Renault Grand Koleos Just Raised the Bar in the SUV Game
The Renault Grand Koleos has arrived in the KSA. It is a mid-size SUV that combines modern technology and practical performance. If you have been following Renault’s lineup, you will notice that this model is taking a step forward regarding refinement and features.
Performance
Under the hood, the Renault Grand Koleos offers two choices. The first is a turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol engine producing 235 hp and 350 Nm of torque. It comes paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and AWD. This setup should be well-suited for city driving and longer trips.
The second option is a hybrid powertrain. It uses a 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine combined with two electric motors. With a combined output of 245 hp, this option balances performance with better fuel efficiency. Both versions include driving modes like Eco, Comfort, and Sport.
These modes help optimise the car’s behaviour according to your needs.
Interior and Technology
The Renault Grand Koleos has a spacious and modern cabin. It has three 12.3-inch digital displays: one for the driver, one for the infotainment system, and a third for the front passenger. A standout feature is the 25.6-inch augmented reality head-up display that projects information onto the windshield.
It helps you keep your eyes on the road while accessing important details. The materials inside are premium, with leather upholstery and soft-touch surfaces. Comfort features include tri-zone climate control and a panoramic sunroof.
The sound system is a 10-speaker Bose setup, which should provide good audio quality for music or calls.
Safety Features
Safety is a priority with the Renault Grand Koleos. It offers driver assistance features like adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, and a 360-degree camera system. The vehicle supports level two autonomous driving capabilities. This means it can assist with highway driving, but still requires driver attention.
Price and Availability in the UAE
Renault plans to launch the Grand Koleos in the UAE market around mid-2026. Pricing is expected to start near AED 160,000. Considering the equipment and technology, this price aligns with competitors in the segment.
Conclusion
The Renault Grand Koleos provides a solid option for those looking for a comfortable and tech-friendly mid-size SUV. It balances performance, efficiency, and features without going over the top. The Grand Koleos is worth a closer look if you are considering a new SUV for the UAE roads.
