Renault South Africa has added three new derivatives to its local Kadjar range, expanding the line-up to six variants.
Three months after the local launch of the French brand’s latest crossover, it has added three new models, each sporting the Dynamique trim level and each in front-wheel drive flavour.
The first is powered by the automaker’s familiar 1,5-litre turbodiesel, which sees it slot in below the 1,6-litre dCi range-topper. This mill makes 81 kW and 260 N.m, and is mated to a six-speed manual gearbox.
The second newcomer employs the same engine, but links it to a (dry) six-speed dual-clutch transmission. In this application, the 1,5-litre powerplant makes peak torque of 250 N.m.
The final new derivative uses the same 1,2-litre (96 kW and 205 N.m) featured in two of the launch models, but now married to a (wet) seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
