Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the KADJAR, the sensation is one of comfort and poise. Its 1.5-liter, 110 hp diesel engine, although not an outpouring of power, offers an adequate response for most situations, with a torque of 260 Nm available from 1750 rpm that facilitates overtakes and city driving. The 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 11.9 seconds is not dazzling, but sufficient. The electric and speed-sensitive power steering contributes to agile and precise driving. The combined consumption of 3.9 l/100km is one of its strong points, promising great autonomy thanks to its 55-liter tank. The suspension, McPherson type at the front and trailing arm with torsional element at the rear, filters out road irregularities well, offering a smooth and pleasant ride for all occupants.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the Renault KADJAR is one of its pillars. With fluid and muscular lines, it inherits the aesthetics of its older brother, the Captur, but with a more robust and adventurous personality. Its dimensions of 4449 mm long, 1836 mm wide and 1607 mm high give it an imposing presence on the road. The LED headlights, the distinctive Renault grille and the lower protections give it a modern and dynamic look. The interior, although functional, does not neglect aesthetics, with materials that convey a sense of quality and an ergonomic design that facilitates interaction with the controls. The 5 doors and 5 seats, along with a 472-liter trunk, make it very practical for family use.
