Renault Koleos 2015-2016 - test drive video, reviews.

The French chose Argentina as the place for the debut of the Koleos crossover of the 2014 model year, where, as part of the VI international auto show held in Buenos Aires, a slightly updated car was presented. The current restyling has already become the second in just a five-year history of the model, but during it the car came as close as possible to the new corporate style, which this year has already been successfully implemented on other novelties of the French automaker.

The fate of Renault Koleos in Russia is very ambiguous and to some extent even sad. If, for example, the sale of one of the main Nissan competitors X-Trail (built on the same platform) is constantly going uphill, numbering almost three tens of thousands of cars a year, while Koleos barely exceeds 1,500 copies sold. The result, to be honest, is more than depressing. The last restyling (performed in 2011) did not increase the popularity of the French crossover. Now the “model of 2014” should enter our market, which means that there is a good reason to take another look at the not entirely successful crossover and try to understand if the refreshed Frenchman has a chance to win the hearts of Russian motorists.

The main goal of the current restyling is the desire of the manufacturer to bring appearance of all its vehicles under the common denominator of the updated corporate identity, developed by renowned car designer Lawrence Van den Acker. At the same time, nothing global happened to Koleos: the radiator grille was replaced on the crossover, which became larger and more aggressive, slightly trimmed front bumper, added a new Ebony Brown color scheme, and also prepared chrome side trims and a fresh dynamic design rims For top trim levels. It will be very difficult to see anything else new in its exterior, since the overall design concept has remained intact, and the dimensions have not changed at all: 4520 mm long, 1855 mm wide and 1710 mm high with a 2690 mm wheelbase. Clearance Russian version will remain at the level of 206 mm for the "gasoline modification" and 188 mm - ground clearance for the "diesel", while in other markets the landing of the crossover will be slightly lower.

Inside the five-seat crossover, no flashy transformations have taken place. It didn’t make much sense to change the quite decent ergonomics of the front panel and the very convenient layout of the cabin itself (with its numerous pockets and niches for storing small things), and the French acted quite deliberately, only slightly refreshing the interior with new more quality materials finishes. IN expensive trim levels the crossover can be equipped with a panoramic sunroof with a glazing area of ​​0.75 m2, the Easy Estate system, which allows you to fold back row seats with one hand.

As for the trunk, its original volume of 450 liters has remained unchanged, the maximum capacity is 1380 liters, and the lower sash tailgate now able to withstand a little more than 200 kg of load.

Specifications. Under the hood of the updated "Koleos" no changes have occurred, even "cosmetic". The engine range remains the same, the list of available gearboxes has also not changed:

• The main in our market will remain a four-cylinder gasoline power unit with a total displacement of 2.5 liters (2488 cm³). The motor meets the requirements of the Euro-4 environmental standard, is equipped with a multi-point fuel injection system, is equipped with a 16-valve timing, willingly "eats" AI-95 gasoline and is able to develop a decent 171 hp. maximum power. At the same time, the peak torque of this power unit rests on the mark of 226 Nm, allowing you to accelerate the crossover to almost 200 km / h, spending about 9.3 seconds on the starting spurt from 0 to 100 km / h. The petrol engine is equipped with either a 6-speed "mechanics" or stepless CVT variator, slightly worsening dynamic characteristics car (starting acceleration time is reduced to 10.3 seconds). As for the average fuel consumption, with any gearbox, the gasoline unit consumes about 9.6 liters per 100 kilometers.
• For lovers diesel versions crossovers, Renault developers will offer the same 2.0-liter four-cylinder power unit with a turbocharger. With 1995 cm³ of working volume and 16 valves, the diesel engine produces about 173 hp. capacity, while keeping within the framework of the requirements of the environmental standard Euro-5. The maximum torque of the diesel is 360 Nm, which makes it possible to accelerate the crossover to 100 km / h, spending no more than 11.9 seconds on the starting jerk. The diesel power plant is equipped with only a 6-speed "automatic", and its average consumption fuel does not exceed 7.1 liters.

The French did not prepare any changes in the chassis either. But now this crossover will be available only in all-wheel drive (All-mode 4 × 4-i) version (previously there was a front-wheel drive version). Four-wheel drive includes three modes of operation: Auto, Lock and 2WD. In the "Auto" mode, the intelligent control unit automatically distributes torque between the wheels depending on the degree of their adhesion to the road. In the "Lock" mode, the torque is distributed between the front and rear axles in a ratio of 50:50, but in the “2WD” mode, only the front axle remains connected, which saves fuel.

