Renault’s Koleos SUV has been around in much the same guise since 2016 but holds the distinction of being the biggest selling Renault since that time – a good all-rounder and selling well in recent times. A new entry Evolution grade has just been added at $34,990 plus on-road costs undercutting the previous entry Zen model which sold last year at $42,500. The new pricing pits the highly regarded Koleos against newer Chinese SUV rivals, also undercutting the likes of Honda’s CR-V, Mazda’s CX-5, Hyundai’s Tucson and Kia’s Sportage. The new Koleos Evolution is powered by a 2.5-litre turbo petrol engine driving the front wheels through a CVT transmission. Features include leather trim, dual zone climate control, LED headlights, heated front seats and a seven year/unlimited kilometre warranty.
