Renault Kangoo Van - Real Van Life (ENG) - Test Drive and Review

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Renault Kangoo is an LCV in production since 1997. It comes as a panel van, as well as a passenger vehicle. Renault Kangoo also was or still is offered as Dacia Dokker, Mercedes-Benz Citan, and Nissan formerly Kubistar, and now Townstar. The Dokker has been replaced with the Kangoo Express - let’s call it the base spec. And then there are the Renault Kangoo Van, and its siblings Citan and Townstar. We’re talking panel vans, because passenger versions are for a different episode. Renault is the only one in the alliance to come with the optional Open Sesame door system. Beside easier curb-side access, Open Sesame also allows for an interesting racking solution.

    Glad to hear it. I guess the closest to this Kangoo would be a Ford Transit Connect, which you get in Canada. I think it's a longer wheelbase car, but generally speaking the same concept. The Kangoo also used to come in two wheelbase lengths. I don't know if they are planning to do the same for this gen.

But because there's lots of America-fanatic neuvo-rich people they've started importing full size American trucks in droves and you can see them every day now. You can't even drive one on a car license, where do people fit them?

    A very smart car. I like vans and buses like this one. They are very helpful when you work on a building site or you work with bigger wooden elements. I used to use Peugeot Cangoo between 2007 and 2010 when I was working in a powertools business and I appreciated cars of this kind. Perfect review marek. Thanks !

    Assuming you don't get swivel racking system, you have 145 cm curb side access. You can parallel park in a tight spot and load/unload long objects. I can see this being useful.
