The Renault Kardian 2024 Arrives in the Automotive Market Competing with Several Models Such as Pulse, Nivus, and Even the New TIGGO. The New SUV from Renault Promises to Mark the New Era of the Company as the Main Competitor of Models in the Price Range of R$ 100 Thousand.
The new Renault Kardian officially arrives at Brazilian stores of the French brand with the goal of facing giants. The Renault SUV seeks to change the company’s course in Brazil and become the symbol of the new Renault in the Brazilian market. The model is a B-SUV, a category of smaller compact utility models, a direct rival of the Fiat Pulse and Volkswagen Nivus.
New Renault Kardian Delivers 125 Horsepower
At first glance, it may seem like just a new generation of the Stepway, but in fact, the new Renault SUV inaugurates a series of innovations from the brand in the country. The model has a new platform in Brazil, the RGMP. This platform allows for the application of various powertrains, including hybrid systems, and the development of vehicles with various lengths and wheelbases.
The electronic architecture of the platform allows for the integration of conventional and hybrid propulsion systems, ensuring flexibility and adaptability for the future. Thus, the new Renault Kardian is a more advanced car than the family, Sandero, Duster, and Kwid.

Hyundai has unveiled the Boulder, a square SUV with a body-on-frame design, 37-inch mud tires, and carriage-style doors that seems to be made to take on the Ford Bronco and the Scout Traveller in the United States.

The Toyota Hilux is R$ 75.5 thousand cheaper and bets on the 2.8 turbodiesel engine with up to 204 hp and 50.9 kgfm to catch up with the VW Saveiro, which leads with 4,472 sales.

The new Renault Koleos has a screen exclusively for the passenger that is invisible to the driver, heated rear seats, and 29 assistance systems, but its Chinese competitors cost R$ 40,000 less and deliver more power.
Another innovation is the unprecedented turbo TCe 1.0 flex engine with 125 horsepower, which offers great performance and fuel efficiency, achieving up to 13.9 km/l. This is a late response from Renault to the rival TSI blocks from Volkswagen, T200 from Fiat, T-GDI from Hyundai, and 1.0 Turbo from GM. To compensate, the TCe offers 220 Nm of torque.
This measurement is directly related to the car’s strength. In the new Renault SUV, the torque is above that of its rivals, which could be an advantage in sales. Finally, the new Renault Kardian also offers a novelty in transmission: the seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. This equipment ensures quick gear shifts, common in high-performance cars.

Visually, the model features 16-inch wheels with wheel covers that cleverly mimic wheels, LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, a modular and functional roof rack, and black details. Its design has fluid and robust lines. The Renault SUV is the first manufactured in the country with the Nouvel R logo, highlighted on the front grille.
Inside, the Kardian stands out with an elevated console, an 8-inch multimedia center, and a sound system. In the top-of-the-line option, there are internal ambient lights, an exclusive feature in the category. The car also has a digital cluster, a highly desired item by consumers today.
The equipment list for the new Renault Kardian varies by version and includes 6 airbags, adjustable height and depth steering column, automatic air conditioning, ECO mode, a keyless entry system, electric windows and mirrors, rear parking sensors, seat belt usage alerts for all occupants, and speed limiters, among others.
How Much Will the New SUV from Renault Cost?
The new Renault Kardian has the Evolution Turbo TCe version, its entry option, with an initial price of R$ 112,790. It comes with six airbags, electronic stability controls, hill start assist, as well as rear parking sensors and a rearview camera to facilitate maneuvers.
The top-of-the-line version is the Premiere Edition Turbo TCe, priced at R$ 132,790. It features a set of exclusive resources, such as adaptive cruise control, a Multiview camera, customizable ambient lighting inside, a smartphone induction charger, and LED fog lights. Additionally, the Premiere Edition of the new Renault Kardian stands out with its diamond-cut and darkened 17-inch alloy wheels.
O que a versão topo oferece por 132k tem carro oferecendo por 118k com uma mecânica já conhecida e validada. Aí fica complicado.
Fiz o **** drive, é um bom carro, mas faz, no máximo, 10 km/l com gasolina.
Quem falar que é um Sandero percebe tanto de carros como uma criança de 3 anos 😂
Não vale o preço, é um Sandero Stepway melhorado.
Se derem um pra mim, não importa se é Sandero melhorado, aceito de bom gosto
Eu estou no meu segundo Stepway, tive um primeiro mecânico e agora estou com um automático, e sou apaixonada por ele, se melhorou, estou já louca para pegar esta versão. Sou fã número 01
