Renault Kadjar (2015-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Keenly priced as a used car	Dull to drive
Spacious and practical interior	Bland interior design
Excellent fuel economy	Infotainment system is too fiddly

Quick Summary

The Renault Kadjar (2015-present) is a family-friendly SUV that shares its underpinnings with the hugely popular Nissan Qashqai. It excels in practicality, providing a spacious cabin with ample room for passengers and one of the largest boots in its class at up to 527 litres. As a used buy, it represents excellent value for money, often priced more keenly than key competitors. While it functions like a well-proportioned family hatchback, its extra size and versatility make it a compelling option.

While strong on value and space, the Kadjar’s driving experience is uninspiring, and earlier models can have a slightly bouncy ride. The engine range is economical, with 1.5-litre diesels capable of 60mpg and petrols achieving a realistic 40-45mpg. Running costs are low, aided by cheap road tax on pre-2017 models and the use of a timing chain on most engines. The interior, though functional, can feel bland and the infotainment system is not as slick as those in rivals, but for buyers prioritising low costs and practicality, the Kadjar is a very sensible choice.

Best for: Value-conscious families, drivers needing a spacious and practical car, and those who prioritise low running costs and fuel economy.

Not ideal for: Buyers who want an exciting or engaging driving experience, a premium-feeling interior, or a slick, modern infotainment system.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Kadjar if: You're looking for a spacious, practical, and economical family SUV, and getting the most for your money is a top priority.

Consider alternatives if: A fun driving experience, a high-quality cabin, and a user-friendly touchscreen are more important to you than outright value.

Competitive Position: The Renault Kadjar is a strong value-driven contender in the competitive family SUV market. It offers more space and lower running costs than many rivals for less money. While it can't match the driving pleasure of a SEAT Ateca or the interior polish of a Peugeot 3008, its combination of practicality and affordability makes it a compelling choice for budget-conscious buyers.
