Product Overview

Renault Koleos 2 (chassis code HC) is a mid-size crossover in production from 2016 to 2019, whereupon it received a facelift. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.6 to 2.5 liters.

Compared to the Mk1 Koleos, the Mk2 has a much more coherent exterior design. It still uses a similar range of engines as well as a CVT, though it looks and feels much more upscale.

Those who drive offroad, for work or leisure, need to think twice before pulling the trigger: the Renault Koleos II is hardly the "offroader" that Renault would like you to think.

Reviewer score 58% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autoexpress have found:

The Koleos is a 2.0-litre diesel model in Dynamique S Nav trim. It features 18-inch alloy wheels, a panoramic sunroof, climate control, quick-folding rear seats and Renault's latest R-Link 2 infotainment system. The seven-inch touchscreen display looks good in the dashboard, but it's not as easy to use as I'd like.

Pros

Cheap to run
Good fuel economy
Good standard equipment

Cons

Too big and heavy
No automatic gearbox

Reviewers from carmagazine have found:

The Koleos will be available with a choice of three powertrains featuring two diesel engines; a 128bhp 1.6 litre unit married to a 6-speed manual transmission and front-wheel drive. A more powerful, 175bhp 2.0-litre unit with all- wheel drive and a choice. of six-speed manuals or Renault's seven-speed X-Tronic CVT automatic transmissions. The car is equipped with the fundamentally soft undercarriage appropriate to a large family cruiser. Renault may well be the first manufacturer to actually deliver on the promise of a Continuously Variable Transmission.

Pros

Comfortable ride
Comfortable undercarriage

Cons

Fiddly infotainment system
Not the most practical
