Renault Kadjar gains new top spec trim level

8 April 2016

The Renault Kadjar has gained a new top trim level, as well as a new dual clutch gearbox.

The new Signature S Nav version launches with the option of the 7-speed efficient Dual Clutch (EDC) automatic gearbox combined with the TCe 130 engine.

Offering drivers greater choice and heightening the appeal of the award-winning Renault Kadjar, the enhancements introduce even higher levels of comfort, convenience and refinement to the family crossover.

Based on the extensively-equipped Signature Nav version, the Signature S Nav specification adds full black leather upholstery with electrically-adjustable driver’s seat height and heated front seats; together with hands-free parking, blind spot warning, rear parking camera and parking sensors to both the front and rear.

Kadjar Signature S Nav is priced from £23,695 OTR – a premium of £1,400 over the Signature Nav but with £1,750 of additional equipment.

Buyers can specify the Signature S Nav with a choice of two diesels and one petrol engine, automatic EDC or manual transmission, and either two-wheel drive or four-wheel drive.

The Signature S Nav’s additional equipment builds upon an extensive specification that includes panoramic sunroof, dual-zone climate control, lane departure warning, traffic sign recognition, hands free keycard, heated and folding door mirrors, R-Link 2 multimedia system with 7” touchscreen, TomTom® LIVE services with Western European mapping, Bluetooth® and hands-free calls and BOSE sound system.

With the launch of this new top-of-the-range version, Renault Kadjar customers are now able to choose from a total of five trim levels.

The availability of the advanced, highly responsive 7-speed EDC gearbox on the flexible ENERGY TCe130 engine allows buyers, from Dynamique Nav trim upwards, to order an automatic, petrol-engined Renault Kadjar for the first time. Priced at £1,200 more than the equivalent manual version, the EDC dual clutch transmission offers CO2 output and combined fuel consumption almost the same as that of the manual.
