THE RENAULT KOLEOS HAS BEEN a bit of a surprise package, selling strongly to Aussies looking for something out of the mainstream. That’s about to become even more obvious when the new Koleos Black Edition joins the Koleos range for MY22, sitting between the Zen and Intens 4×2.
“The Koleos Black Edition marks a design highlight in the wider range,’” says Glen Sealey, General Manager, Renault Australia.
“While SUVs are, by far, the most popular vehicle choice for families, that doesn’t mean you have to leave style out of the buying process. We feel the Black Edition allows for style and practicality in one compelling package.”
In addition to the Zen variant’s already healthy equipment list, the Black Edition gains 19-inch dark-grey alloys, gloss black roof rails and door mirrors, sidesteps, ‘Limited’ badging, French flags on the B-pillar, a hands-free powered tailgate and a choice of metallic paint colours including Black (naturally), Grey, or Universal White.
Interior features include black leatherette upholstery with yellow stitching, matte carbon-look interior trim, 8.7-inch central touchscreen in portrait format and ‘Limited’ badging on the chrome door sills.
The Koleos Black Edition is strictly limited to 400 units and is currently available at a stunning national drive-away price of $42,000.
Other changes to the MY22 Koleos range see the new Easy Life Package become available for the Zen variant.
This pack includes a hands-free powered tailgate and 8.7-inch touchscreen in portrait format, and is available for $2000.
