The Renault Kadjar is one of the best SUVs on the market, but the 4×4 variant is overkill in our opinion: it costs 2.200 euros more than the front-wheel drive version and is less agile in corners due to the heavy weight.
Last year - during our first road test Renault Cajar – we especially appreciated the quality SUV French made on the same floor as Nissan Qashqai.
This time we tested again the option dCi 130 HP but combined with 4 × 4 all wheel drive and richer setup Hypnotic... A particularly aggressive version, aesthetically different from the others alloy wheels 19 inches, black, for upholstery in skin Dark carbon fiber with red stitching on the steering wheel and interior trim and matte black front and rear skis. Let's find out together I strengths и defects of Crossovers compact transalpine.
city
La Renault Kadjar dCi 130 HP 4 × 4 our road test It weighs more than 100 kg more than the front-wheel drive variant we tested last year and can be seen from a stop at traffic lights: 10,5 seconds at 0-100 instead of 9,9.
Otherwise, the Sport Utility of the Régie boasts suspensions soft even in the deepest pits, a high seating position to dominate the flow, and somewhat bulky exterior dimensions (4,45 meters long) combined with a somewhat small rear window. Luckily I parktronic front and back and Rear View Camera standard ...
Outside the city
Il the weight excessive (well over 1,5 tons) Renault Kadjar dCi 130 HP 4 × 4 negatively affects the cornering maneuverability of the vehicle, which already in the 2WD version prefers comfort to driving pleasure.
Uno steering more touristy than sporty, Speed six-speed mechanics with a large gear ratio, helping to reduce consumption and engine (1.6 turbodiesel with 131 hp and 320 Nm of torque), which gives a good response already below 2.000 rpm: these are the main characteristics SUV Reggae.
шосе
It's hard to find a more comfortable compact sports Utility than Renault Cajar in motorway: soft on hollows and with a well-soundproofed cabin. THE brakes very strong, while roll noticeable changes in direction of travel at high speeds can cause certain concerns (unreasonable, the car holds the road well).
through tank giant (65 liters), with a full diesel tank you can drive many kilometers: according to the French manufacturer 1.326, in our opinion, more than 1.000 with a moderate driving style.
Life on board
Compared to her cousin Nissan Qashqai la Renault Cajar boasts trunk more (472 liters, which becomes 1.478 when the rear seats are folded down using a practical system Easy break, consisting of two levers located in the compartment). The space available to passengers is instead practically the same: among the negative marks, we note the absence - on the version Hypnotic our main character road test – fold down passenger seat (standard on less expensive options) Intensity e Angry).
Le finish they are neat and the controls are well placed: the only awkward button is the one that controls Cruise control/ speed limiter, set (as at all Renault) in the central tunnel.
Price and costs
Il price of Renault Kadjar dCi 130 HP 4 × 4 Hypnotic (most expensive version SUV transalpina) object of our road test is 32.150 euro: surcharge (in our opinion unreasonable) in the amount of 2.200 euros compared to the front-wheel drive version.
La standard equipment interesting: opening / closing and starting the engine without a key, longitudinal roof rails, center rear armrest with 2 cup holders, alloy wheels 19 inches black, dual-zone automatic climate control, Cruise control, full LED, fog lights, navigator touch screen da 7 ”, Radio with 6 speakers, Bluetooth e USB, rear view mirrors Negros foldable electrically, electrically adjustable heated driver's seat + manual lumbar adjustment, manually adjustable heated passenger seat, upholstery in skin dark coal, parktronic front and back with Rear View Camera, rear side windows and tinted rear glass and steering wheel, and interior trim with red stitching.
La Warranty of Renault Cajar only tribute to anni with unlimited mileage (minimum required by law), and preservation of value promises to be good as we talk about one thing SUV well equipped engine diesel with a displacement and four-wheel drive... Great I consumption: The house claims 20,4 km / l (and in the city 18,2 km / l) but in reality it is always 15 without problems.
safety
La safety equipment includes air bag front, side and curtain, attack Isofix, stabilization and traction control, traffic sign recognition with limit warning, light and rain sensor e Visio system... The latter device detects road markings through a video camera and warns with a visual and sound signal when crossing a dotted or solid line of the carriageway without activating the arrow.
La Renault Cajar won five stars в Euro NCAP crash test and brakes well, but cornering is not the best maneuverability and roll marked does not give much sensation safety perceived. There visibility The front is good, while the back is small with a small rear window and a rounded tail.
