Even though Renault in India has never sold the Kangoo (nor do they intend to for sometime), a lot of you people out there should be knowing what the Kangoo is.

The front-end has been updated to look more powerful and confident

Dubbed the 'leisure activity vehicle', Renault premiered the updated Kangoo earlier this year and sales of the new model have recently started in Europe.

Clearly the most differentiating detail in the Kangoo is its new front nose, which makes it look almost like Dacia like. According to Renault, the new Kangoo has gained maturity. The design is more powerful and more confident with the front-end adopting Renault’s latest styling identity.

  2. Business model: it will be available in the form of a “Business Pack” in France and it would be a mid-range version primarily addressing business users

Engine options for the updated Kangoo include the 1.5 liter dCi engine in three states of tune: 75bhp, 90bhp and 110bhp. A 1.2-liter turbocharged 115bhp TCe engine is available as a petrol as well.
