David Berthon's Motor TorqueThe medium SUV segment is the fastest growing sector in the car market so the arrival of thesecond generation Renault Koleos this week is timely – over 9,000 of the first series were soldhere and this much improved second generation Koleos is a vastly improved model – thelatest Renault Koleos is 152mm longer, sitting on a 15 mm longer wheelbase – this answerscriticism on the first series of poor rear seat legroom – now very roomy with excellent spacefor five passengers. The design is French but now built in Korea so the quality is also better onthis model – three models, all powered by a 2.5-litre naturally-aspirated four-cylindermatched to a continuously variable automatic. The Koleos Life in 4 x 2 starts at 29,990, theKoleos Zen in two and 4 x 4 from 33,990 and the 4 x 4 only Koleos Intens starts at 43,490. Withlocal suspension tune the ride comfort on poor surfaces is excellent.I’m David BerthonRenault Koleos
