Renault Arkana

Renault Arkana is a compact crossover SUV, which appeared in the offer of the well-known French manufacturer in 2019. This car was based on an older platform (Dacia/Renault Duster B0) and intended primarily for sale in Russia. Then, in 2020, a version based on the CMF-B platform was launched, which will be released in South Korea (as the Renault Samsung XM3). In 2021, production was also launched in Kazakhstan.

The car is characterized by its lowering rear and presents itself as an SUV coupe. Previously, this type of body was only seen in cars from a significantly higher price category. Petrol and hybrid versions are available, manual and automatic transmissions according to the equipment level.
