CarTell take
We haven't driven the Koleos yet. On paper, european production ended in 2023. No confirmed Koleos replacement for Australia and the Rafale flagship is a separate model. Factor resale into the decision.
Why consider it
- Run-out pricing from $34,990 plus on-roads undercuts almost every medium SUV.
- 7-year unlimited-km warranty matches Korea and beats most European brands.
- Genuinely spacious second row, 458 L boot, naturally aspirated 2.5 without turbo or DCT complexity.
What to know
- ANCAP 5-star rating from 2017 has expired, no current rating.
- 8.1 L/100 km combined is uncompetitive against hybrid rivals.
- No hybrid, PHEV or EV option.
Who it suits
Value-led families wanting a sub-$37k drive-away medium SUV with a 7-year warranty, space-first buyers chasing class-leading rear legroom, and light tow rigs wanting 2,000 kg braked on the 4x4 Techno.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Renault Koleos still on sale in Australia?
Yes. The long-serving HZG Koleos continues for Australia and a handful of other RHD markets after European production ended in 2023. Two grades on Renault Australia's site: Evolution and Techno.
Does the Koleos still have an ANCAP rating?
No. The 5-star rating from 2017 has expired. The current Koleos no longer carries an active ANCAP rating.
How much can the Renault Koleos tow?
Pricing opens at $34,990 plus on-roads for the Evolution 4x2 and tops out at $42,490 plus on-roads for the Techno 4x4, across 3 variants. Prices checked October 2026, so confirm with a dealer.
Is there a Koleos replacement coming?

The Renault Koleos in full
Renault is withdrawing the Koleos from Australia once remaining stock sells out. The Koleos is Renault's long-serving medium SUV, the HZG generation that arrived in 2017 and has been progressively facelifted since.

Drivetrain unchanged: a 2.5L naturally aspirated petrol four producing 126 kW and 226 Nm through a CVT, FWD or 4x4 on Techno. Run-out pricing from $34,990 plus on-roads.
