Renault Grand Austral 2023.

The new seven-seat crossover Renault Grand Austral will offer what the Nissan X-Trail lacks.

Renault recently unveiled the new Austral crossover, which replaced the Kadjar on the European market. The French model has received a lot of modern equipment and premium options.

But recently published reviews about it say that it has ambiguous characteristics. Despite this, a new seven-seat Renault Grand Austral 2024 crossover is out for road tests.

The French model will be built on the CMF-D platform, which was previously the basis of the Nissan X-Trail.

Despite the common basis, the two cars will differ significantly from each other. In particular, Renault is not going to use the Japanese e-Power system on its novelty, but will introduce its own hybrid in the Grand Austral.

Probably, a unit based on 1,2-liter turbo engine will be prepared for the French model. Now such hybrid produces up to 196 hp of useful power.

Compared to the current Austral version, the French novelty will become 38 mm longer. As a result, its wheelbase can reach 2,705 mm, which corresponds to the dimensions of the latest version of Nissan X-Trail.
