2 petrol and an equal number of diesel engine options. There were 2 gearbox choices – a 6-speed manual and a CVT – and 4-wheel drive was also offered as an option.
