This is the all-new Renault Koleos, a name you might remember from when the French carmaker tried its hand at SUVs before they became truly fashionable. That one was pulled from sale in the UK back in 2010 due to slow sales (and the fact it was a bit rubbish).New Renault Koleos majors on passenger space and isn’t a bad drive either It seems to be second-time lucky for the Koleos: with its smaller siblings – the Captur and Kadjar – both performing well, Renault hopes that this larger model further boost its fortunes.
Pros Passenger space, standard equipment, driving refinement
Cons Only offered as a five-seater, no auto for smaller engine
The Koleos is stylish and well equipped, but it’s not as spacious or as well made as some of its rivals.
Pros Well equipped Nicely finished inside Lots of safety kit
Cons Lumpy ride No seven-seat option Limited boot space