Of course, restyling could not be limited to only cosmetic improvements to the exterior and interior. Something the French had to try to surprise the world and get potential customers to take a closer look at the Renault Koleos. The updated crossover first of all acquired a new R-Link multimedia system with a seven-inch touch screen, offering a wider range of functions and supporting voice control in 26 languages. In addition, the novelty will receive new system Blind Spot Warning in charge of control dead zones. The French combined the rear-view camera with parking sensors, and the picture with the necessary markings and tips is displayed on the R-Link system display, significantly facilitating the life of the driver.

In 2016, the French company Renault plans to release the second generation of the popular domestic market crossover Koleos.

This model has good technical characteristics, pleasant appearance and enough low prices.

Appearance

The main goal set by the French manufacturer was to create a new model with minimal spending.

As a result appearance The second generation Renault Koleos is not much different from the previous version.

At the front of the car, a new radiator screen, which he inherited from the Paris prototype. The bumper also took on a different shape, which became smoother and less pronounced.

In some ways, the crossover resembles the old Chinese counterparts, which are supplied only to Asian markets.

The head optics has also changed, which has become a match for the rest of the elements of the front of the body.

In general, the crossover looks a bit "hilly" in comparison with its previous version.

Perhaps, in this way, the French manufacturer wanted to give “masculinity” to the new model. But definitely visually it seems much higher.

On the side of the body, you can find chrome trim that borders the lower threshold of the doors.

In the rest, everything here remained unchanged. The same can be said about the Koleos stern.

It retained the outlines of the elements that were present in the first generation car: an unusual headlight shape, large-sized glass partially covered by a rear wing, the almost complete absence of a bumper and a smooth door luggage compartment divided into several parts.

The dimensions of the new Keno Koleos are 4520x1690x1885 mm. The ground clearance of the crossover is 206 mm, which is a worthy indicator of the model, especially in Russian conditions.

In turn, he is able to enter the slope at a maximum angle of 27 degrees, and can move out at an angle of 31 degrees.

Interior

In the cabin, the changes mainly affected the increase in the level of comfort of the crossover.

This affected the finishing material, which, according to users, has become more pleasant and of high quality.

In particular, it also appeared in places where small things such as keys and the like are stored, thanks to which there is no longer that unpleasant rattling that accompanied the previous model in motion.

It is worth noting separately front row armchairs. In Koleos of the 2016 sample, they are located much higher.

This simultaneously increases the visibility of the car and expands the free space for rear passengers. In addition, the backs of the sofa can be adjusted in inclination.

Dashboard retained its shape, and is a set of three wells, two of which are reserved for the tachometer and speedometer. Below the last one is a small screen. on-board computer.

The center console has a display, as if "sewn" into the torpedo. He is part of a new multimedia system R-Link, which allows you to configure numerous on-board instruments to the needs of the car owner.

This is quite convenient, because, having once spent some time, the driver can, without hesitation, turn on suitable radio stations with one touch of his finger or mark a standard route of movement on the navigation map. In addition, there is support for data transfer via Bluetooth.

The number of standard and additional systems crossover security.

In addition, a climate control system appeared, "serving" two zones.

One more interesting feature updated Koleos is the interaction of on-board electronics and parking brake: The driver can move away without releasing this brake. This will be monitored by the built-in hardware.

Specifications

The updated Renault Koleos comes with two types of engines. The first one is 2.5 liters running on gasoline fuel. It is capable of developing up to 171 hp. power.

two liter diesel unit produces up to 173 hp Together with them, a 6-speed “mechanics” and “automatic” or a stepless variator are installed on the crossover.

Contrary to the expectations of the vast majority of motorists, the novelty has retained its former, not the most successful and euphonious name. However, with the exception of the name, the second generation Koleos has almost completely changed. The French flagship has surpassed the predecessor model in all respects.

But, perhaps, the main advantage of an SUV lies in its appearance. The new Renault Koleos is promised for serial production in Europe in the second half of this year, but in Russia the car will appear no earlier than the beginning of 2017. The price of the new Koleos 2016 has not yet been announced.
