Detailed analysis of the Renault KADJAR X-Mod Energy TCe 130 · 131 CV (2016-2017)
General description
The 2015 Renault KADJAR X-Mod Energy TCe 130 is presented as an attractive option in the compact SUV segment, combining the versatility of an all-terrain vehicle with the efficiency of a modern gasoline engine. This model, with its 131 hp engine and front-wheel drive, seeks to offer a balance between performance and consumption, ideal for daily use and occasional getaways.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the KADJAR, the feeling is one of comfort and ease of handling. The 1.2 TCe 131 hp engine, although not a powerhouse, responds capably in most situations, offering acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.1 seconds and a top speed of 192 km/h. The 6-speed manual gearbox allows precise control, and the speed-sensitive electric power steering contributes to agile driving in the city and stable driving on the highway. The suspension, McPherson type at the front and torsion beam with trailing arm at the rear, filters out road irregularities well, providing a smooth ride. The combined consumption of 5.8 l/100km is a plus for those seeking efficiency.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the 2015 Renault KADJAR is modern and robust, with fluid lines that give it an imposing presence on the road. Its dimensions, with a length of 4449 mm, a width of 1836 mm, and a height of 1607 mm, place it comfortably in the compact SUV segment. The exterior aesthetics are complemented by a well-resolved interior, where functionality and ergonomics are protagonists. The 472-liter trunk is generous for the segment, offering enough space for family luggage. The 215/60 R17 tires, both front and rear, enhance its adventurous look.
Technology and features
In terms of technology, the KADJAR X-Mod Energy TCe 130 incorporates elements that improve the driving experience and safety. The direct injection engine with turbo and intercooler, along with the Stop&Start system, optimizes fuel consumption and reduces emissions. Although it is not an electrified vehicle, its gasoline engine technology is efficient. Electric power steering and ventilated front disc brakes and rear disc brakes contribute to effective vehicle control. The absence of all-wheel drive in this X-Mod version focuses it more on urban and road use, although its ground clearance allows it to tackle simple paths.
Competition
The Renault KADJAR competes in a very crowded segment, facing models such as the Nissan Qashqai (with which it shares a platform), the Hyundai Tucson, the Kia Sportage, the Peugeot 3008, and the SEAT Ateca. Compared to them, the KADJAR stands out for its distinctive design, its driving comfort, and a good balance between performance and consumption in this gasoline version. Its price of €23,949 in 2017 positioned it competitively in the market.
Conclusion
The 2015 Renault KADJAR X-Mod Energy TCe 130 is a balanced and versatile compact SUV, ideal for those looking for a family car with an attractive design, a good level of comfort, and an efficient gasoline engine for daily use. Its habitability and trunk capacity make it practical, while its dynamic behavior is predictable and pleasant. It is a solid option for those who value comfort and economy of use in an SUV format.
