The Renault Koleos is designed to follow the shape and styling of other new Renault models. The C-Shaped LED headlamps are present and then there is that familiar chrome plated grille. However, the Koleos is an SUV as per the designer Laurens van den Acker. He comments: “The challenge was to imagine an SUV that was not only elegant, but also modern and dynamic,” he said. “We accentuated the segment’s familiar cues thanks to taut, powerful, horizontal lines, muscular haunches and high ground clearance”. The SUV stance is prominent by the 213 mm ground clearance which means the SUV can be an all-terrain vehicle. The rear looks like a Megane.
