Renault in Ireland has announced details of new Arkana SUV which is set to go on sale from 2021. The mid-sized compact SUV comes with exterior design which includes a strong coupé silhouette, increased refinement, along with the latest in advanced hybrid technology and connectivity.
The Arkana claims to deliver space and practicality for the whole family in a package only slightly longer than the new Megane hatchback. The new model will be built on the Alliance’s CMF-B modular platform which underpins the new Clio and new Captur, bolstering Renault’s existing SUV line-up, which currently consists of the new Captur and Kadjar.
The cabin of the Arkana features the latest interior finishes and design touches to ensure a premium feel and finish as well as exceptional comfort for all occupants. This is combined with one of the largest digital displays in its segment thanks to two screens, as well as advanced connectivity systems which deliver seamless convenience and minimal distraction for the driver.
The Arkana will be available with a selection of electrified powertrains featuring hybrid technology which ensures refined and efficient performance. The new SUV model will feature Renault’s latest full hybrid E-TECH technology while mild-hybrid technology will be offered with the 1.3-litre four-cylinder turbocharged direct injection TCe petrol engine.
The All-New Arkana will arrive in Irish showrooms in September 2021.
