French make adds extra items as standard
Renault is offering a refreshed Kangoo light-duty van range, with the French make seemingly loath to make too many changes for its solid performer in the light end of the market.
The MY20 Kangoo range consists of three models – the Compact M/T, Compact A/T and Maxi A/T. The Compact models are powered by an 84kW 1.2-litre petrol engine, while the Maxi comes with an 81kW 1.5-litre diesel unit.
All models now come standard with glazed 180 degree opening rear barn doors, a rear-view camera, automatic dusk-sensing headlights, rain-sensing windscreen wipers and fog lights.
Additional standard features include rear parking sensors, cruise control, hill start assist, Bluetooth hands-free connectivity with audio streaming, folding electric side mirrors and a leather wrapped steering wheel.
