Renault has finally revealed its new C-segment SUV, the Austral, after months of teasers, writes Brian Byrne.
To replace the Kadjar, the Austral will join the Arkana and the new Megane E-Tech Electric in a revitalised lineup of key models.
Powertrains will include mild-hybrid petrols in three options of power, a full-hybrid based on a 3-cylinder turbocharged petrol with a total output of 200hp. Other technologies will include the latest version of a 4-wheel steering system, and a full suite of the latest advanced driver assist innovations.
Renault also promises a 'crowning jewel' of connectivity and entertainment abilities. More details when Irish arrival and specifications are revealed.
